Dundee Internet Services, Inc.

Dundee Internet Services was formed as a dialup ISP. A year later Dundee Internet determined not to be just another Internet Service Provider decided to expand, aspiring to be a worldwide list hosting company, an ESP. The search for the optimal list software was on. After substantial research and consideration, we selected to work with a small California firm that had developed list-hosting software. In early 1997, we became the first paying customer of this California firm, making us the first company worldwide to offer Lyris ListManager™ as an ESP (Email Service Provider). With ListManager™ (and other related products) installed on our servers, we knocked on the doors of the local industry to introduce this powerful communication and marketing software tool. Unfortunately, at first, most did not get it, or see the future of using email altogether; in retrospect, today in 2019 and beyond they can’t live without.  We added WordPress and design shortly thereafter to complement our list hosting services.
