iLinc Selected by American Home Mortgage Investment Corp.
Another Financial Services Organization Switches to iLinc for Better Service and Savings
PHOENIX, Arizona (December 05, 2005) –
iLinc Communications, Inc. (AMEX:ILC), developers of Web conferencing software and audio conferencing solutions announced today that American Home Mortgage Investment Corp. (NYSE: AHM), a mortgage real estate investment trust (REIT), has selected iLinc Web and audio conferencing to provide online training for their employees and customers. American Home Mortgage switched to iLinc from their previous provider, WebEx, and estimates that their one-time purchase fee of the iLinc software has cost hem the same amount as what they had been paying their previous vendor every year.
“iLinc presented us with an alternative solution for Web-based instruction that made a lot of sense and we have been very happy with our decision to switch,” noted Dieter Hertling, Chief Learning Officer for American Home Mortgage “Our team now has a better technology for virtual classroom training and we have eliminated the large recurring fee that we were paying WebEx every year for Web conferencing. We also greatly appreciate iLinc’s commitment to customer service and support, which made the transition from our other provider easy.”
“In the past few quarters our organization has been able to convert hundreds of customers such as American Home Mortgage to iLinc,” noted James M. Powers, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of iLinc Communications. “For organizations that have determined that Web conferencing is mission critical to supporting their business, it makes great economic sense to purchase a software solution for a one-time fee from us rather than continuing to pay a large annual fee to our competitors. American Home Mortgage joins the hundreds of other notable financial institutions such as JPMorgan Chase and Citigroup that have selected iLinc as their Web conferencing solution because of the savings as well as other important benefits such as robust functionality, easy integration with other systems, and complete data security.”
