Years of experience

We constantly had to create work orders manually with pen and paper. By providing a clear digital system with many options, along with an excellent helpdesk that assists with everything, even the smallest questions, Outsmart has helped us.

Thomas Loos, Display4all

We used to lose work orders now and then, which made tracking time a challenge. With the easy digital entry of work orders, it's much simpler for the technician to manage the administration. Having 100% accurate work orders has definitely cut our administrative time in half.

Pascal Hanenbergh, Hanenberg Techniek

The Act! integration costs €20 per month per company, at a flat rate regardless of how many licenses your business uses. There is also a one-time setup fee of €295, which covers the manual IP port configuration required to connect the two systems.
Open Settings in OutSmart, go to the Licence Manager, click Order and select the Act! integration from the list. A technician then configures the required IP port manually, either remotely or on-site, as part of the one-time €295 setup fee before the connection goes live.
The €295 one-time fee covers the manual IP port configuration needed to connect Act! to OutSmart. Unlike most other OutSmart integrations, this connection requires on-site or remote technical adjustments rather than a fully automated, self-service setup through the Licence Manager.
No. The €20 monthly fee for the OutSmart Act! integration stays the same per company, no matter how many Act! licenses your organisation uses. The one-time €295 setup fee is also charged only once, per company, not per license.
