ENGLEWOOD, Colo.--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Prairie Interactive Messaging, a CSG Systems (NASDAQ: CSGS) company, today announced that Collection Advisor magazine has named its Multi-Channel Automated Collections Solution to its list of the top 50 collections products of 2008.

Prairie Interactive Messaging's Multi-Channel Automated Collections Solution allows companies to contact customers with delinquency reminders via their preferred communication channels such as interactive voice, SMS/text messaging, email and print, and present them with immediate payment options. Organizations benefit from the convenience of working with a single partner to manage their own multi-channel collections program. This increases the efficiency and effectiveness of their collections operations, drives down costs associated with traditional live agent collections, and ultimately helps realize more collections dollars.

"Prairie Interactive Messaging is honored to be recognized by Collection Advisor for having one of the top 50 collections products of 2008," said Ann Cannon, Vice President at Prairie Interactive Messaging. "This recognition highlights our continued dedication to providing our clients with the industry's leading customer interaction solutions that not only provide significant cost savings, but also boost customer convenience and satisfaction."

The Collection Advisor awards recognize those individuals and companies within the technology industry who have made an impact on collections technology and its associated community. Presented by Collection Advisor magazine, the winners of the Collection Advisor awards are chosen based on nominations and members of the award committee.
