Byte Software to offer a la mode Mortgage XSites to users of its BytePro LOS

MINNEAPOLIS, MN — a la mode, provider of the most reliable and robust workflow and business management tools in the mortgage industry, and Byte Software, a leading provider of mortgage software allowing brokers, credit unions and banks to pre-qualify, originate and process loans, announced an integration between Byte Software's BytePro Loan Origination Software and a la mode's Mortgage XSite websites.

Byte Software will offer BytePro users a fully integrated Mortgage XSite as an enhanced feature. Mortgage XSites are websites for mortgage originators including 140+ themes, dozens of pre-written content pages available in English and hand translated Spanish, FlexApp, the easiest to use 1003 for borrowers online, 16 calculators, and more. Included in the BytePro user package will be free technical support, 10 virus-free e-mailboxes, free .com domain name registration, and feature updates and add-ons for the entire year.

BytePro is Byte Software's next generation of loan origination software. It is the result of more than two years of research and development efforts focused on improving the traditional loan origination software. BytePro features synchronized piggyback loans, loan alerts, marketing letters, and a comprehensive set of sales tools.

BytePro users who take advantage of special pricing on a Mortgage XSite will have the ability to import and export loan applications and upload and download documents and exchange loan status details between their mortgage website and their LOS.

"Since debuting Mortgage XSites one year ago, a la mode has made brokers and loan officers more productive and made it possible for them to have a more professional, attractive online presence," said Joe Herb, General Manager for Byte Software. "Combined with the new release of BytePro, mortgage professionals will have the most advanced tools available to anyone, including the largest mortgage originators."

"Byte Software users are used to tools that make them more productive and efficient and allow them to offer superior customer service," said Brad Eaton, Mortgage XSites Product Manager with a la mode. "With Mortgage XSites, they'll enjoy those benefits online."

"BytePro and Mortgage XSites level the playing field, giving companies with small- to medium-sized mortgage volume the tools to grow and succeed in an increasingly competitive environment," Eaton said.
