The Right Tools for Your Business

Effusia Business Messenger puts everything you need for managed real-time collaboration in your enterprise into a turnkey package. We've designed it from the ground up to meet the needs of small to medium businesses just like yours. Take a look at the features below and see what Effusia can do for you.

Centralized Administration

You wouldn't run your corporate email with HotmailTM, would you? Then you shouldn't rely on a consumer-grade instant messaging system either. You need the ability to manage all aspects of your corporate communication. Effusia gives you centralized administration of your entire real-time communication system so you stay in control.

  • Organize groups to reflect your corporate structure
  • Contact Lists are automatically generated from groups
  • Users immediately have access to the people they need
  • Easy-to-use Admin Tool simplifies group management
  • Server is deployed on your LAN
  • Integrates with Microsoft® Active Directory so you only have to manage one list of users

Security and Auditing

Don't expose yourself to security risks with consumer IM. Effusia keeps your messages private and gives you options for auditing all your communication.

  • Enforce usage policies with reports generated with Effusia Server Management
  • Manage centralized message logging to either rolling XML logs or an SQL database
  • Leverage your existing security infrastructure
  • Optionally encrypt connections using SSL
