NaviSite
Selects Ensim Unify to Rapidly Launch Exchange 2003
Services [28th October 2003]
Sunnyvale, Calif., Oct. 28, 2003 –
Ensim Corporation, the global leader in hosting automation
software, today announced that NaviSite, Inc., a leading
provider of application, messaging and infrastructure
management services, is the first company to launch
services based on the Ensim Unify platform. NaviSite
was able to deploy hosted Microsoft Exchange Server
2003-based services to its customers within the first
30 days of selecting Ensim Unify.
Ensim Unify is the result of close collaboration
between Microsoft Corp. and Ensim Corp., to provide
the first operation support system and a portfolio of
snap-in software for specific hosted services, such
as Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 and ASP.NET Web sites.
A carrier grade solution, Ensim Unify offers a common
set of processes for resource management, provisioning,
monitoring, metering and self-management; and a single
point of integration for existing business systems,
new services and emerging technologies.
“Being one of the first companies
to offer managed Exchange 2003 is proof positive that
we are committed to offering our customers innovative
services based on leading-edge technologies,”
said Will Scott, vice president of products and services,
at NaviSite, Inc. “After evaluating other software
solutions, it was clear that Ensim Unify was the right
product that would let us come to market quickly with
the robust provisioning and management features that
our customers require.”
Ensim Unify enables NaviSite to provide
its customers with the latest Exchange Server 2003-based
offerings and a high quality of service. It allowed
NaviSite to meet its aggressive time-to-market schedule
for Hosted Exchange, with minimal upfront costs and
risks. With Ensim Unify, NaviSite can efficiently deploy
and deliver a full range of tiered services with the
opportunity to maximize on revenues per customer.
“We wanted to be up and running
on Exchange Server 2003, specifically its rich-mailbox
capabilities, as quickly as possible,” said Craig
Campbell, vice president of engineering and operations
at One Mind Connect, one of first users of NaviSite’s
Exchange 2003 service. “We selected NaviSite’s
service to get quick access to the features of Exchange
2003, but without the burden of the internal support
it requires.”
“We’re excited to partner
with a leader like NaviSite on their Exchange Server
2003 services,” said Steve Dauber, vice president
of Ensim Corporation. “The combination of Ensim
software and NaviSite’s premium hosting services
will enable small and mid-sized businesses to benefit
from leading edge technologies far faster than has been
historically possible.”
