For years, Act! has helped you manage the details that matter most in your customer relationships. Contact information, notes, emails, activities, and history have always lived in one reliable place. 

With Act! Advantage, that foundation goes further. 

Act! Advantage expands CRM beyond contact management and puts Act! at the centre of your entire front office. Sales processes, customer data, and engagement tools now work together in one connected experience, helping you respond faster, stay organised, and move deals forward with confidence. 

One of the clearest examples of this expanded value is Sales Accelerators. 

What are Sales Accelerators?

Sales Accelerators in Act! Advantage are built to reduce friction in the sales process and help you close deals faster. Instead of relying on disconnected tools or third-party add-ons, these capabilities are fully integrated into Act! and connected directly to your customer data. 

Every quote, meeting, and event becomes part of the relationship history, giving you better visibility, better timing, and better follow-up. 

The result is a more professional sales experience for your team and a smoother buying experience for your prospects. 

Move deals forward with Interactive Quotes 

Sending a quote is a critical moment in the sales cycle. Interactive Quotes in Act! Advantage help you make the most of it. 

Create and send professional, customisable quotes directly from Act!. When a quote is sent, Act! automatically creates an opportunity, schedules follow-up activities, and tracks engagement so you know when a quote is opened, viewed, or accepted. 

This real-time insight helps you follow up at the right moment, keep momentum high, and reduce delays that can stall a deal. 

Eliminate back-and-forth with online appointment scheduling 

Scheduling meetings should be simple. Online Appointment Scheduling in Act! Advantage allows prospects and customers to book time with you based on availability you control. 

Whether it is a discovery call, demo, consultation, or review, appointments are booked without endless emails or phone calls. Every booking is automatically captured in Act!, keeping calendars and customer records in sync. 

Less coordination means faster conversations and a more polished experience for your customers. 

Manage events without extra work 

Events are a powerful way to engage prospects and strengthen relationships. With Online Event Management in Act! Advantage, you can manage invitations, registrations, and attendance directly inside Act!. 

Event interactions are automatically tied to contact records, giving you a clear view of engagement and making follow-up easier and more effective. While Act! handles the logistics, you can focus on building connections that lead to new opportunities. 

One connected sales experience 

Individually, each Sales Accelerator delivers value. Together, they create a more connected and efficient sales process. 

By keeping quotes, appointments, events, and follow-ups inside Act!, Act! Advantage removes the need for disconnected tools and manual data entry. Every interaction is captured in one place, giving you greater visibility and control over your pipeline. 

CRM and so much more 

Sales Accelerators are one part of what makes Act! Advantage more than a traditional CRM. When combined with Marketing and Productivity Accelerators, Act! Advantage becomes the central hub for managing relationships across your entire front office.
