Edify Corporation
http://www.edify.com Edify Corporation is one of the fastest growing providers of multi-channel customer interaction solutions. Edify Enterprise, a full function, enterprise Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system that features Edify��s Virtual Customer Service Representatives (vCSR) and the Edify Interaction Center, is the main product.

Edify��s vCSRs are a suite of applications that increase the speed and effectiveness of customer sales and service through the automation of customer interaction, both written and verbal. Using leading edge, Edify Natural Language technology, they can fulfill customer requests from any incoming channel, including phone, wireless, email, and the web, without human assistance. At any point during a customer interaction the vCSR can connect the customer with a service or sales representative anywhere within the enterprise and simultaneously provide assistance to the human representative. As a result, the rapidly growing volume and complexity of customer service and sales interactions are managed in real time, without delays or duplication of data entry. With Edify��s vCSRs, enterprises can provide their customers with a true advocate and assistant that knows them best.

An enterprise using the Edify Enterprise solution can accept incoming customer inquiries from any communication channel. Messages that can be interpreted by Edify Natural Language are routed automatically to the appropriate vCSR; messages that cannot be reliably interpreted are routed to a human representative using the vCSR Desktop Assistant. Edify Interaction Center modules and vCSRs work in conjunction with Edify��s Electronic Workforce� 7.0, and feature real-time integration with legacy, desktop-centric systems and existing back-office applications without replicating data.

Edify vCSRs are capable of speech recognition in 21 languages and advanced text-to-speech in 11 languages, and support Unicode, which enables double-byte data processing in the Asia-Pacific region. The Edify Interaction Center also provides wireless customer interaction solutions using WAP, iMode, Compact HTML, and SMS wireless protocols.

Edify was founded in 1990 and has more than 1,000 customers in North America, Asia, and Europe. For more information, please visit the Edify web site at www.edify.com.

Demonstration:
Edify Corp. will demonstrate the Wireless Secure Program, a hardware and software bundle designed to quell the security concerns of financial institutions that want to extend their reach to wireless customers.

Edify has integrated its Electronic Workforce application, which lets companies deploy wireless technology for interactive communications, with the Secure Enterprise Proxy from Openwave Systems Inc. The Secure Enterprise Proxy is a server that creates a Wireless Transport Layer Security (WTLS) tunnel and encrypts data before it travels from a handheld device to its destination. Together, the products enable data to travel completely over a wireless network and remain encrypted throughout the entire transaction.

Edify has also incorporated Voice Verification technology into the solution to address the needs of those devices which cannot support the latest WAP standards, thus providing a solution to the entire market.

Typically, wireless carriers move data onto the Internet, requiring them to decrypt the data and then re-encrypt it via the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) security protocol. During the conversion, the data is "in the clear" and available to cyberthieves, says Warren Hill, strategic business director at Edify. "It hasnt happened yet, but anyone who knows about Unix memory management can download that consumers personal account information, user ID, and password" if they time it right, he says.

National Interbank, an Indianapolis provider of private-label online banking and services, is concerned about hackers accessing customer in-formation and is testing the Wireless Secure Program, CEO Randy Waterfield says. Credit Suisse and Fidelity are also testing the product. "We see this as adding a hybrid level of security for our customers using wireless devices," says Mike Bouakadakis, chief technology officer at National Interbank. "If their data is traveling over the Net, we have 128-bit SSL encryption. If its travelling over wireless, we now have 128-bit WTSL, and Edify has also given us secure voice capabilities."

The huge number of different interfaces that a WAP application can be viewed through will only grow and grow. How can application developers be confident that their application will be viewed correctly on all devices? Only through automated functional testing of WAP applications using WinRunner will WAP application developers have the confidence to deploy.

Once deployed, will you rely upon your customers to phone you to tell you that they cannot gain access to your WAP offering? After 8 seconds of waiting, it is proven that over 30% of customers will give up and move onto your competitors site. To be proactively warned by Topaz that transaction performance is degrading or failing completely and to have the diagnostics isolate the problem quickly will give WAP application developers a huge advantage.
