SmartRelay is one of the solution that ContactLab offers to customers who want to manage transactional messages,
computerizes messages or anyway generated automatically from their systems, by exploiting the sending infrastructure and
the offered advantages from a big email service provider.
SmartRelay is shown as an SMTP interface between messages generated and inserted from the user and the final recipients,
by adding a series of additional services and information such as bounce management, tracking on openings and an internal suppression-list.
Starting from June 2012, SmartRelay customers have a new front-end to analyze the trend and statistics of their own sending.
On Dashboard (fig 1) it is possible to graphically view the trend of sent emails and bounce in the last 25 days, so you can immediately see possible anomalies.
Fig 1
You can also view the last generated events (in real time) and a summary of the number of sent emails, delivered emails, bounce and opened emails related to current year. You can also view the remaining credit (number of emails to be sent).
In this area you can download the files requested in the different areas of the platform in the last seven days (ex. report).
You can also view pending or in execution request (the request can be deleted).
