Hancock Rothert & Bunshoft’s Move to Lotus Notes Includes
Big Sky’s Remark! Unified MessagingAssistant

ORLANDO, Fla., January 28, 2002 — Big Sky welcomes the law firm Hancock Rothert & Bunshoft to its growing list of legal customers. The enterprise wide implementation of Big Sky’s Remark!® Unified MessagingAssistant™ for IBM Lotus Domino™ included the deployment of MESSAGEmanager Domino Fax™ at multiple office locations, including Hancock’s London offices.

With the goal of implementing best of breed collaboration applications for its mobile workforce, the international law firm Hancock Rothert & Bunshoft has selected Lotus Domino and Lotus Notes™. The firm's IT consultant, Rhonda Jenkins of Legal Web Technologies, recommended the deployment of a Lotus Domino-based unified communications solution from Big Sky Technologies. "Big Sky's Remark! Unified MessagingAssistant allows the firm's attorneys to use the telephone as a central access point for all of their critical client communications — voice, fax and email" says Jenkins. In addition to Remark!, the Hancock firm has implemented FrontOffice Suite, a Lotus Notes-based portal solution from Rippe Kingston, and WANDocs, an enterprise knowledge management application from e-BusinessInterface.

Remark! Unified MessagingAssistant allows the firm to transition away from their legacy Octel™ voice mail environment. "It is our goal to provide an enterprise wide unified communications solution that is easy to manage and administer while providing powerful features to improve the productivity of our attorneys and staff. Big Sky's solution is ideal for any business that wants to improve communications" says Reg Smith, Hancock's Information Systems Manager.

Hancock joins many other law firms who have implemented Remark! Unified MessagingAssistant as an integral part of their messaging infrastructure. Big Sky first delivered unified communications solutions for the Lotus Notes/Domino enterprise in 1996, and remains committed to ensuring that Remark! is the most tightly integrated unified communications solution for Lotus Domino customers.
