ciMAIL: Information
The ciMAIL: module allows you to easily distribute opt-in (permission-based marketing, or Email Marketing) materials to a large number of users in a compliant, easy, well-designed way for maximum impact and minimum cost.
ciMAIL: now includes a ciLIST: module, responsible for "persistent lists", which can be directly integrated with your website to accept automatic subscriptions (opt-in) by users - and can then track bounces, unsubscriptions (opt-out), and other user-related details to fully comply with the Australian Government's anti-spam legislation ("Spam Act 2003") which - among other things - requires a request to unsubscribe from a mailing list to be honoured (traditionally difficult if you do not have a persistent list of recipients).

ciMAIL: Statistics
Large amounts of tracking data is stored and managed by the ciMAIL: system each time an email is broadcast to a list of recipients, and each time a recipient interacts with an email they have received (viewing the email, clicking on links within the email, unsubscribing etc).
Tracking and reporting features include:
- Tracking, reporting, graphing, export of raw data for all recipient interactions (see if a specific person viewed an email message, story/article, or even clicked on an advertisement).
- Easy-to-understand graphs showing:
- Number of emails sent/received/bounced
- Links in campaign (with number of clicks)
- Times of day accessed
- Days of the week accessed
- Delay before reading
- Export of raw data as Excel spreadsheets
ciMAIL: Performance
Without speed, you would just be sending out a handful of perfect emails. That's not terribly useful, so we built ciMAIL: to be an email delivery beast!
ciMAIL: performance is in-line with the rest of ciSUITE:'s usual ultra-fast CMS Content Engine capabilities.
Typical performance is between 20,000 and 100,000 fully-personalised HTML emails per hour (300 to 1700 per minute) - the difference in speed being largely dependent upon the server being used to perform the task.
Unlike most other Email Marketing applications, ciMAIL: is not a subscription service (so there are no per-message fees), yet does not require a dedicated server, and works fine within most shared hosting environments (including Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X servers).

Pricing
ciMAIL: is provided as an "installed application", so there is no cost per message. The system is installed on your own server and can therefore integrate more deeply with the rest of your website and other services.
Simply have our deployment experts install the module and implement your page designs (we can design them for you as well if necessary) - then it's all up to you. Send 10 per day, or 10,000 ... we don't care!
