Epicenter
Overview
Easily distribute and update an address book or contacts folder to others in your organization. Epicenter is the perfect solution for sending your Exchange GAL or other company directory to remote users. Epicenter is easy to administer, installs automatically on users' computers, and works equally well for LAN or dial-up users. Epicenter can even share contacts between different email applications. It will take you less than five minutes to install and configure Epicenter for your organization.
Epicenter works with Outlook, Outlook Express / Windows Address Book / WAB, Netscape 7, and Lotus Notes. Address book updates are sent automatically and contain full contact information, including names, email addresses, street address, phone numbers, and distribution lists. Epicenter uses only established standards and requires no holes in your firewall.
Benefits
- Increase Availability. Users have access to contact data even when not connected to the Internet.
- Increased security. Epicenter requires no additional resources outside of your firewall, whereas LDAP requires a public connection point that could be compromised.
- Decrease IT workload. Make updates to remote personal address books an automatic process.
- Reduce recurring costs. Users aren’t constantly wasting time looking for contact information and updating their own address book.
- Low deployment costs. Epicenter works with your existing email applications, so software and training costs are kept to a minimum.
- Low migration costs. Epicenter reads your existing corporate directory or address book. It is not necessary to migrate to a new directory structure as required by products such as LDAP.
- Increase user satisfaction. By integrating with user’s existing address books, they will be able to use features such as name completion and directory browsing that are often unavailable with LDAP.
