Mirapoint and Ziff Davis to Discuss Improving Email ROI with Hybrid Messaging

Mirapoint, the secure messaging expert, announced that Mirapoint and Ziff Davis will be hosting an interactive eSeminar, “Improving Email ROI with Hybrid Messaging” on Tuesday, May 22^nd, 2:00 p.m. ET/ 11:00 a.m. PT. During the interactive eSeminar Alan Elliot, senior director, Business Development, Mirapoint and Michael Krieger, vice president, Market Experts Group, Ziff Davis Media will explore the benefits of hybrid messaging. Hybrid messaging allows organizations to flexibly and precisely match messaging services to the needs of their diverse user groups, while simplifying the overall messaging infrastructure.

Although messaging may be the “killer app,” distributed workforce and casual email users still don't have the kind of access that could keep them more productive. Many IT managers don't know that moving to a distributed model can actually reduce their IT budgets -- provided they take a strategic approach to changes in workforce habits. For the casual email user, having access to the corporate messaging system can greatly improve productivity and keep management more informed.

eSeminar participants will learn about the benefits of hybrid messaging networks -- comprising both traditional "thick client" solutions with today's sophisticated but simple web-based messaging that can be quickly deployed and easily managed for users outside the firewall who don't need the levels of collaboration that traditional messaging clients offer. In addition, attendees will also learn how US workforce habits are shifting to a distributed yet managed model; who should have traditional “thick” email clients vs. “thin” or web-based ones; how hybrid messaging solutions integrate into existing email infrastructures; methods of ensuring security and regulatory compliance; best practices for 21st century messaging infrastructure; and how hybrid solutions improve ROI and productivity.
