Productive Computing, Inc. Releases Outlook SendMail Plug-in to Compete Directly with "ClickYes" Software
"When sending e-mail from FileMaker Pro to Outlook,
Outlook will pop open a security dialog that requires the user to
acknowledge that a third party application is trying to access
Outlook before allowing the e-mail to be sent. While this
is a prudent security step from Microsoft's point of view,
it limits FileMaker Pro's ability to send out mass e-mail
campaigns. We recognized that suppressing this security
dialog without user intervention while still maintaining the
integrity of Outlook's security functions is a much desired
activity - an activity that our competitor
"ClickYes" has managed to do for some time.
Our answer was to create a new plug-in that had more features and a
lower cost per user. Not only does our new Outlook
SendMail plug-in suppress the Outlook e-mail security dialog, but
it allows you to send HTML formatted e-mail, send multiple
attachments directly from a container field or from a file path,
can be deployed to an entire network via FileMaker Server's
auto-update feature and is half the cost of the
'ClickYes' commercial license.
Priced at $19.95 per user, our new motto is, 'Say no to
ClickYes'!"
- CEO, Marc Larochelle
The Outlook SendMail plug-in is native to and compatible with
FileMaker Pro 7 or later and for use with Outlook 2002 or later and
Windows 2000 or later.
