that lets prospective clients request counseling online and lets anyone, client or not, register for training events online.Original publication date: March, 2005
Never manually enter a new client record into your Softshare ‘CATS database again! In early April, Softshare will release eCenter Direct, a Web interface that lets prospective clients request counseling online and lets anyone, client or not, register for training events online.
Prospective clients can fill in a counseling request form right from eCenter Direct. When they do, they’re taken to a new client form that requires the same information that Softshare 'CATS does. The client information collected by this form is then uploaded to your database, where it awaits your review and acceptance.
From eCenter Direct, anyone can browse or register for your upcoming training events. The events listed here—and their details—are pulled directly from the conference records in your ‘CATS database. You decide which training events get published by activating the eCenter option from within a conference record. When someone registers for a training event, their contact information, upon your approval, is added to the conference’s attendee list.
eCenter Direct will be available in early April at a subscription rate of $500/year with a one-time set-up fee of $250*. If you'd like to learn more about eCenter now, contact Len Price at 805-899-2366 or lenp@softshare.com.
* eCenter Direct fees apply to Softshare-hosted WebCATS systems only. If you are running a self-hosted system, please call Softshare for fee information.
