Ever since the introduction of custom tables, Act! users have wanted similar type list view tools for the regular tables - Contacts, Groups, Companies, and Opportunities. And why not, custom tables allowed you to search across all columns, narrow results by filtering one or more columns at a time, group them into segments, and even do calculations...

TopSuite products are time-tested add-ons that we acquired and updated last year, and these include Keystroke Designer (custom tables), Dash (reporting), and Alerts (automation).

At the end of last year, Keystroke announced a major update to our Qsales API to help all customers looking to integrate Act! with QuickBooks save money. Thanks to the new “Personal Mode” option, even single users can use the same license to login into QuickBooks as they do with Qsales. The net result is all teams, big or small, can upgrade to...

Since last month’s launch of Qsales v13, we’ve received a lot of great feedback on the features and capabilities of this new version, but admittedly single users have been less pleased. Why?

As we approach the release of Qsales v13 (expected in early November 2021), we have to acknowledge a few lessons we've learned during this process. The first is this project evolved into a much larger undertaking than we initially imagined. With the QuickBooks SDK being 32-bit, making Qsales compatible with the new 64-bit version of Act! required...

In mid-September, Act v24 was released, which was the first 64-bit version of the Act! product ever made. This was a big step in Act!'s evolution, so we're excited to announce that in the coming few week's we'll be releasing v24 compatible versions of Keystroke Designer, Dash, and Alerts. Earlier this week we deployed the new version of Dash...

Since we acquired Qsales from Effective Solutions in May, we had a vision for the product that would both improve the integration between Act! and QuickBooks, while reducing costs. After several months of extensive development, we're pleased to report the new Qsales v13 has fulfilled that vision, and has just entered the first stage of beta...

Each year most of us receive well-wishes on our birthday. Often they’re kind messages on social media or warm sentiments by email, and while they’re all sincere, few follow up with any gift aside from close friends and family. At Keystroke, we want to be a bit different, which is why we’re celebrating your special day with both a greeting and a...
