Exclusive! – Plaxo To Launch New Premium Suite

In response to my feature, questioning how networking sites like Plaxo were going to make money, Stacy Martin, Plaxo’s Privacy Officer, informed Connected that Plaxo will be launching later today Plaxo Premium Suite. Plaxo Premium Suite will include two additional premium services combined with existing VIP Support offering. The two new premium services are:

• Plaxo Address Book Optimizer (ABO)
• Plaxo Mobile Access

Both of these services have been in beta for a number of months and gone through extensive testing and user feedback.The ABO helps to remove duplicates quickly and efficiently, while Plaxo Mobile Access provides access to you contacts and calendar from anywhere, anytime through your WAP enabled phone.

All 3 services are available separately, or may be purchased together as part of the Plaxo Premium Suite.

Stacy stated that:

“Plaxo’s goal is to help people better manage, access, and utilize their personal information. Our Premium Suite, in addition to our other services such as our Birthday Reminder and Holiday list services rolled out last year are just a few examples with other services to be rolled out soon. To give you an idea as to what some of the other services may be, take a look at our User Forum for product suggestions”

and also,

“….Plaxo’s business plan has always been to provide a useful free service, but also offer equally compelling premium services on top of the free basic service.”

I have just checked the Plaxo site for more details and none have appeared so this is a genuine exclusive! Thanks for taking the time to visit Connected Stacey and for giving the Connected its first exclusive!
