Solcara Spotlight; the Next Generation of the Premier Media Relations Software Launched Today

Solcara Spotlight 6.3 is launched, and development plans for 6.5 are announced with easy to use functionality that maintains Spotlight’s status as Europe’s leading Media Relations Management Software.

London, United Kingdom, May 28, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Solcara Limited, leading provider of Media Relations Management Software, and part of the AIM listed Access Intelligence PLC (ACC:L), has today laid out comprehensive development plans for its Spotlight product. Increased functionality and ease of use will deliver significant productivity and efficiency benefits to media and public relations teams across all industry sectors. These plans are a direct result of talking to customers and prospects, and will provide them with unrivalled capabilities to deliver, track and monitor their corporate messages, within their target audience.

The first of these developments is the immediate release of Solcara Spotlight 6.3. This release provides functionality for the wider marketing communications team, as well as media and public relations teams, thereby delivering a more significant return on investment. It encompasses the ability to capture, monitor and analyse internal affairs and issues, and manage communications requests by department.

Furthermore Spotlight 6.3 facilitates a more proactive approach to communications and enables the recording of key messages inherent in media and other stakeholder announcements and their tracking. Comprehensive reports have been added that help demonstrate the value and effectiveness of all public and media relations activities. Finally, Solcara Spotlight 6.3 enables the quick capture of Freedom of Information requests, and provides reports to ensure that responses are delivered within designated timeframes.

“Making this new functionality available in one integrated product suite, will significantly improve the productivity of users”, states Charlie O’Rourke, Sales and Marketing Director at Solcara.
