WALTHAM, MA--(Marketwire - June 9, 2010) - [ Unica Corporation ] (NASDAQ: [ UNCA ]), the recognized leader in [ marketing software ] solutions, today announced its award-winning Pivotal Veracity eDesign Optimizer provides [ email rendering ] imaging for the iPad. The addition of this critical technology further solidifies the role played by Unica in the cross-platform design optimization space.

Apple sold one million iPads in just twenty days, forty-six days faster than it sold its one-millionth iPhone. Consumer fervor for the device has resulted in companies scrambling to release iPad-ready applications as part of their mobile commerce strategies. There are common design elements such as short concise links, no pre-header, and single column layouts that work best across all devices, and iPad is no different.

With marketers challenged to ensure that these applications properly render, Unica Pivotal Veracity allows them to preview exactly how their emails will look across all major email clients including North American cable email providers, international email clients, multiple versions of the leading Outlook desktop email client, and a host of mobile clients such as the iPhone, Android, BlackBerry, Palm, and now the iPad.

"We're hearing from a lot of smart marketers who want to leverage the rich email capabilities of the iPad; its video-enabled inbox is ideal for delivering effective email communications," said Michelle Eichner, vice president, product management, Unica. "But different screen sizes present new rendering issues, which marketers must consider; this makes optimization so much more important in order to ensure brand continuity."
