Ensim, a provider of service enablement and automation software for hosted IP and application services, has launched updated service managers for Hosted Exchange and BlackBerry, bringing efficiency and productivity benefits to service providers and their customers.

Co-developed with Microsoft, the Ensim Unify Service Manager for Hosted Exchange 2003 enables service providers to centrally create, control, and deliver hosted IP and application services. It is one of a number of ready-to-deploy software modules that integrate an application with the resources and capabilities of the Unify platform and enable the application to be rapidly deployed and operated as a service.

The new version of the Ensim Unify Service Manager for Hosted Exchange 2003 and BlackBerry provides automatic provisioning of mobile devices, mobile device data management, installations over existing HMC setups, and support for multiple languages.

"The expanded functionality of our new Unify Service Manager enables providers to achieve even greater profitability and value from Microsoft Exchange Server 2003," said Francois Depayras, vice president, Sales and Marketing, Ensim. "This latest product enhancement is further proof of our commitment to help providers more easily and efficiently deliver and manage unified communications applications through the Unify platform."
