New WYSIWYG Editing Tool

Bold, Italics, Pictures, and Colors…
in QuickBase Text Boxes

If you’re keeping track of your conversations with customers, you probably use a multi-line text box. You can put a lot of content in those boxes, but stylistically, your options do not go much past the options I had on a Smith Corona typewriter in 1978.

No bold, no italics, no colors, nothing but characters.

But with Data Collaborative’s new product, WYSIWYG for QuickBase Text Boxes, your main points will stand out. WYSIWYG stands for What You See is What You Get. It means that behind the scenes, we are using HTML to allow you all sorts of formatting options — but you see the text and pictures exactly as they will be output.

Let’s try an example. You’re selling a product, you meet a great prospect, and you write it up in a text box.

No Wysiwyg

All the content is there, but if someone was scanning this quickly, they would miss the important pieces.

Here we have it with the WYSIWYG for QuickBase Text Box:

with Wysiwyg

Huge difference, right? The bold and italics make certain words stand out. The photo, which I just dragged from a web page and dropped in the box, provides an instant reminder of who the contact is. The bullet points are much clearer than the text in the original box, and the clickable link means you can send the contact an email with one click.

Interested?

The cost is $99 for the first table, plus $20 per additional table for any same day installations. With pricing like that, you can’t lose. Call and order today!

Happy clicking,
