, January 13, 2003 - Miller Systems, one of Boston’s premier technology consulting firms specializing in web engineering and IT consulting, today announced that three new customers are leveraging the enhanced capabilities of its dataDriver ePush marketing communications engine. ePush, part of Miller Systems’ powerful dataDriver suite of web site and community management tools, is being used by customers Mazonson Inc., the Boston Society of Architects and InfiniSwitch to conduct outbound email sales and marketing campaigns, event marketing and registration, and customer and community communication.

Delivering functionality to serve three different goals simultaneously, dataDriver ePush provides companies with the ability to generate surveys and conduct email broadcasts using accepted opt-in practices. Handling media-rich email broadcast campaigns, surveys, opt-in and private list management, ePush allows these companies to leverage their web sites and contacts to acquire customers and prospects, learn about them, and communicate with them.

“Increasingly, companies across a variety of industries are seeking affordable, efficient and easy- to-use alternatives to existing integrated web and email marketing systems,” said Seth Miller, Founder, President and CEO of Miller Systems, Inc. “Designed to meet these requirements, Miller Systems’ dataDriver ePush module enables our customers’ resource-strapped marketing teams to manage measurable, media-rich outbound communications easily. ePush gives them the functionality and sophistication appropriate for their business at a fraction of the cost.”

Customers Mazonson Inc., the Boston Society of Architects and InfiniSwitch are taking advantage of ePush’s enhanced HTML mail capabilities, simplified email template and broadcast creation processes, and detailed reporting for measuring campaign results.
