FOSTER CITY, Calif. - June 22, 2004 - FaceTime
Communications, the leading provider of solutions that secure,
manage, and extend instant messaging (IM) and other forms of
real-time communications, today announced it is offering AIM
Enterprise Gateway (AIM-EG) customers and all AOL-certified IM
management vendor customers, free migration to IMAuditor™. FaceTime
is also offering free technical support for all AIM-EG customers,
resellers or partners to protect existing enterprise IM investments
and mitigate the need for immediate migration. "These customers
originally selected AIM Enterprise Gateway, because of the proven
FaceTime technology powering the product," said FaceTime Senior
Vice President of Marketing and Business Development Christopher
Dean. "Now that AOL has decided to end-of-life its enterprise IM
offering, FaceTime wants to ensure that these valued IM users are
transitioned to a complete solution for the safe use of IM in the
workplace. FaceTime and AOL's relationship continues to grow and
expand in a number of exciting areas." (Note upcoming RT Matrix
announcement.) FaceTime will continue to support AIM-EG customers,
and when these customers are ready, FaceTime ensures the easiest
upgrade path due to the shared technology base in the AIM-EG
product. FaceTime will offer AIM-EG and other customers of
AOL-Certified vendors:
- Free upgrade to IMAuditor
- Free technical support for ease of transition
- Free license to FaceTime's upcoming RT Matrix embedded APIs and
SDKs to extend multi-network IM and presence capabilities
- Preferred pricing on RTG500, FaceTime's solution for ensuring
IM application behavior management
- And free migration services to IMAuditor.
By deploying IMAuditor, users of AIM-EG and other AOL-certified
IM management solutions gain support of all the major networks with
the added assurance of working with the same IM security and
compliance leader they trust and have always relied on. FaceTime is
the only IM vendor to offer:
- A complete Defense-in-Depth approach, enabling both IM user
policy management and network security against rogue IM and P2P
usage.
