Contact Management Software

->> We are looking for a good Contact Management program for MAC OS. We need to store basic contact information and build email lists by customer type for targeted email blasts. We would love to be able to sync the info from home to office too (not on same network like Bento requires). Anyone using something good out there? We used to use ACT years ago, but they don't seem to make a MAC version. I am a bit hesitant on the web-based services as I do not really want our customer info stored somewhere else. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Rick: everything I find for the Now Contact & Up To Date leads me to believe that the company no longer exists? Can you supply a link?

I too used Now Software (Pre-Nighthawk version) and LOVED it, however I searched like you did and found the company is no longer in business. Check out this link as they say farewell:
http://www.nowsoftware.com/letter.html

The original Now Contact and Up-to-Date rocked. When they went to develop "Nighhawk", it went right down the tubes. If you can located a version of the original, it works great in Panther and Leopard, but has bugs with Snow Leopard. Works, but not completely.

I've begrudgingly migrated over to Apple iCal and Address Book.

Ron
