Emailvision Announces over 50% Revenue Growth in 2011

LUXEMBOURG, March 12, 2012/PRNewswire/ --

             Launches new Enterprise SaaS Solution for Relationship Marketing and

                                  Customer Intelligence

    Emailvision [http://www.emailvision.lu ], the international leader in software as a
service (SaaS) for online relationship marketing, announced today a record performance in
2011. Revenues grew by over 50% to reach $90m. Growth was driven by international
expansion, product innovation and two strategic technology acquisitions.

    In 2011, the company accelerated its international presence throughout Europe, North
America, Brazil and China. All 19 countries contributed to the strong revenue growth and
25% of new sales came from outside of Europe.

    Emailvision launched Campaign Commander Enterprise Edition in Q4 2011. This release
marked two industry "firsts" - the first SaaS solution for Customer Intelligence, and the
first product to fully integrate customer intelligence into an email, mobile and social
campaign management platform. The result is a comprehensive SaaS solution designed to
increase the relevance and profitability of online customer relationship marketing
programs.

    "With the arrival of Big Data in the marketing department, it's clear that customer
intelligence will drive digital relationship marketing programs to a higher level of
performance and profitability," commented Nick Heys, Founder and CEO of Emailvision, "Our
new Enterprise SaaS solution provides marketers with integrated customer intelligence at a
fraction of the cost of on-premise solutions. We are very encouraged by initial client
feedback and confident that this new product will accelerate our organic growth in 2012."

    "We started using Campaign Commander to manage and deliver our email and mobile
campaigns three years ago. We have recently started using Emailvision's new Customer
Intelligence solution and within a couple of weeks we were able to start applying new
knowledge about our customers directly into our campaigns. With access to deeper customer
insights, we have quadrupled our conversion rate; significantly improving our customer
marketing lifecycle and engagement...and it's just the beginning," said Laura Henderson,
Online Marketing Manager at Republic Ltd.

    Emailvision won over 850 new clients in 2011 including: Abril, ClickON, Walmart and
Accor Hotels in Brazil; ACP Media and P1.CN in Asia Pacific; Let's Bonus, Toyota, SudOuest
in Europe; Office and Republic in the UK; Cisco Live Events and the Washington Post in the
US.

    "We use Campaign Commander to help us manage social media marketing at Cisco Live
events where we send out event related updates to encourage audience participation and
awareness before, during and after each event. Campaign Commander enables me to analyse
the effectiveness of my updates and better craft our messaging to best meet our audience's
needs. During the time I have used this valuable tool, I have more than doubled the number
of participants in our social media channels over the past year." Kathleen Mudge,
Marketing Manager at Cisco.

    Emailvision's achievements earned honours
[http://www.emailvision.com/news-events/press-releases/emailvision-launches-first-saas-campaign-management-solution ]
from several industry publications and organizations in 2011,
including:

   
    - Inc. Magazine's list of the fastest-growing private companies
    - Software Magazine's 29th annual Software 500
    - EuroSoftware100 list
    - Syntec and Ernst & Young International Development Award

    Emailvision made two major technology acquisitions in 2011. In January, the company
closed the acquisition of ObjectiveMarketer, a pioneer in SaaS solutions for social media
marketing. In June, Emailvision completed the acquisition of smartFOCUS, a leading
provider of customer intelligence software for relationship marketing.

    2011 marked another first for Emailvision. The company launched a five year internal
initiative called 'Emailvision Summits' that will annually send a group of employees to
climb one of the world's highest mountains across five continents. Each climb will involve
a new group of trained employees and a new mountain they will conquer as a team. In July
2011, fifteen Emailvision employees successfully reached the top of the Mont Blanc,
Europe's highest peak. In 2012, a new team will climb Kilimanjaro in Kenya. Guy Porré,
Chief Operating Officer of Emailvision remarked, "We're one of the fastest growing SaaS
companies worldwide and this is a credit to our employees. The Summits program inspires
all of us to reach new heights. Seeing our colleagues reach the top

an inspiration."
