We’ve been hard at work for many months on a totally new AdSystem and we are excited to share some details with you. We’re not ready to release it yet — it won’t be ready until sometime in 2022 — but we want to share a sneak preview with you while you wait. Check out this 2-minute video to get a sneak peek at the new system.

What’s New?

This is a ground-up rebuild of AdSystem. Doing this has given us the opportunity to expand upon the base of features and functionality that our customers love and to implement lots of “wish list” items that can only be done during a major upgrade.

  • Completely browser-based, this version will be accessible from any internet-connected device and have easier, faster logins.
  • AdSystem will have a reimagined CRM experience focused on making your sales staff more productive. Active CRM features will help your sales force to remain engaged with customers, pursue opportunities, and to track performance through meaningful metrics, dashboards and key performance indicators.
  • The user interface has been completely updated and modernized, making it easier to access and update key information.
  • Expanded integration with other cloud-based platforms such as Office 365, Google, Amazon and all major credit card processors.

There’s quite a bit more that we’ve done to make this the best AdSystem ever. Stay tuned as we provide regular updates over the coming months in preparation for the new AdSystem in 2022.
