Why use Message Pad?

Why do I need eMercury Message Pad? I currently use phone message pads or just send an email?

Benefits of Message Pad over paper message pads.
  No more lost and delayed messages - one of the major draw backs with paper messages is that they get lost or buried under other papers on the recipients desk. With Message Pad, the message copies are in your private or team folders and the original is in the recipients inbox.
  Convenience - taking a message for someone else is often an interruption to your work. When the call arrives, looking for a notepad and pen to write the message can add minutes to that interruption and does not create a good image to the caller. With Message Pad, it's a single click of the button from Outlook and your ready to capture the information.
  Reduced cost - once you've purchased your Message Pad license, all messages are taken at no extra charge. We calculate that with typical costs for paper message pads, eMercury Message Pad could pay for itself while still in the free evaluation phase and before you've spent a penny (see below).
  Accessibility - with people spending more time out of the office, taking a message that is then left on the recipients desk is not a timely solution. The recipient is unaware that the message exists unless they phone the office, the office calls them (more cost and inconvenience) or wait until they return to their desk. With Message Pad and mobile email, the recipient receives the messages efficiently via email. If they do not have mobile email, they can still efficiently obtain messages, by phoning the office and anyone in the team with access to Message Pad public folders can quickly and easily access all messages left for their colleague. (Message Pad alerts via SMS coming soon for those without mobile email)

Benefits of Message Pad over sending standard emails.
  Accessibility - Messages in my inbox look no different than any other message. With Message Pad I can quickly see that an email is a telephone message and I can even setup inbox rules to filter them into a separate folder.
  Convenience - when I phone in to the office for messages, only the person that took the message or someone with access to my inbox can give me my messages. With Message Pad I can speak to anyone in my team and they can see the messages taken by all team member at a click of a button.
  Efficiency - every message is in a clear and consistent format making it efficient to capture information when the caller leaves the message as well as quick and simple to retrieve the information without having to read an unformatted email.
  Minimises interruptions - when taking a call for a colleague, I listen to the caller, make notes on my note pad and then create an email with the message details. With Message Pad, this interruption is minimised as a single click provides me with prompts for information and a place to capture and send, allowing me to quickly return to work after the interruption.

Audited history

Once sent, a copy of the message will be placed in your Sent Message Pad folder in Outlook. This provides you with a time stamped copy of the message taken so that if your colleague telephones for messages, you can see what has been sent to them and read them back without leaving your desk and with the minimum of interruption.

As shown in figure 4, the Sent Message Folder is pre-formatted to allow easy and quick display of messages taken for your colleagues. The view displays all the messages sent, grouped by colleague name, with a preview of the full message when selected.
