Gauteng-based Linux services provider Synaq has established a partnership with Scalix, a US-based international messaging infrastructure company, to provide the local market with new Linux-based server infrastructure.
"The alliance presents Synaq with an opportunity to distribute and implement a new generation messaging platform that is a full Microsoft Exchange replacement on Linux, and is fully compatible with Microsoft Outlook," says Synaq in a statement.
The open source product will be deployed at a fraction of the cost of Exchange, and with more stability and security," claims Yossi Hasson, sales and marketing director at Synaq.
He adds that the product is targeted at a broad spectrum of organisations, with capacity to support businesses of all sizes.
"We are very excited about this development - it offers us a significant opportunity to extend our reach into the market with a new offering that will add value," says Hasson.
The solution is scalable so it adapts easily to the changing needs of the environment and grows with the company, he adds. The foundation is solid and cuts down on messaging costs by consolidating workgroup servers, says Synaq.
