Ceryx Delivers Unified Communications for the Enterprise
TORONTO, October 28th, 2009 - Ceryx Inc, the leading provider of
Enterprise-Grade Messaging, Collaboration and Unified Communication
Services has launched Microsoft Office Communication Server 2007 R2
(OCS), moving the company further in the direction of being able to
provide full Unified Communication functionality with custom
configuration and integration options for large organizations.
Microsoft Office Communications Server provides functionality
ranging from corporate-grade Instant Messaging and Presence to
complete Unified Communications including full VOIP integration. The
full Unified Communications solution allows organizations to
dramatically reduce telephony costs by replacing their traditional
phone systems with VOIP systems and benefit from tight audio, video
and text messaging integration across office phone, Microsoft Outlook
and mobile devices.
Ceryx will be supporting integration with legacy PBX/PSTN switches
currently supported by Microsoft in order to provide choice to
organizations facing telephony upgrades. Ceryx will also be supporting
federation with business partners, content archiving with multiple
vendors and public IM connectivity.
"Ceryx is committed to the Microsoft platform and continues to
develop it's long-term road map based on the market leader in
messaging," says Gus Harsfai, CEO and President of Ceryx Inc. "We also
recognize that many organizations have made significant investments in
other technologies and we are focused on delivering solutions that can
leverage and integrate those investments."
According to a report by Gartner research, by 2012, 20% of UC
[Unified Communications] users will be serviced via the
vendor-delivered SaaS model. The report goes on to state that many
organizations will balk at the cost and complexity of internally
supporting UC, as well as the required capital investment. They will
instead be attracted to the SaaS model, whereby a monthly fee is paid
for each subscribing employee.
"OCS is a highly functional and flexible SIP [Session Initiation Protocol ]
controller that has allowed us to build our own SIP filters to secure our
multi-tenant environment," says Dr. Dave Penny, CTO of Ceryx Inc. " OCS is a
great platform that allows customization so that its full potential can be
realized."
Ceryx Hosted OCS standard, which includes secure, corporate-grade
Instant Messaging and Presence, Peer-to-Peer Video and Audio chat as
well as tight integration with Exchange and SharePoint will be
available immediately. For more complex, customized applications
please contact sales@ceryx.com to arrange a consultation with a sales
engineer.
