Life After PHONEslips.

What does the end of PHONEslips mean to you as a PHONEslips user?

Well, you can keep using PHONEslips after December 31, 2019 but none of the online services will be available.  If you have been using the online services then that means that PHONEslips will become a lot less usable to you.

So maybe you’re now looking for something to replace PHONEslips.

We can help you with that.

Like PHONEslips, PhonePad enables you to quickly and easily log phone calls.  Featuring a customizable phone message form, and auto complete, logging phone calls is easy and intuitive.

All of your incoming messages are stored in your personal Inbox.  Incoming calls you log are easily accessible in the Sent folder, and outgoing calls are, surprise, surprise, stored in the Outgoing folder.

When you delete a message it goes into your Deleted folder where it stays for 14 days (or whatever length of time you configure).  Deleted messages can be easily undeleted.

Creating Personal, Public and Group folders will help you organize your phone message efficiently.  Just drag and drop the messages into a folder.  Folders can have sub-folders, which can be several levels deep, allowing you to organize your folders logically.

Someone away and you need to access their Inbox?  Your PhonePad administrator can give you access to the other user’s Inbox.  This is also ideal for receptionists, executive assistants and anyone else who needs to access the Inboxes of other users.

Extensive follow up tools not only help you follow up calls on time, they provide a complete history of all interaction between you and your clients.

Keep unlimited follow up notes for every call.  These can be accessible by other users, making it easy to coordinate follow up action.

Mark a message for follow up, and mark them as completed when you’re done.  Other users will be able to see that no further action is required.

Set reminders so that you remember to follow up calls on time.

PhonePad automatically maintains a complete history of all phone calls for every client, for years if you want, giving you a full chronological record.

Comprehensive search options provide a fast way of finding messages.  You can search by caller, company, phone number (or partial phone number in case you can’t remember the whole number), and even the contents of messages.  Plus more.

Easily categorize messages using a variety of fields.

The expansive Address Book has an abundance of fields for storing all sorts of information about your clients.

Users have a virtual bonanza of custom settings they can apply.  And system administrators can use System Rules to apply settings to all users.

Not in the office?  You can have your messages automatically forwarded to you by email, SMS and Pushover.  You set the criteria for when you want these messages forwarded.

And just because you’re not in the office doesn’t mean you can’t access PhonePad.  PhonePad Remote is included with PhonePad (there are no additional charges for this) so you can access PhonePad from anywhere in the world, just as if you were in the office.

Office Managers will love the management tools built into PhonePad.  Generate performance statistics, reports, charts, and other information.  See at a glance how well each user is managing their phone messages can call backs.  These tools will help you track and manage your phone messages more efficiently, and will help you maintain an overall picture of how your business is going and identify any bottlenecks.

Our learning center features video tutorials to take you step-by-step through PhonePad’s features.

PhonePad features Auto-Discovery, which is a zero-configuration system.  Just install PhonePad and away you go.

Updates are released as server updates.  There’s no need to update workstations manually as PhonePad Server will do this for you automatically.

Two things you won’t find in PhonePad – yet.  A calendar and mobile app.  But don’t worry, we are developing these right now.

Pricing of PhonePad is very competitive compared to other options.  You will probably find it is much less than you paid for PHONEslips, and less than you will pay for most of our competitors.  Oh, and there are no monthly fees.  Our licenses are perpetual, meaning there is a one-time cost only.

To top it all off, you can try PhonePad on us.  Download it and try it free for 60 days (yes, that’s two whole months) without any obligation whatsoever.

We provide free email support, and can even remote connect to help you.

Did I mention, we have been in business for nearly 28 years.

So the bottom line is, even though PHONEslips is pretty much done, you do have a great alternative system you can switch to that is still under active development and will be for many, many years to come.  We are continually updating and enhancing PhonePad (just look through our past blog posts to see that updates are quite regular).

Why not download it today and start using it right away.

PS  As PhonePad helps you save time and money by improving workflow and efficiency, many users find that PhonePad pays for itself before the trial period has finished!
