Anthem, AZ (PRWEB) December 10, 2009

Workamajig (http://www.Workamajig.com), the leading worldwide integrated software for ad agencies and others in the creative and design industries, has released a slew of enhancements for Global Search, Visual Import and Mass Update features.

Workamajig plans to kick off major announcements at its Workology 2.0 Conference April 11-14, 2010 at the Hotel del Coronado resort in San Diego CA. Go to http://www.WorkologyConference.com for more information.

The Global Search feature makes it faster to find things in the database. For example, if a user wants to look up a contact, project, they can now simply start typing part of the name in the global search box and all records in the database that match that name will show up. Then, all they have to do is double click the record to open it up.

“The Global Search is our own internal Google”, touts Ron Ause, Workamajig’s director of marketing. “When our clients ask for something, we say ‘No Workamajig Problem at all! And if they have a complaint about Workamajig, all they need to do is ask, and it’s gone in no time! That’s why we created the Visual Imort.”

As for the Visual Import, Creative Manager’s importing capabilities were good, but not easy. The old way required users to meticulously format their import files with columns with specific headers and column order. The new visual import in Workamajig lets users easily pick a file to import and simply drag and drop the mapping of which columns go where. This feature has been rolled out for companies, contacts, leads and opportunities and is the new standard that will soon replace all import options.

Building on recent updates for iPhone and Safari for Mac & PC, Workamajig continues to improve their Advertising Agency Software with every quarterly release.

Commenting on the new Mass Update feature, Ause says, “Have you ever wanted to change several records at a time? For example, you may want to assign a group of contacts to one of your salespeople or update the status of a group of projects. Workamajig now includes a mass update feature in many parts of the system that lets you quickly accomplish these tasks.”

“Workamajig will only deliver a product that is very innovative and that is something we are very proud of” says Ause. “To quote Steve Jobs, ‘We’re making our most innovative products ever and our customers are responding.’ We’re constantly improving our software, to make our clients more profitable, and improve ease of use and intuitive functionality to make this the best Project Management Software for creatives on the market.”

Workamajig’s update includes updates for Apple’s Safari web browser version 4.0.4, the world’s fastest browser, available for Mac & PC.

This release continues to build on the major foundation upgrade that Workamajig made to its Ad Agency management software, addressing interface improvements based on years of research, client interviews and user feedback. All improvements are a direct result from intensive field testing and direct client feedback from actual users of the Workamajig Creative Management Software.

As always with Creative Manager Inc.’s products, no installation or conversion are necessary, and all updates are at no cost to the over 20,000 users of Workamajig. All client logins and vendor logins are always free.

Ause adds, “Having everything all in one place is the key to streamlining the business, and cutting costs throughout the agency.”

Workamajig continues to invest, adding new features that work with Apple’s latest Mac OS X Leopard Unix-based Operating System and Microsoft Windows.

All updates are deployed using Workamajig’s own Auto-Updater, which allows them to deploy updates to all hosted sites, and to clients’ servers at any time. As Ause has said, “We can deploy a change to the program in hours – even minutes! Our competitors take months or years to get to their ever-growing list. ‘We’re Always Listening!’”

Workamajig goes beyond costing to offer full Project Management, CRM, Digital Asset Management, billing and accounting, and Extranet capabilities.
