See the Note under Ywis. . -- Asterion, a Belgium Post subsidiary and European leader in the processing and handling of enterprise documents, has chosen to integrate FlyDoc technology offered by Esker esker, long, narrow, winding ridge of stratified sand-and-gravel drift. Eskers, many miles long and resembling abandoned railway embankments, occur in Scandinavia, Ireland, Scotland, and New England; they arose from deposition of sediment in the beds of streams , the world leader in document automation solutions, to develop its on demand mail service called Clic'doc. The strategic partnership with Esker, based on Software as a Service (SaaS), allows Asterion to develop a niche in the mail on demand/hybrid mail market; a market estimated to be over 800 million letters per year in France alone. Automating all processes in a traditional mail production chain is extremely difficult. Due to these difficulties most companies reserve their production lines for large batch mailings such as sending invoices or statements. With this in mind Asterion has launched a new service called Clic'doc to allow its large corporate customers to send physical mail on demand, directly from desktop or enterprise applications, such as customer letters, dunning Dunning The process of communicating with customers to ensure the collection of accounts receivable.

Clic'doc offers a natural extension to the Asterion line of services allowing companies to address all types of documents and volumes. Asterion chose the FlyDoc online mail service to support its new Clic'doc service. Following definition of the scope of the project with Asterion, Esker placed a development team in charge of customizing FlyDoc to represent the Clic'doc brand. Based on a model that allows customers to pay only for what they use, Esker offers Asterion a comprehensive and complete application, including: * A virtual printer and a web interface featuring Clic'doc brand identity. * A robust and secure technical infrastructure hosted by Esker available to meet all customer traffic needs of Asterion. * Interfaces with industrial printers in the Asterion Mailing Centers.
