Contact Manager gets added power

Contact manager, released earlier this month, also features some new enhancements. For example, you can now edit the name and descriptions of the custom contact lists you create for various purposes. Better still, the new Update a field button lets you make bulk changes to a single attribute across many (or all) of your contacts.

For more info on Contact Manager and Email Manager, see the April 2 announcement.

Additional enhancements

Optify has also simplified the process of editing landing pages. Now when you click on the name of one of your existing landing pages in the main Landing Pages application, that page opens in the Landing Page Editor (rather than displaying page details). This makes Landing Pages more parallel to the new Email Manager, in which clicking an email name opens that email for editing.
