One of the strengths of Accelo is the fact it is so tightly integrated - you bring a new, prospective client into the front end, and you're able to manage all of the sales, work, support and billing for that client in one, central place.
However, some of our clients have been asking to make it even easier to get clients into that front end.
The new Accelo Forms API gives you all of this and much more. With the Accelo forms API, you can construct forms on your own website or websites, and when users fill in the form details they can be pushed across into Accelo, instantly. You can configure notifications - so that your staff get an email letting them know about the new submissions - and submissions can handle all of the custom segmentation and profile fields, as well as file attachments, and all you need is a little help from your web developer or CMS to create a simple web-form - and Accelo will do the rest.
For an example of a great web form in action, check out Accelo client the Angel Group. This innovative recruiting practice uses the Accelo Forms API to capture lots of key information about jobseekers and prospective clients; to get a sense of the power and flexibility of the Forms API in action, check out their Applicant Registration Form.
