Integrated Contact Management with the Familiarity of the FranklinCovey Planner
SALT LAKE CITY--FranklinCovey® (NYSE:FC) today announced the release of PlanPlus™ Online, a secure Web-based application which offers users integrated contact management capabilities while implementing the FranklinCovey planning methodology.
PlanPlus Online features a familiar FranklinCovey interface, a powerful search tool, the FranklinCovey weekly planning tool, and an email center. The application is accessible from anywhere, allowing users to enter and retrieve information on the go and utilizes the strongest encryption products available. It was developed in partnership with COMPLETExRM and EBSuite.com.
The integrated contact management capabilities within PlanPlus Online allow customers to easily track leads, organizations, contacts, tasks and sales opportunities and integrate action items with their daily task list and schedule. A simple sales process is included with the application, along with the ability to track client or opportunity history, view the activity of other team members and create detailed reports. PlanPlus Online is collaborative and scaleable for individual and small, medium or large business use.
“We are excited to present an online application that features the same components our customers enjoy using on their desktop, laptops, and tablet PCs,” says Jeff Anderson, Vice President of Product Management for FranklinCovey. “This application will provide mobile professionals and work groups with access to all of their planning and contact management needs anytime, anywhere. We are confident that PlanPlus Online will enable increased productivity for these professionals as they implement FranklinCovey’s proven planning principles.”
The PlanPlus Online home view features a simple tab system that allows instant access to key information. Users can utilize drag and drop functionality for quick changes to tasks and within the Quick Prioritize tool to prioritize their daily task list.
The powerful search engine can retrieve critical information from the database in seconds by searching clients, organizations, sales opportunities, notes, tasks and emails at once.
PlanPlus Online also includes the same weekly planning tool found in FranklinCovey’s award-winning software offerings, PlanPlus for Microsoft® Outlook® and PlanPlus for Windows® XP. This tool allows users to review their Mission Statement, Values, Goals, and Weekly Compass and drag and drop items from these forms onto their schedule or task list.
Users can also have their existing IMAP or POP3 email account delivered to their PlanPlus Online portal. By doing so, users can send, receive, and manage email within PlanPlus Online.
