Features & Benefits
|

Have all kinds of lists under control.
The Free Form System is very special and you should use it often. Basically,
you add a new form for every possible list you can think of (even lists
of live, executable media). You then have unlimited capabilities under
that "form". Use it for Passwords, Bank Accounts, Books, Courses,
Cars, Personal Inventory, Websites, Ideas, Credit Cards, MP3 and other
Music Files, Documents, PDF files, Images, Videos and much more). |
|
|
Free Forms also acts as unlimited
User Defined Fields.
You can link a Free Form (and its unlimited records) to a contact, therefore
having unlimited User Defined Fields for this contact. For example a big
company might have many, even hundreds, of different emails or phone numbers
or addresses, and you can have them all under control with Free Forms.
|
|
|
Its unique Action Buttons are many
buttons in one.
Every record of a Free Form has an Action Button (also in other places
of the program). Action Buttons act differently based on the content in
the field without further user intervention. So, if the field content
is an email, it will open the integrated Email System; if the content
is a URL, it will open your browser on that webpage; if it is a phone
number, it will try to dial the number through your TAPI system; if you
precede a URL with the word GRAB then it will get that webpage from the
Internet and either save it on your hard drive or in your Windows clipboard
for further use; if you precede your content with an equal sign (=), it
will act as a calculator, ideal for quick checkbook balances; if you have
a Word, Excel, Powerpoint or any other file, it will open your document
in the correct application. If you have an MP3 or WAV, it will play directly;
if you have an image file address, it will open; if you have a contact
ID, it will jump to that contact. Finally, you can use it to perform searches
in Google. |
|
|
Search Google from previously selected
keyword list.
The Free Forms system is so versatile that without any changes it can
search Google from keywords in lists. Imagine, for example, that you sell
widgets and you search Google frequently for certain keywords to check
your competitor. Normally, you have to go to Google and type your keyword
lists each and every time in order to get your results. With the Free
Form system, you simply have that list in one form. Click the Action Button
and the search is performed immediately, saving time and making the searching
very accurate and fast. |
|
|
Use it as a slideshow or Image Catalog
You can import a whole image directory (or many if you want) either
by reference or by actually copying images. You can then see those images
inside the program as a slideshow or in catalog view, ideal when you need
to find a image fast or simply for a quick review of images in a directory.
|
X
|
|
Use one field for different purposes.
You can even use the same field for multiple purposes. For example,
start the field with an URL then use the same field for comments on that
URL. The result is that the Action Button will still open the URL webpage
and you have your notes in the same field. |
|
|
Export Contacts that you do not use
too often.
Certainly, it is a waste of space having sometimes thousands of contacts
in your database that you rarely use. For example, you might buy a list
of Mortgage Brokers that you want to promote your service to. That list
could be pretty large, usually in the thousands of records but once you
send them an email or letter, you do not want to have them in your contact
database. This special tool allows you to export any quantity of records
to a special section in the Free Form system where they do not take any
space in your database, but they are always accessible to restore them
when needed. So, in this case, you will only have a line in your Free
Forms that will represent that long list and, of course, you can use your
own description to know exactly what that list is. |
|
|
Use it for Company Manuals, Training
Courses, Company Logos,etc.
The Free Form system is ideal for managing Company Manuals, Training
Courses and similar material. Just simply browse to the file from inside
the Free Form and link to it. This way you can have an organized and unlimited
list of your printed material (Word documents, Brochures, etc) that are
only a click away. |
|
|
Record and Manage all your Phone
conversations.
Every line in any Free Form has recording capabilities. You could, for
instance, have a different Free Form for some clients and record all your
phone conversations with them (check your local laws). This is ideal to
review your verbal contract, authorizations and much more. |

the fields automatically... fields in the Contacts database like name,
address, User Defined Fields, etc. Another example would be an eBay purchase;

data into corresponding locations in your database), and lastly add the
additional PayPal payment details to the record you just created, fast
and easy. |

hides many of the options and fields for a more uncluttered view. We feel
that you benefit greatly from that which lies in the Advanced mode. |

Find anything with ease... and we
mean it.
As opposed to other software that forces you to go through many steps
just to perform the simplest of searches, our program takes a direct approach.
First, you click on the FIND button (which is always in plain view, or
use its shortcut: Control+4). Then, you type any word or combinations
of words. The program will look in the Name, Company, Phone Numbers, Emails,
URL, Keywords, Products, Referrals and Related fields in one pass, presenting
the results immediately. Most importantly, the order of words does not
change the result (even spanning fields, where John Smith, with his occupation
as "realtor", can be found using "John", "Smith
John", or even "John Real"). Additionally, the program
saves your latest keyword searches, so it is just a matter of selecting
from a pull-down list and pressing enter to find something. For advanced
searches, you can perform a Full Find, which can use Boolean logic. The
shortcut Control+4 is available in other sections of the program for a
consistent, fast and zero-frustration experience. |

Use Memorize Groups for frequently
used groups.
Let's say that you select a group of mortgage brokers frequently to
send them your latest newsletter. In this case, it is very easy to create
a Memorized Group that you can select at any moment and have all related
records selected instantaneously. You can have unlimited Memorized Groups.
|

On-The-Fly Groups makes complex selections
a breeze.
Our unique On-The-Fly Group consists of an ingenious approach to select
records that would otherwise be too difficult or even impossible to select.
For example, imagine that you want to select all Mortgage Brokers in the
state of Florida, but you do not want to include any in the city of Miami.
This could be achieved using Boolean logic, but this is difficult for
many people; our approach is much simpler. You would select all Mortgage
Brokers in Florida first. Add them to an On-The-Fly group. Then select
those living in Miami and click on the On-The-Fly SUBSTRACT button. The
RESULT button will then show this sort-of-complex group. Of course, you
can build on this with unlimited "ADDs" and "SUBSTRACTs"
. Save this result to a Memorized Group if you wish. |
|
|
TO-DO Groups when you need to work
on batches.
Imagine that you need to select all Mortgage Brokers in Florida (approximately
6000) and that you want to interact with 100 of them a day. In this situation,
most software programs fail to do the job. With CMM, simply select a group
of all brokers and then ADD them to the TO-DO group (you can subtract
too), and select the quantity you want to interact with (say 100), and
then, the first 100 will be selected. When finished interacting with these
100, a simple click on the DONE and NEXT buttons selects the next 100.
At any moment, you can see your whole group (6000), your DONE group, or
the NEXT group. |

Look for Maps based on your Customers
address and save them in the program.
Just by clicking on the MAP button, you can display an address map based
on the address of your customer. Then, simply copy the map picture and
paste it into the OBJECT field in the Contacts Screen for viewing, printing,
etc. This is ideal when you have a customer on the phone and want to relate
his/her address with some comments about being near a Street, etc. |
|
|
Check for Duplicates with ease.
One of the most annoying problems is having duplicates in your database.
Our program has three ways to checks for duplicates: by name, by email,
and/or by phone number. With just one click you can check for duplicates
based on any of these three fields. Most importantly, it can display the
duplicates based on being old, new or all duplicates. This way you can
decide which ones to delete or not. In general, you can check for duplicates
of any field by using the Full Find feature. |

Use specific Snippets in many fields
of your Contact database.
As you know, Snippets are short (or long) pieces of text that you can
paste very easily and consistently in your fields. These Snippets are
specific to the field you are in so you won't see the Notes Snippets in
the Related-To Snippets or Keywords Snippets. It makes your entry work
easier and consistent from record to record. |
|
|
Dial Phone Numbers with just one
click (and see more than just numbers)
All phone numbers can be dialed with just one click based on rules set
up in the Setup section. Also, phone numbers can be formatted automatically
based on Country. Lastly, you can add text after phone numbers to explain
or add extensions etc. without interfering with the formatted display
(done automatically for you) of the number. |
|
|
Select Email Templates to send to
a Customer with one click.
Imagine that you want to send a welcome email to any new customer that
calls you. Nothing can be easier: simply create a Personalized Template
which will work with all customers and then, select that one from the
template list and click on the Email Send icon. Your Personalized Email
will be created in the Outbox of the Email System. The personalized e-mail
gives a professional, "big" look. |
|
|
Instant Filtering based on content.
Throughout the program and in the Contact screen, there are "Black
Arrow" icons. When you click on those, the database gets filtered
by the content of the field to the left. For example, if you are positioned
on a record whose State is FL, then by clicking on the Black Arrow icon
next to "FL", the database will be filtered and show only records
whose State is FL. It is a fast way to find meaningful data in an instant.
You have also Black Arrow icons in User Defined Fields so you can select
records with the same data in UDFs. |
|
|
Navigate your database with ease,
including sorting in Form View.
As opposed to the majority of programs that mostly display data in a
List View, you will mostly interact with this one in the Form View (though
you can see a List View, too). Even being in Form View, you can Sort your
records by many fields, directly with just one click, and easily going
to the top or bottom of those records once sorted, but also, you can un-sort
the records. By clicking the ALL button in the Navigation bar, you can
un-sort the database. Also, if you are positioned in any record and click
the ALL button, you will select all records but stay on the same record
you are on at the moment, allowing you to more back and forth looking
for records that you know are nearby. Additionally, you have a GO TO button
that will let you jump to a record number based on Sorting and Selection.
So, if you had selected 6000 records from a 50,000 records database, you
can Sort by name (just click on the Name Sort icon) and then go to record
3000 in an instant. You can also OMIT (that is: hiding, as opposed to
deleting) records from groups fast and efficiently. Invaluable... |

Record Notes in your own Voice, and
Playing them back.
Every record has Recording & Playback buttons. Use them to record,
in your own voice, notes about the Client or to record Phone conversations
(check local laws about this). |

Validate Credit Card and Charge them
from the Contact Screen
Just by entering the Credit Card number in the field, it gets validated
and shows what type it is (Visa, Master, etc) Also, with one click you
can interact with your Internet Merchant Account Gateway and charge your
clients' credit cards. |

Use Default Labels for your User
Defined Fields and still be able to change them
Usually, you want to use default label titles for your User Defined
Fields (and you can accomplish this very easily in the Setup Section),
but our unique approach lets you change each and every label independently.
Therefore, you can create a Contact record and have the word "ID"
in the User Defined Field # 10 as default, but you can perfectly change
that label to the word "Additional Email" ONLY for this record
without disturbing previous or newly created records. This feature is
invaluable to save space and to be more efficient. |

that you put on your clipboard. It can create Contact records that are
automatically populated with those email addresses. You can, for example,
copy to your clipboard a page with emails from a website and create contact
records in one pass for marketing purposes, etc. |

Independently format your phone numbers
It is very easy to program different formats for phone numbers based
on countries. Therefore, for USA , you can use (###) ### - #### while
for Australia you can use ### - ## - # - #### - ####
Then, when you add a Contact record for Australia, its Phone numbers
will be formatted as programmed. |
