Features and Characteristics

One essential criterion for using a powerful and flexible unified messaging solution is last but not least the seamless integration into the IT-environment of a company. With IXI-UMS, this is realized by using standards that allow a smooth collaboration of Novell GroupWise and serVonic's IXI-UMS:
- Sending and reception via SMTP
- Access to mailboxes / remote inquiry via IMAP
- Access to user data via LDAP
Via this architecture, it is possible to deliver the UM-messsages (IXI-UMS faxes, SMS and voicemails) correctly to the users' mailboxes, to check permissions und to enable users to administrate, send and receive these messages like normal e-mails without having to learn something special. Which client operating system you use and with which mail system you work, plays a secondary role. The IXI-UMS Kernel takes care of the rendering process and of the connection to the PBX or the PSTN. IXI-UMS can be used as UM-server or fax system in connection with IP-based, ISDN-based or hybrid PBX's.
SMTP
serVonic's fax solution IXI-UMS communicates with GroupWise Server based on the standard SMTP. Outbound faxes are transferred for being sent to the IXI-UMS server if the GroupWise Internet Agent (GWIA) is configured accordingly. Inbound faxes and fax sending reports are delivered to the respective users when the IXI-UMS server is connected to the Novell GroupWise Server via the IXI-UMS SMTP Connector.
Single Point of Administration: LDAP for User Management
For the user administration, no separate address book or separate user data base is necessary. The users administration can be realized in the Novell eDirectory directly - without extension of the schema.
Clients
A separate IXI-UMS client is not necessary, the conventional mail program like Novell GroupWise or GroupWise WebAccess is used as client.
