charge

 

LUXEMBOURG, June 30, 2010–Open-Xchange, a provider of business-class open source

e-mail and collaboration software, announced today an agreement with EuroDNS, a

domain name registrar specialized in international domain extensions, to offer

hosted e-mail and collaboration.

 

 

Within the next month, more than 250,000 customersof EuroDNS will get both

Open-Xchange webmail and PIM (Personal Information Management) at no additional

charge with an option to move to full groupware, as well as support for mobile

devices.

 

“Our SME (small- and medium-size enterprise) customers have been asking us for

hosted applications to improve their office communication and securely store

their documents,†said Xavier Buck, CEO of EuroDNS. “Open-Xchange is the ideal

platform to extend our application services from hosting to SaaS. Open-Xchange

provides unmatched user experience and features, along with a very attractive

price point for our customers."

 

"Open-Xchange helps service providers to gain competitive advantage and

significantly grow profitability,†said Rafael Laguna, CEO of Open-Xchange. “By

leveraging our Open-Xchange software, EuroDNS will strengthen their relationship

with existing customers, increase their average revenue per user and attract new

customers."

 

Open-Xchange software integrates e-mail, calendar, contact and task management

with advanced groupware features such as information management and document

sharing. Productivity is enhanced through unique teamwork features, like team

view, single-password document sharing, and shared calendars, contacts, tasks

and documents.

 

 

With recently introduced “Social OX†features, Open-Xchange also gives users the

ability to consolidate any kind of existing webmail accounts — for example from

Google and Yahoo — into a folder in Open-Xchange so they can be managed more

easily. In addition, contact details from social networks such as Facebook,

LinkedIn or Xing can be added automatically to the Open-Xchange address book —

giving users easy access to the latest contact information within their personal

network. Users can now integrate and merge their address books from Google Mail

and Facebook into Open-Xchange, as well.

 

 

Open-Xchange is used by more than 15 million users worldwide as hosted and

on-premises business-class e-mail and groupware.
