Never forget a password again

/in /by

In today’s digital world everything needs a password. Your passwords should be strong and changed on a regular basis. Who can remember every password by memory now that they must be secure?  A password of “password” is ancient history. The best way to manage all your passwords is with a ‘password manager’.  There are many available that are free (or almost free) and often will even help you create “strong” secure passwords. While we can’t recommend any one, here are a few of our favorites, check them out and give them a try: LastPass, Dashline, 1Password.

Video Tip – How to create a restore point

/in /by

dynaMACS has a “mini backup” for sales rep agencies’ convenience

dynaMACS has created a restore point utility to help save time if you need to revert back to a prior period and start over again.  For example:  Posted a session to the wrong month, posted a commission statement to the wrong manufacturer or transferring history to the wrong customer/manufacturer or sales rep.

This DOES NOT replace an offsite backup.  The restore point is located in the same directory as your dynaMACS Software.  This means that if your dynaMACS folder crashes then all the restore points will not work.
