Active Directory Photo Manager is Out and it’s Free

Yesterday we released our next freeware for Exchange Server users. It’s called CodeTwo Active Directory Photos and, as the name suggests, it allows you to manage photographs in Active Directory. What makes it so great is that you can upload and manage even thousands of Active Directory users’ pictures very quickly and easily. Uploaded pictures can later be displayed in Outlook 2010 internal emails, in GALs or contact cards. You can also add them to server-sided email signatures appended to internal or outbound correspondence. And it’s really free. Learn more about CodeTwo Active Directory Photos.

We created this program because many of you have sent us tech support questions concerning employees’ pictures in email signatures. Since it is possible to add images to Active Directory (one image per user), it is also possible to automatically insert them to Exchange email signatures when messages fly through Exchange. If you combine CodeTwo Active Directory Photos and CodeTwo Exchange Rules Pro, you will be able to do that by adding just one placeholder to your template – a {Photo} placeholder. Learn more about adding Active Directory pictures to server-sided email signatures.

We’re happy to share CodeTwo Active Directory Photos with you – it’s absolutely free and there are no time limitations. To install the program, download it from this link and install it either on a server machine equipped with Exchange Server or on a client PC with Admin’s rights.

Microsoft Partner Network membership renewed – We are Gold Partners!

A few days ago we have informed you about the MSExchange.org’s Gold Award for CodeTwo Exchange Rules Pro and yet we have another great news with the word “gold” in the heading to share. This time we are happy to announce that CodeTwo has just renewed its membership in the Microsoft Partner Network and has attained the Gold Independent Software Vendor (ISV) competency. This is the highest rank a company creating its own applications can receive among Microsoft Partners and there were several requirements which we had to meet in order to get it.

Microsoft Partner - Gold ISV competency

As a company developing solutions based on Microsoft platforms, we put our full effort into creating top-quality products that are highly reliable and functional for users. This vision stays in keeping with the general idea of Microsoft Partner Network, which gathers companies that are among the best experienced experts in their business areas. In order to receive a Gold ISV competency our software not only had to undergo several Microsoft platform compatibility tests, but also we had to gather a number of independent users references that confirmed the quality of our products. On this occasion we also launched a few Customer Satisfaction (CSAT) surveys that gave us a lot of useful information about how our work and services look from your perspective as a user. Thank you for all your comments and survey responses!

The fact of receiving the Gold ISV competency is also beneficial to those who buy our products. As Microsoft Partner we have access to the latest Microsoft technology and technical resources. This helps us create software that is fully compatible with Microsoft platforms and is based on highest technical standards. In the end that’s what you actually expect from us, isn’t it? :-)

And the Gold Award goes to…

CodeTwo Exchange Rules Pro awardedWe have great news to share with you. Our flagship product, CodeTwo Exchange Rules Pro, has just received the Gold Award from the acknowledged Microsoft Exchange resource portal – MSExchange.org. The program was reviewed by a world-class Exchange Server expert, J. Peter Bruzzese (Microsoft Most Valuable Professional) and received the top rating from him.

In his in-depth review, J. Peter Bruzzese examined the product in every detail and was impressed with its overall functionality and simplicity. According to him, CodeTwo Exchange Rules Pro perfectly filled the need of improving the Exchange Server’s build-in email management mechanism and even added more control to the mix. He was also astonished at how easy-to-use an intuitive the program was. We also like  this part of his review, which refers to our on-line documentation and video tutorials:

This is one of the few products that I have ever reviewed where I didn’t need any support from a human.

We feel deeply honored with Peter’s words and  the rank we received from him. This shows clearly that the hard work we put in developing our software simply pays off.

The complete review of CodeTwo Exchange Rules Pro can be found here. If you would like to find out more about the product itself, here’s the newest video overview of CodeTwo Exchange Rules Pro:

How to boost your marketing campaigns using fancy CodeTwo’s e-mail labels collection

As all marketers know, eye-catching images are sometimes more than compelling words. Keeping this in mind, our Marketing team prepared something special for CodeTwo Exchange Rules Pro users. Once you are in the Template Editor in HTML preview, click on the Picture icon on the ribbon, select From Image Library … and enjoy a brand new collection of various icons and labels that are designed to help you attract attention of your email recipients. Below I present how to open the Image Library:

The program’s library offers images that can be used for many purposes:
- as auto-replies, when, e.g., a staff member is away or to confirm that you have received a client’s message;

- to stress an important information enclosed to your e-mail, such as a legal disclaimer;

- to promote products and spread the word of the hot seasonal offers.

And the last point probably draws your attention the most, since such a simple image added to your email may visibly increase your sales or website traffic. People get hundreds of emails every day. If they open them, it is a half of success, but then they just quickly scan its content. A vibrant image can be most likely to attract their attention rather than just a plain text or big aggressive font, usually associated with a typical spam. Besides, a stylish graphic added to you e-mail looks more neat and professionally.

To illustrate this theory, look below to compare a standard advertising e-mail with the one prepared in CodeTwo Exchange Rules Pro HTML editor, with a use of its reach library of images.
A plain commercial e-mail with text links:

An e-mail prepared in CodeTwo Exchange Rules Pro with a clickable graphic:

Using the image library provided with CodeTwo Exchange Rules Pro you can freely create beautiful email signatures with your contact details, logos and photos, as well as promotional banners, visual hyperlinks, greeting e-cards, random citations and professional autoresponders. See the new Image Library Manager below:

To make CodeTwo Exchange Rules Pro even a more useful marketing tool, the program enables you to set time frames for each individual campaign. The function can be found in the Options Tab and it is called Rule Date Range. As you can see below, there are a few fields that you can complete according to your plan and then be sure that all promotional banners are sent in a right time

Since an e-mail is now one of the most popular means of business communication, the way you manage your correspondence gives a picture of your service quality. Do not let your company stay behind the technology wave. Equip yourself with a multi-functional program that has been created to let you administrate your e-mail in a professional way.
