Santa Ana, CA– May 5, 2004- mUrgent Corporation (www.murgent.com) set a software precedent recently when they packaged their e-marketing service, EMPACT, and began selling it on the shelves at all 26 Fry’s Electronics (www.frys.com) locations. This makes them the first application service provider (ASP) to ever sell their service on retail shelves.
EMPACT is a software application service, meaning it is web-based and may be accessed from any computer with an Internet connection without ever having to install anything. Application services are paid for through subscriptions, so users are able to spread the cost over a long period of time. The ASP model is rapidly taking over the software industry and mUrgent is setting the standard for how these services will be sold.
“Using an ASP is basically like being able to rent software month to month rather than paying for a package that is going to be outdated as soon as a new version is released,” says mUrgent CEO Boris Bugarski.
mUrgent constantly upgrades EMPACT features at no cost to subscribers, which eliminates the need for users to return to the store to purchase and install new versions as improvements are made.
EMPACT is a permission-based e-marketing automation service that provides small businesses the opportunity to communicate more effectively with their customers through an opt-in email list. Business owners who want to run their own e-marketing campaigns in-house benefit from the convenience of purchasing EMPACT directly off the shelf at a reasonable cost.
mUrgent has already negotiated agreements to begin selling EMPACT on shelves at several other leading software retailers, which will change the way business owners shop for and use e-marketing technology.
“First we had the cellular service provider, or CSP in the 1980s, followed by the Internet service provider, or ISP in the 90s,” Bugarski says. “The ASP model is the wave of the future and we are thrilled that Fry’s has taken the lead in helping us educate users about the numerous advantages of an ASP.”
