To help speed-up the mailing creation process, CakeMail users can easily create professional templates, and then access them through their template library. CakeMail Resellers can use the CakeMail template management tool to reduce demands on creative resources, by offering their clients a set of system- or user-based mailing templates.
Improved reporting
CakeMail reporting is more powerful than ever. With a simple mouse click, CakeMail users can download detailed mailing results information like who opened the mailing, who clicked on a link, and which email addresses are no longer valid. Leveraging the data from prior mailings, users can instantly generate open and click-through lists and use them to ensure timely, personalized and relevant responses.
Automated install script
There is great news for CakeMail resellers who host their interface on their own servers. CakeMail now has an install script that will automatically validate server pre-requisites, install the UI, and look for recent updates. So now you don’t have to worry about manually searching for and installing updates, all you have to do is run the CakeMail install script!
