Productivity Diagnostic Tool Released to Gauge Email Overload

 RepriseMail has announced the availability of its Free Email Overload Diagnostic tool that allows Microsoft Outlook users to determine the impact email overload has on worker productivity. The new tool helps executives understand the nature of their overloading problem in order to identify a true email problem or email-management inefficiencies. RepriseMail diagnosis email overload through business intelligence on 20 performance indicators based on how employees use email.

“Most executives and managers know their people are drowning in email, but truly cannot say what that means for the firm’s productivity,” said Bret Beresford-Wood, CEO at RepriseMail. “Is email overload merely an inconvenience, or is it massively eroding productivity? That’s the question we are helping people answer.”

RepriseMail installs into Microsoft Outlook in order to analyze the email behavior of each user. Insights are provided weekly via email report and through an online business intelligence dashboard. Reporting capabilities include analysis at the company level down to the departmental and individual levels. Reports include side-by-side comparisons for peer benchmarking and trend tracking for recognizing behavioral changes over time.

“Ultimately, we don’t just want to help firms diagnose email overload,” said COO Paul Burton, “our paying subscribers will also receive a suite of tools that help each employee conquer email overload, so they can get through email in less time and without the stress.”
