Keystroke is pleased to announce the release of our new Act! Hosting Calculator called the Hosting Konfigurator. We recognize that there are many considerations to go into database hosting, so the objective of the Hosting Konfigurator is to simplify all those options, and to help you arrive at a cost that reflects your needs.
The reality is most Act! users think of hosting their database in binary terms – it’s hosted or not hosted, when in fact many considerations can go into database hosting, including the following:
Which package to select based on performance- Which package to select based on the Act! version - for example, Act! Pro, Act! Premium (off-plan), or Act! Premium (subscription)
- Which package to select based on database size (10GB size or greater)
- Which package to select based on support needs
- Which package to select based on the number of databases (maybe you need more than one?)
- Which package to select based on how you consume the Act! data (ie., desktop, cloud, or both)
- And which package to select based on your Act! add-ons (custom tables, Handheld Contact, etc).
It’s no longer simply a matter of whether you need hosting any more. The Hosting Konfigurator guides you through the process based on simple, non-technical questions to help you arrive at a tailor made solution, and then it instantly prepares a quote for you. The Hosting Konfigurator even shows you which versions of Act! are supported with each hosting package, as well as how to purchase new licensing if need.
If you've ever considered moving away from self-hosting, with all the pitfalls & costs associated with that, try our new Hosting Konfigurator to determine whether the costs you're trying to avoid are really saving you money.
