SalesNexus (News - Alert) announced that users of its online CRM and Email Marketing solution can now upload ACT! Databases to the Web instantly and automatically. The SalesNexus online CRM helps sales teams to generate more leads close more sales and retain customers for a longer period.

Texas-based SalesNexus is a software development company dedicated to customer relationship management (CRM), sales force automation and marketing automation for small- to mid-size businesses.

Craig Klein (News - Alert), founder and CEO of SalesNexus said in a release, “While it’s expensive to migrate your ACT! database into competing online CRM solutions like Salesforce.com (News - Alert), it’s also quite time consuming.”

“That means a business that wants to use Salesforce.com has to stop using their sales automation system for a week or more while someone migrates it for them. Now, a business using ACT! can upload it to SalesNexus and continue using the valuable customer histories, sales pipeline, etc. the same day. There’s zero down time!” stated Klein.

According to company sources this allows automatic, instant import for notes, history, sales opportunities, calendars and custom fields.

ACT! serves as the original sales contact manager and several million salespeople and businesses employ it to maintain a database of customer histories and so on. In case businesses wanted to move to cloud-based or SaaS (News - Alert) (Software as a Service) CRM solutions and Email Marketing systems they had to make a tough choice between spending heavily on consultants to migrate their ACT! database or just omit volumes of notes and customer histories collected in ACT!

SalesNexus sources revealed that the new ACT! database import capability eliminates this problem as it offers a complete and automatic ACT! migration tool that includes all the valuable notes and histories of customer relationships.

Businesses that used ACT! for long will now leverage the capabilities of the Web-based, anywhere access of online CRMs and online Email Marketing systems. SalesNexus, synergizes all the capabilities in one easy-to-use Web-based CRM solution. This enables ACT! users to put all customer relationship information online in minutes so as to start off e-mail marketing campaigns immediately to serve customers better, explained officials.

In August 2010 SalesNexus announced the launch of a completely integrated e-mail marketing suite for powering sales teams for lead nurturing.
