1 What is e-mail response management?
E-mail management is the procedure within service-oriented companies of recording the content of incoming customer messages for a specific service level and forwarding them at the right time to an employee with the appropriate skill level.

2 How does VERA enterprise work?
VERA references centrally-maintained e-mail addresses to automatically classify incoming e-mail according to language and content, filters out unproductive or harmful e-mail (spam), and forwards the e-mail to the most suitable employee. Notifications of receipt and provisional replies are automatically sent to the sender by the system in the appropriate language. Each e-mail is assigned a unique ticket number and always has a distinct status. Once the e-mail is processed, VERA provides the employee at a glance with the previous customer history of the interaction and proposes optional responses to the customer's wishes. VERA employs an authorization system in which the details of the employee's qualifications and authorizations are saved. Monitoring and reporting components provide management with an ongoing general overview of the e-mail traffic as well as informative indexes for planning and control.
