Some of the suggestions I will be posting here shortly relate to features and capabilities that I had on my very old version of ACT! that I just migrated from. Why go backwards?

Why change or omit a feature that is in an earlier version. Some of us use these obscure features, then when we upgrade, they are not there. So it causes me to ask myself "Why do I upgrade?"  </p><p>Stop omitting features, just keep adding and improving on them.</p><p> </p> Wed, 27 Jan 2010 23:34:26 GMT http://community.act.com/t5/SHARE-YOUR-IDEAS/I-have-an-idea-Let-s-not-take-out-features-and-functions-that/idc-p/62460 EJFletcher 2010-01-27T23:34:26Z http://community.act.com/t5/SHARE-YOUR-IDEAS/I-have-an-idea-Let-s-not-take-out-features-and-functions-that/idc-p/63122 Hi, Kevin:  The View Groups/Companies functionality has been added back into ACT! 2010 SP1. Fri, 05 Feb 2010 15:34:57 GMT http://community.act.com/t5/SHARE-YOUR-IDEAS/I-have-an-idea-Let-s-not-take-out-features-and-functions-that/idc-p/63122 kstalcup 2010-02-05T15:34:57Z http://community.act.com/t5/SHARE-YOUR-IDEAS/I-have-an-idea-Let-s-not-take-out-features-and-functions-that/idc-p/63128 <p>Katherine, that's great news.  I think the new UI is just fantastic - lookups have never been so easy - it's so intuitive - people who are upgrading love it, and the Web Info tab is actually generating oohs and aahs - it's been a long time since I've heard oohs and aahs.  Getting the History button along the Big Easy buttons is huge - it makes it so obvious.</p><p> </p><p>Getting the Groups/Companies back in will eliminate a big sticking point.</p><p> </p><p>Thanks to Prod Eng'g and Prod Mgmt for making this happen.</p><p> </p><p>Kevin</p> Fri, 05 Feb 2010 15:54:45 GMT http://community.act.com/t5/SHARE-YOUR-IDEAS/I-have-an-idea-Let-s-not-take-out-features-and-functions-that/idc-p/63128 chieff 2010-02-05T15:54:45Z http://community.act.com/t5/SHARE-YOUR-IDEAS/I-have-an-idea-Let-s-not-take-out-features-and-functions-that/idc-p/63136 Fri, 05 Feb 2010 16:32:01 GMT http://community.act.com/t5/SHARE-YOUR-IDEAS/I-have-an-idea-Let-s-not-take-out-features-and-functions-that/idc-p/63136 kstalcup 2010-02-05T16:32:01Z http://community.act.com/t5/SHARE-YOUR-IDEAS/I-have-an-idea-Let-s-not-take-out-features-and-functions-that/idc-p/66478 If ACT are thinking of dropping a feature, why not just make it another option in Preferences and we can drop it ourselves if we want to or dont use the feature?
