msXsms® is integrated with your Microsoft® Exchange Server: no plug-ins or extra add-ons are needed in order to send SMS directly from Exchange. No client software, no changes to Active Directory schema, and no software installation on Exchange servers is required. Instead, the power of msXsms® hinges on its email-based nature, as msXsms® integrates directly to Microsoft® Exchange Server via SMTP Connectors.
Crucial business tools and applications, including Outlook and Exchange can now be powered with the flexibility of SMS messaging. In fact, any program which is already configured to work with Microsoft® Exchange Server is now able to leverage the benefits of integrated SMS through msXsms®.
> Limitless Communication - How It Works
msXsms® makes communication simple. Microsoft® Exchange Server integration allows you to use existing applications such as Microsoft Outlook to generate an SMS. This allows an employee to create an SMS in a familiar and proven environment, with minimal retraining required.
By leveraging Active Directory and your Exchange server, msXsms® utilises existing security controls provided by Active Directory and Exchange Instead, your SMS communication remains centralised - linking to your organisation's address lists and public folder contacts.
The seamless integration offered by msXsms® means that automated SMS communication can be generated from existing applications, negating the need for extensive integration projects and modification to core applications. The result is communication without limits: easy, fast and direct.
> Risk and complianceHaving control over SMS messaging through Exchange means your business can leverage existing internal cost centres and produce subsequent SMS traffic reports, allowing for full auditing and compliance purposes.
Intelligent message routing to SMSGlobal production and DR sites provides your organisation with redundancy in mobile messaging communication. Dual carrier support provides dynamic routing of SMS messages. If a SMPP connection fails, msXsms® will automatically route messages to the SMSGlobal disaster recovery SMSC.
> Proven Success - A Suncorp and GIO Insurance Case StudyFollowing the numerous natural disasters that befell many Australian regions over the course of 2010, general insurers Suncorp became rapidly aware of a need for a more efficient system of communication with clients to help quickly and efficiently process insurance claims. To further complicate matters, many flood and storm victims had lost paperwork, had no access to computers, and were at the mercy of a majorly disrupted postal mail system.
Using msXsms® to manage direct SMS contact with disaster affected customers, Suncorp & GIO Insurance were able to manage claims processing for tens of thousands of cases. Each month, approximately 24,000 SMS were sent during the height of the floods enabling the quickest and easiest way for Suncorp & GIO Insurance to communicate claims progress with customers, while strengthening satisfactions levels with minimal outlay.
Given the previous success of the system, the use of msXsms® is now on track to expand to millions of messages every year across the Suncorp group.
