"We have been long time users of ACT!™
The Add-on products from eGrabber have been extremely
useful in our use of ACT!™. The AddressGrabber and eMail-Lead
Grabber have been very useful in automating data entry
and lead capture.
We have had issues with data duplicates in ACT!™. ACT!™ 2005-2007 does not
include a very robust duplicate checking feature. The Duplicate checking is
very rudimentary and basic. It requires manual checking of each duplicate
record in groups of two. If there is more than 2 duplicate records for a
given contact, you have to eliminate each record 2 at a time manually.
We maintain several databases with records up to 30,000 each. Manual
duplicate checking was not practical or feasible. We had searched for a
Duplicate Checking program for ACT!™ 2006 and could not find one to meet our
needs. A local ACT!™ Certified Consultant recommend a NEW tool from
eGrabber, eGrabber DupChecker.
The software was easy to install. The software fully integrates with ACT!™.
You import the ACT database into DupChecker and it performs the dup check
automatically. It gives a preview of the duplicate records. You can
manually or automatically merge the duplicate records. The dup checking
process is so good, there is not need to manually preview each merge. The
automatic mode worked flawlessly. The record history shows the details of
each merged record.
An eGrabber™ engineer helped install and demonstrated all the features with a
GoToMeeting session. Support is excellent."

"DupChecker is the best way to remove duplicates from your ACT program.
Most duplicate checkers only find duplicates if the names are spelled
exactly the same way. DupChecker instead uses the fuzzy logic and finds
names that appear to be a match. Why is this important? I had one
client that had over 2000 duplicates. Different sales reps were
entering the same contact so sometimes it was John Smith, John K Smith,
Jon Smit and using DupChecker, we were able to clear these all up. If
you need to clean up your database, DupChecker is a great tool to use!"
