Ensim and BroadSoft to Deliver Complete Unified Communications Solution Integrated With Microsoft Applications for Telecommunications Service Providers
(Market Wire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) NEW ORLEANS, LA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 07/13/09 --
WPC09, Booth # 327 -- Ensim Corporation,
the leading provider of change management, user provisioning and access
control software, together with BroadSoft®, today announced a
collaborative demonstration of a new unified communications (UC) solution
based on Ensim Unify, the leading provisioning platform for automating the
creation, activation and configuration of hosted IP, SaaS and application
services. The new solution, which has been successfully deployed by
Outsourcery Limited (formerly Genesis Communications Limited), a U.K.-based
provider of UC and hosted IT solutions, will be demonstrated at the Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference
2009 in New Orleans.
Based on Ensim's latest release of Ensim Unify Service Provider Edition, 4.7.0, the
production-ready system features support for BroadSoft's
BroadWorks® VoIP application platform, the Microsoft Solution for
Hosted Messaging and Collaboration (HMC) 4.5, Microsoft Exchange Server
2007 and Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 R2 to provide a robust
solution for service providers looking to deliver a complete "Unified Communications
Solution as a service" offering to small and medium-sized enterprises.
"Creating a comprehensive hosted UC solution presents a unique set of
challenges due to the complexity of integrating multiple applications from
multiple vendors in a unified and turnkey manner," said David J. Wippich,
president and CEO of Ensim Corporation. "Ensim Unify enables service
providers to quickly, easily and inexpensively launch and manage a hosted
UC offering that combines state-of-the-art, self-management capabilities
with unrivaled flexibility."
"This combined effort provides Outsourcery with the ability to
revolutionize the way start-ups and SMBs consume and pay for all their
communications and IT needs," said Piers Linney, director of Outsourcery.
"By offering a complete hosted UC solution on a per user, per month basis,
SMBs gain access to enterprise-level solutions without the need for
expensive hardware or onerous maintenance contracts."
The companies will host a demonstration of the UC solution during the
Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference, July 13-16. The demo includes the
following features:
-- Ensim Unify BroadWorks Manager -- gives service providers enhanced
capabilities to automate provisioning and integrate with their existing
Operational Support System (OSS) to rapidly introduce, deliver, and manage
VoIP services.
-- Ensim Unify Exchange Manager -- allows service providers and resellers
to flexibly combine Exchange Server 2007 functions into a full range of
custom service plans.
-- Ensim Unify OCS (R2) Manager -- a complete, role-based access
management solution that can be deployed just for Office Communications
Server 2007 R2 or across the entire unified communications infrastructure;
enables self-service for management of features like group chat lists.
-- Complete UC functionality -- integrated business telephony, video
telephony, collaboration, call centers, mobile/wireless integration, and
CEPBP/enterprise application integration for key business tools like CRM
and ERP.
"The global unified communications market is growing to be a $6 billion
market opportunity for service providers," said John Zanni, general manager
of Worldwide Software Plus Services in the communications sector at
Microsoft Corp. "The ability for industry partners such as Ensim to provide
a complete UC solution offers a real-time experience for end users by
integrating telephony and desktop applications without carrying costs of IT
equipment and support."
"Unified Communications is incredibly powerful, but often its cost and
complexity has made it accessible only to large enterprises," said David
Bukovsky, vice president of products, BroadSoft®. "This has been a major
impetus behind the growing demand for 'UC as a Service' -- UC provided 'in
the cloud' by service providers. This collaborative solution not only gives
service providers the capability to fulfill a market demand, but it does so
in a way that allows them to rapidly and cost effectively scale and grow
their business."
