FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 24, 2025 Contact For Further Information: Tribute Technology 315 Raemisch Rd., Ste G Waunakee, WI, 53597 press@tributetech.com Tribute Technology Announces Obit360: A Reimagined Obituary Experience for the Digital Age WAUNAKEE, WI – Tribute Technology has announced the upcoming launch of Obit360 , a next-generation obituary platform that transforms how families and communities engage with online memorials. Obit360 is the most significant evolution of Tribute Technology’s obituary experience to date, delivering a faster, more intuitive, and emotionally resonant design built for today’s digital expectations. Optimized for mobile, powered by improved SEO, and designed to increase engagement and revenue, Obit360 helps funeral homes better serve families while elevating their online presence. “Obit360 is the result of listening closely to our clients and the families they serve,” said Craig Greenseid, CEO of Tribute Technology. “We knew the obituary experience needed to evolve — so we built something faster, smarter, and more personal. Obit360 helps funeral homes create deeper connections and greater value from their websites.” Matt Powell, Tribute Technology’s Chief Technology Officer, added, “We’re seeing a fundamental shift in how families connect and grieve, and it’s happening online. In the first 48 hours after a death, more than 25% of all obituary traffic occurs, and that traffic is not passive. It drives condolence messages, flower orders, donations, even attendance. Obit360 was built to meet this moment: to turn every obituary into an engine of connection, compassion, and community, and to help funeral homes turn visibility into real-world impact.” Built for the Way People Engage Today Obit360 was designed using real user behavior, family feedback, and industry best practices. It introduces a clean, scrollable layout that places details all in one continuous view — no tabs or extra clicks required. With 70–80% of visitors arriving on mobile, the platform delivers a smooth, intuitive experience on any device while keeping the focus on the loved one being honored. Pages load 30% faster, rank higher in search results, and display sympathy gift options directly within the tribute — leading to a 60% increase in purchases. The straightforward design helps reduce confusion, minimizing support calls from families and guests. Real Results for Funeral Homes Firms using Obit360 report major improvements: obituary page visits have increased by 97%, condolence messages by 86%, and sympathy gift purchases by 60%. With fewer support requests, stronger engagement, and a more modern online presence, funeral homes are deepening their connection with families while elevating their digital brand. Available Soon Obit360 will be available first to funeral homes on Tribute Technology’s Premier Partner Network, with expanded availability to follow.

Together, we will build on Tribute Technology’s strong foundation, serving our funeral home customers and the families they support in their communities.” Prior to joining Tribute Technology, Greenseid held senior leadership roles at companies such as Blackboard and PowerSchool — where he served as Chief Revenue Officer and led a go-to-market organization that significantly expanded the company’s reach in the K-12 education technology space, an area he remains passionate about as the husband to a veteran teacher with 23 years of experience. His appointment formalizes his transition from board advisor to operational leader, joining Courtney Gould Miller, President of Commercial Markets, and Matt Powell, Chief Technology Officer, who have been with Tribute Technology for a combined six years. Together they will drive Tribute Technology’s long-term strategic success. “Craig has been an excellent partner to the Tribute Technology team while advising for Carlyle,” said Gould Miller. “His leadership, insight, and strategic perspective have been invaluable as a board member for the past two years. Having him step into the CEO role to lead the team through the next phase of innovation is ideal for our thousands of customers and our 450 employees.” Over the past year, Tribute Technology has broadened its leadership team by appointing a new Chief Financial Officer, Anthony Cali, and Chief Operating Officer, Joshua Gibbs, which has reinforced the company’s commitment to stability and future innovation.
