At Message Systems, we have identified core values — integrity, quality, responsibility — that define how we as a company do business. These values are not merely guidelines, but are the foundation on which our corporate culture is based, transcending individual personalities, situations and geography.
Where We Stand on Freedom of Choice
One Solution Does Not Fit All
Every client's needs and objectives are different. And because no single provider can claim to offer best-of-breed solutions for everything, it's essential to give clients the freedom to choose which products and applications make the most sense for their unique businesses. In fact, "best-of-breed" and "single-source" are inherently conflicting concepts. When it comes to technology solutions, one size definitely does not fit all.

- They're not limited solely to what's in-house
- There's a natural incentive for application and platform providers alike to continue innovating
Openness and freedom of choice not only keeps all parties' resources focused on their core competencies, it also drives consistent improvements to help them stay competitive and maintain best-of-breed status.
The independence of application and platform providers is vital to preserving the freedom of choice and pace of innovation the market demands. Message Systems' EcoNet model enables seamless interoperability of our leading message management platform with a wide array of applications, thereby giving our clients the power to decide which ones meet their business needs best — today and in the future. While single-source solutions are unavoidably closed and restrictive — locking clients in to just one option — EcoNet provides the flexibility to adapt to changing needs by augmenting applications or choosing new ones that may be a better fit.
We remain committed to this model, which is fundamentally superior to "captive" application and platform combinations that inhibit choice and innovation. We believe it to be in the best interests of our clients, the industry as a whole, and the future of digital messaging.
