Review: DayLite is powerful and very useful, but can be quite frustrating at times. However, it does define sales management on the Mac. Reporting can use a lot of help.

Summary: I can't understand it
Review: I bought Daylite to replace my ACT! contact manager when I switched from PC to Mac. It doesn't come with a printed manual, althought they will sell you one for an additional $37 online if you agree to let them use your contact information for marketing purposes. If you don't agree (who would?) you can't buy the manual!

ACT! makes sense to me. It's simple to use and effective. Although I'm now committted to using Daylite, it is really confusing. It seems like it is trying to reinvent contact software, but I don't want to reinvent anything, I just want to get to work.

Summary: I am not as impressed as I thought
Review: I have changed my mind about this software. It seemed easy and seemless transition from ACT but now that we are networked, we are running into all kinds of problems. The biggest problem is that phone support is no longer an option. You have to pay for that as well. It takes for ever to get quetions answered and, in the meantime, things just get more messed up. I know there are not many options for small MAC users and I thought this was the best option out there. But given that the structure is not intuitive and that the support is pitiful, I would look long and hard before settling on this product

Summary: Works well for me
Review: I like this software very much indeed. Had no experience of ACT, so wasn't expecting it to be an imitation of that.
A pdf version of the manual was easy to download and even easier to read. It walked me through the basics. There were also a variety of quicktime movies on the site that showed me what to do.
In addition, I found it easy to customise to my specifications.
I have a small home-based business that relies on tracking a large customer base, and several different projects at once. Now I can't imagine how I could do without it.
Very versatile, highly customisable, but immediately useful.
What I'm looking for now is something similar that I can recommend to a windows-using client.
