Synacor, Inc. (Nasdaq: SYNC), a cloud-based software and
services company serving global video, internet and communications
providers, device manufacturers, governments and enterprises, today
provided additional details regarding its previously announced
customer wins and deal expansions for Zimbra, the company’s email
and collaboration platform. For the third quarter of 2019, the
company reported more than 80 new Zimbra deals and an expansion of
190 existing customer deployments. Zimbra continues to achieve
success with a diverse range of businesses and organizations,
spanning government, financial services, education and nonprofits.
Key growth and migration drivers included security, privacy, data
sovereignty, and demand for access to emerging features and
capabilities that have become critical in an evolving
communications landscape.
During Q3, Synacor added new customers that included the
Croatian Government, a telecommunications and electric utility in
Central America, and a governmental science organization in Europe.
Ukrainian-based food processing company Schedro, LLC, was also one
of many new customers migrating to Zimbra, with the company’s Head
of IT Infrastructure, Maxim Zabroda, noting, “The Zimbra email
platform has proved to be the best solution for a quick and smooth
switch to a new email and collaboration platform.”
Indonesia-based financial insurance company, PT Asuransi Asei ,
which emphasizes its technology-based integrated services, also
touted the benefits of Zimbra. “After using Zimbra Collaboration
Open Source Edition since 2014, we worked with Zimbra channel
partner Jabetto to migrate to Zimbra Network Edition and take
advantage of business-ready features with reliable support and low
total cost of ownership,” said Nil Kalvin, IT Head at PT Asuransi
Asei. “With Zimbra Network Edition, we also gain access to Zimbra
Backup and Zimbra Drive, adding a layer of security, privacy and
data sovereignty made possible by the ability to host content on
our own servers, which is important to us as an insurance
company.”
Zimbra 8.8.15 continues to advance with updates and enhancements
to Backup, Zimbra Connector for Outlook (ZCO), security and more.
Synacor also continues to make strides in enhancing its cloud-based
Zimbra X for broader market reach. Development on Zimbra X for
Business was completed in Q3 and is beginning to roll out with
select partners and an expanded feature set that includes the
extensibility needed to create a customized collaboration
experience and the ability to accommodate private cloud
deployments. Deployments are expected to begin in the first half of
2020 following proof-of-concept work already underway.
Zimbra X for Consumers, which launched in Q1, is sold through
service providers that want to deliver a better email and
collaboration experience with higher reliability to subscribers.
Synacor struck a deal for the service with another large U.S.
operator during Q3, marking its third such contract this year.
“Zimbra’s reputation as an increasingly attractive alternative
to costly, proprietary email and collaboration solutions is a
testament to our laser focus on providing the features and
functionality our global customer base needs, making Zimbra the
sound decision for commercial or government organizations,” said
Marcus Teo, SVP Enterprise Sales and Marketing, Synacor. “We
accelerate the digital transformation for customers eager for
Zimbra’s public and private cloud-based feature set as well as
superior control over their data, where it resides and how it is
accessed.”
