Interface Systems Announces Contract to Provide Advest Group With MyCopy(TM) Internet/Intranet Statement Delivery Software ANN ARBOR, Mich., Dec. 16 /PRNewswire/ -- Interface Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: INTF - news), the leading provider of Legacy-to-Internet technology (L2i(TM)), today announced an agreement to provide The Advest Group, Inc. with its MyCopy online client statement delivery software.

The agreement marks one of many for Interfaces' Internet/Intranet statement delivery software in the securities brokerage industry, which is a primary target market for Interface. Advest Group, a diversified financial services company with 90 offices in 16 states, will use MyCopy to reduce the cost and time associated with the internal delivery of duplicate client statements to Advest's investment executives. ``MyCopy is ideally suited to the brokerage industry, where large networks of investment consultants require timely access to literally millions of client accounts,' said Robert Nero, CEO and president of Interface. ``We're pleased that a progressive, technology-based company such as Advest has recognized the benefits of MyCopy and committed to a major rollout of the product throughout their systemwide network.' ``Interface's MyCopy software will reduce our internal delivery of client statements from days to hours,' said Ernie Smith, chief information officer for Advest. ``The new software not only eliminates the need for second copies, but it will greatly improve our ability to respond to clients. ``Therefore, our client service will improve. Our investment professionals will see an exact copy of the client's statement so that when a client has a question on a statement, they can instantly access the statement, go directly to the page where the client has a question, and help the client immediately,' Smith said. ``Our investment executives will spend less time on the phone answering questions plus they will be providing faster service with more accurate answers.'
