CAMBRIDGE, MA - September 10, 2002 -
EchoMail, Inc., the established provider of E-Mail Management solutions, has been selected by
latimes.com, the comprehensive daily news Web site of the Los Angeles Times, to handle its
growing E-Mail volume and expand its customer care services. EchoMail was selected following
a nine-month review of existing products on the market.
"Since our transition to EchoMail, our E-Mail management has become far easier and more
time-efficient," said Janette Dean, latimes.com customer service and archives supervisor.
"Through EchoMail's automatic reporting capabilities, we now have at our fingertips the
important details about our customers' needs and requests."
EchoMail is a stable, innovative organization highly focused on E-Mail Management for
both inbound customer care and outbound E-Mail marketing. EchoMail also offers the most
intelligent features and capabilities not available in other products including the patented
automatic analysis of E-Mail by attitude, issue, request, product and customer type; and
rapid setup time requiring relatively no in-house resources resulting in reduced costs.
"Latimes.com chose EchoMail primarily for: 1) intuitive business intelligence that automatically
suggests the most appropriate responses and keeps learning as you use or change responses; 2)
in-depth activity reports by responses sent; and 3) sophisticated spam filtering," explained V.A.
Shiva, EchoMail President and CEO. "Latimes.com recognizes the importance of E-Mail as the key
communications medium for building, growing, and retaining relationships through personal one-to-one
dialogue."
According to Shiva, EchoMail was up and running within 48 hours - exceeding latimes.com's
requirements and expectations.
