Business Wire, June 1, 1999
ROY, Utah--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 1, 1999--
Iomega Corporation (NYSE:IOM) today announced a complete redesign of its popular Web site, www.iomega.com.
Enhancements include the ability to purchase products directly from the site, a retail location search engine, easy-to-find software downloads, additional technical support documentation and e-mail technical support. In celebration of the new site, site visitors can also register to win a complete home office makeover.
Currently, more than 1.5 million visitors come to www.iomega.com each month to learn more about the Company's products and to download the latest Iomega drivers and software. In fact since offering Norton(TM) Zip(R) Rescue as a free download, more than 650,000 copies have been downloaded from www.iomega.com. With Iomega's new look and feel, people will find it even easier to get the information, products and services they want.
"Our fun and engaging web site received more than a face-lift. We've improved our ability to serve the 1.5 million people that visit iomega.com each month," said Jodie Glore, president and CEO of Iomega Corporation. "In addition to providing visitors with useful, free software downloads, Internet users can now buy Iomega products directly, search for a nearby store and reach customer support via e-mail -- all from our Web site."
Web-based Zip(R), Jaz(R), and Clik!(TM) Drive and Disk and Buz(TM) Multimedia Producer Sales
For the first time ever, customers will be able to purchase award winning Zip(R), Jaz, and Clik! disks and drives and the Buz Multimedia Producer
directly from Iomega. The Company's decision to add a direct sales component was based upon the success of Iomega's web site and Internet users' growing confidence in purchasing products online. The direct sales site will initially serve U.S. customers. Interested buyers can begin ordering Iomega(R) products immediately at www.iomegadirect.com and have them shipped to their preferred location.
The Company intends to maintain a strong presence at its retail locations, and www.iomega.com also provides links to online retailers.
Web-based Technical Support
E-mail support & online tracking of product services lead Iomega's support site enhancements. These latest additions complement Iomega's existing web support tools and are part of the Company's continuing commitment to providing customer driven solutions.
Iomega Software Downloads
Iomega also provides a wide variety of software applications designed to help protect presentations, digital videos and photos, word documents and operating systems from Y2K and everyday computer viruses. -- Developed by Iomega, Quik Sync software automatically saves files
by detecting the presence of a Zip(R), Jaz or Clik! disk and by
automatically saving files from a folder, which the user selects.
Quik Sync software also allows for easy version control. A user
can save all revisions or simply keep the "latest and greatest"
version. -- Norton(TM) Zip(R) Rescue walks users step-by-step through the
creation of a "Rescue Disk." This Zip disk will help users
recover their Windows operating system quickly and easily,
complete with the user's original preferences should the computer
fail to start properly. -- IomegaWare(TM) provides the latest Iomega drivers and Iomega
Tools applications. Once IomegaWare is installed, users can
download and use other Iomega applications available for download
including 1-Step backup(TM), CopyMachine and FindIt.
