Time is Money
Many businesses see the need to take control of their own IM infrastructures, but many of these infrastructures are only offered as add-ons to complex, large-footprint groupware environments that are very costly and require high administrative overhead. Ipswitch Instant Messaging is a manageable solution that gives you a unique combination of features and built-in security.
Make security a priority
IM is so convenient and useful, many users take the initiative to install free IM clients in their work environment, but, because these free services rely on public servers outside the control of the business, they expose the organization to security and confidentiality risks. Proprietary information could be exposed or confidentiality laws such as the Health Insurance Portability and AccountabilityAct (HIPAA) may be violated unknowingly. Ipswitch Instant Messaging’s built-in security ensures confidentiality and security of your organization’s information.
