2.0 out of 5 stars The older version had more features, unlimited access, June 17, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Select Phone (CD-ROM)

I purchased this program first in 1998. It was outstanding as a sales lead tool. You could input the SIC (Standard Industrial Code)and retrieve listings of business leads. You could then import them into Streets Plus seamlessly, and it would generate a map with how ever many businesses you saved in your worksheet. This produced a "connect the dots" travel route on one page, and made it unbelievably easy to plan a sales day filled with 10 - 12 calls, with the most efficient route. "Windsheild time" was cut down by about 70%. Unfortunately, they dropped the mapping feature on this latest version, and they also now limit the amount of leads you can actually access to about 3,000 which is a hummingbird egg compared to the old ostrich egg. The remaining names have to be purchased through a download at an unreasonable price in my opinion. What a shame. I am now in search of another program.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Telephone Tool, June 19, 2000

The purpose of purchasing Select Phone was to have a source for multiple listings in specific regions. Select Phone delivered. It is easy to use and the geographic target and neighbor search features made it a bargain. The only draw back is the limit of 2500 records for the software when exporting. Additional records must be purchased thru customer service at InfoUSA at 8¢ each.

3.0 out of 5 stars Select Phone is decent but lacking punch, June 14, 2000

Select Phone is a good product but make sure you know what you are getting. If you are planning on doing a lot of labels or lists, you can't extract all the names you need. It is a good program though that has plenty of names from all across the country.
