At one point at Resort Rentals of Hilton Head, a locally owned and managed home and villa vacation rental company, spam accounted for nearly 75 percent of the messages streaming into user inboxes. They were frustrated by this nuisance and drain on employee productivity, and called on Progressive Technology to develop a solution. Symantec Premium AntiSpam was implemented and the desired results were immediate. Delivered spam dropped to almost zero, and is no longer a business burden.

The office of Greg Bennett CPA was experiencing a tremendous amount of spam as a result of a heavy internet presence. The sheer volume of spam was incredible for a small CPA office. After working with PTI on a solution, Greg has recently said “I am very pleased with the extremely significant reduction (near total elimination) of all spam. After several months I am not aware of any legitimate emails sent to me that did not arrive unhindered.”
