submitted for consideration in more than 40 categories. Unica joins
four other organizations as a Finalist for �Best Customer Service
Organization� and 18 other companies as a Finalist for �Best
Overall Company.� �We are very pleased to be selected as a Stevie
Award Finalist for the second year in a row,� said Yuchun Lee,

achievements in building truly great relationships with our
customers. This recognition is a testament to our continued
commitment to achieve the highest levels of customer satisfaction
and development.� Members of the Awards' Board of Distinguished
