Toronto, Canada - (Cheap Web Hosting Directory) - May 25, 2007 - Domain registrar and Internet services firm, Tucows Inc., has launched the next generation of its Email Service, tailored specifically for the requirements of web hosting companies and ISPs, combining a new, AJAX-enabled webmail interface with backend architecture.

Elliot Noss, President and Chief Executive Officer, Tucows Inc. remarked, ”This latest generation of our email service demonstrates our commitment to help service providers offer highly-competitive services to their customers. For too long, service providers have viewed email as something they could get away with providing a low-end version of. The result has been too few customers actually using the service provider’s email system. When you are selling hosting and domain names that is a dangerous place to be. The market has changed in the last 12-24 months and what was passable at the low-end is simply not good enough anymore.”

The new webmail interface brings together desktop-like functionality and anytime, anywhere access. Kim Phelan, Director of Product Management, Tucows Inc. added, ”Our vision is to make webmail something you want to use all the time, not just when you’re away from your home computer. By providing competitive webmail along with full support for traditional email programs, we’ve ended up with an email service that works not only for users, but also for service providers. Our offering is reliable, fully featured and competitive email that will continue to evolve.”

Leveraging technology from Nitido Inc., a Toronto-based leader in creating subscriber-centric services, the Tucows Email Service is able to provide a web mail experience that is comparable to the leading free and premium web mail providers.

Mauricio De Simone, Chief Executive Officer, Nitido Inc. offered, ”Working with Nitido we’ve been able to accelerate the delivery of our next-generation service while setting the stage for continuing innovation and additional services to come. Tucows is leveraging Nitido’s technology to bring world-class webmail to ISPs and web hosts. The combination of Tucows’ reach, operational excellence and customer service alongside Nitido’s product, technology and experience in large scale deployments, creates the single best option in the market today for a service provider looking to outsource its email operation.”
