Edify Wins Outstanding Web Site Honors In Premier 2004 Web Site Competition
Edify Corporation, a leading global supplier of voice and speech solutions today announced that it has received the Web Marketing Association's 2004 WebAward for Outstanding Web Site. This distinguished award recognizes Edify for achieving industry excellence standards in raising the bar for Internet marketing and site development in the voice and speech customer service market place.
Edify's Web site (www.edify.com) reflects the power of voice and speech technology through strong auditory and visual devices. Intended as the primary outbound communications tools for the company, the main goal was to include speech and the power of voice in the overall design and functionality. The new Edify site also introduces a "speaker" icon that demonstrates many of the qualifying factors sought in the speech recognition category, including clarity, responsiveness, speed and ease of deployment. The speaker icons are spread throughout the site, playing examples of how great speech solutions both sound and work.
"As a leader in speech technologies, we wanted our Web site to showcase our innovative technology and world-class customers," said Marie Jackson, vice president of marketing. "Our Web site is not only more intuitive and easy-to-navigate, it truly integrates our marketing goals, sales processes and technology to reflect Edify, our products, our people and our passion." The Web Marketing Association (WMA) was founded in 1997 to set a high standard for Internet marketing and corporate Web site development. The WMA is the producer of the WebAwards, an annual competition designed to judge corporate Web sites against an ever increasing Internet standard and against peer sites within their industry.
