Send SMS Text Messages from Act! to Customers, Suppliers, Candidates, Attendees, or to any contact, in your Act! database
Act! Mobile Messenger (AMM) has been designed to ‘do what it says’ – with AMM you can now send SMS messages with 480 characters !
Installation in multi-user environment will need planning and configuring to ensure that templates are centrally held and they have the correct content – as Act! Certified Consultants and experience of implementing AMM for several multi users sites we can assist you with this.
