Web-based service suite to connect businesses with technology using online desktop gateway

  ALEXANDRIA, VA – Nov. 3, 2000– iCommunicate™, provider of the premier online customer service suite offered as a subscription service, today announced a partnership with Perfect Portal, Inc. to deliver Internet-based business solutions and end user support through a customized browser gateway.
Perfect Portal, an ASP Aggregator of delivered Internet services and software through a proprietary portal infrastructure, will provide the iCommunicate.NET customer service technology through a comprehensive single-destination desktop workspace. iCommunicate.NET helps companies seeking to improve customer relations, increase customer retention and enhance e-commerce activity.
Perfect Portal integrates world-class web-based applications, including news, vendor services, and existing intra- and extranets, into a single platform. This gives customers the flexibility to select the products that work best for them with the knowledge that the providers have been hand-selected. By offering state-of-the-art solutions and highly relevant content, Perfect Portal supplies small to medium enterprises with a reliable computing infrastructure, including software, hardware, Internet access, e-commerce, security, nightly back-ups, and telephone support, at a predictable monthly cost.
Priding itself on selecting only best-of-breed technology, Perfect Portal ultimately made the decision to offer its customers iCommunicate.NET after an extensive selection process in which numerous online customer service solutions were considered and discarded.
“We did our research on CRM products with the intention of providing our customers with the best in web-based service technology,” said Paul Hamilton, President of Perfect Portal. “We selected iCommunicate.NET because it was the best fit for our enterprise. Clearly, then, our endorsement of iCommunicate.NET is a vote of confidence in their product, and a reflection of our emphasis on providing a wide range of support options to our customers.”
“Perfect Portal has turned to iCommunicate to draw on our next-generation technology so together we can more easily extend the robust iCommunicate.NET solution to enterprises worldwide,” said Louis Ravenet, CEO, iCommunicate. “By advocating iCommunicate.NET on their workspace as a best-of-breed product, Perfect Portal eliminates complexities for customers who are in search of customer service solutions.”
