Handy Tech North America Now Offers Handy CMS
Handy Tech North America now offers Handy CMS, the new online Contact
Management System developed with an emphasis on accessibility.
Customers ranging in size from a sole proprietorship to large companies and
government agencies will enjoy the quick, easy and efficient method of
accessing important client and customer information in a secure, convenient
and totally accessible environment.
Handy CMS does away with the limitations of desktop based contact management
software as well as the need to purchase multiple single user or expensive
site licenses.
A convenient low monthly or annual subscription fee provides businesses and
organizations with a reliable and scalable customer relations tool while
saving them thousands of dollars in up-front software costs.
Also, Handy CMS subscribers never pay a penny extra to take advantage of new
features or improvements as is the case with desktop based software
packages, because improvements are available to all Handy CMS subscribers as
they are released.
"Handy CMS has proven to be an extraordinary productivity and communication
tool for my company", says Handy Tech North America Founder and President
Earle Harrison". "Although there are already some very good contact
management systems in existence, people who are blind or have low vision
have always been hard pressed to find one that offered full access
throughout the entire program. Historically it has been necessary for screen
reader manufacturers to devote resources toward customizing these programs
in order for screen reader users to gain access to only a small fraction of
features for a particular contact management software program".
The Handy CMS user interface is HTML based so it may be accessed from just
about any web browser or device. So whether you are using a Windows based
PC, Apple Macintosh computer, cell phone or PDA, Handy CMS offers quick,
easy and secure access to your contact's information anytime and from
anywhere you have an Internet connection.
Handy CMS features currently include:
* An easy to use Web interface regardless of platform
* Quick search feature by category
* Task manager which allows tasks to be associated with specific
contacts and the ability to task other users on the system
* A calendar which allows appointments to be scheduled by other users
and a day, week and month views
* Quick note for documentation of customer interactions
* A company-wide virtual bulletin board
* The ability for screen reader users to navigate by various elements
such as heading style, tables and with the use of short cut keys
* A change log that allows users to view the most recent activity in
chronological order
* The ability to switch between a variety of foregrounds, backgrounds,
font sizes and colors which is most beneficial for users with low vision
* A call bridger that allows the user to place a phone call simply by
clicking on the phone number; Must already have VOIP in place and there is a
fee to set this feature up.
If you are interested in running a free 90 day trial of the Handy CMS
service, you may get started by going to:

Handy Tech North America also offers database migration, customization and
