[NPL] 'Vicom Technology' Changes Name To '...

'Vicom Technology' Changes Name To 'Vicomsoft' Why 'Vicom Technology' has changed its name to 'Vicomsoft' - More Appropriate to our Business Although the software products we create incorporate some original, exciting and leading edge technologies, our customers usually come to us for software solutions and not for the technologies by themselves. Accordingly, it is more appropriate for us to be known as 'Vicomsoft' rather than 'Vicom Technology'. - Easier to Find on the Internet With the increase in the use of the Internet as a communications medium, it was important for us to have a domain name that was easy for our users to find and remember. The domain name we were using 'vicomtech.com' was neither intuitive nor easy to find. Now, our business name and domain name are the same. Effective immediately our domain now is 'vicomsoft.com', our web site is at: http://www.vicomsoft.com and email to us is now addressed using the new domain. For example 'sales@vicomtech.com' will now be '...
