SalesLogix v7.5 is in the works.
It's the beginning of another work week and I hope everyone had a great weekend. I took a trip out to Fort Collins, CO (I've never been there) to visit a friend and had a wonderful time! Now on to business...
I've caught wind that the next version of SalesLogix is coming, and though there is no set date for the release I do have some information about the new features that will be included. Interested? Maybe excited? Then keep reading!
Comprehensive Web CRM
- Customer Service/Support Enhancements: Create and manage defects, returns, contracts, and assets via the Web.
- Create Sales Orders: Create new sales orders via the Web.
Access Your CRM Data Anytime, Anywhere
- Disconnected Web Client: In the new release you can continue working in SalesLogix if you are disconnected from the Internet and you won't have to sacrifice usability.
Manage Your Lead Efficiently
- Lead Import Wizard: If you've got a hot lead you want to get it into your system fast! Now you'll be able to import your leads, performs lead de-duplication, and distribute leads automatically.
List Management for Simplified Access to Information
- Summary View: Soon you won't have to drill down into the details to see important information, instead you will be able to view a summary.
- List Improvements: Improve how you organize and use your data with powerful data filters, the ability to create ad-hoc groups, and the ability to select multiple records at once.
Usability Enhancements for Increased Productivity
- Enhanced User Interface: In the next release the toolbar and header are being redesigned, a new title bar added, and a collapsible left navigation area - pretty cool!
- Increased Right-Mouse Button Capabilities: Soon you'll be able to right-click in tab areas and lists.
- Multi-Tab Expansion: Customize your workspace and add as many middle panes as you see fit.
- Improved Drop and Drag Tabs: What tab did you move and to where? New visual indicators will now show you this information.
- Attachment Improvements: Associate attachments to meetings, phone calls, to-dos, emails, notes and personal activities. Captured emails will be opened in an email editor - you will see the email in the original format including HTML links, images, etc. Another thing to look forward to - only one copy of an attachment that is sent to multiple contacts will be stored in SalesLogix allowing you to conserve disk space.
- A Redesigned Lookup: In the Web client the Lookup pop-ups have been redesigned with enhanced power and flexibility. This great feature will provide you with a better experience and improved search capabilities.
I will keep you posted as I learn more but I hope this information gets you excited for what is to come in SalesLogix v7.5!
