UKNM: Re: Database for a small business

[Simon Heywood]

There is probably about 500


The well-known and popular ones seem to be...

Maximiser from Multi-active (they have a really helpful UK partner whose

name I forgot) Good relatively inexpensive product.  Easy to transfer

records from one database to another.  It works!


Act! recently re-purchased by its creator


Responsys for email emphasis


Oracle and Sun for application service provider model


MS Outlook (hmmm)


Some rely on those vbs business card attachment things which I thought

seemed a good idea but nobody in UK seems to want to know about.



There are some fantastic products further up the scale eg Onyx, Quintus,

Applix etc


I did a big listing once if you are that interested.
