Update to email and collaboration platform
rolls out amid global trend toward distributed workforces, and
introducing choice, customization and extensibility with a modern
UI for the best Zimbra experience yet
Synacor Inc. (NASDAQ: SYNC) today announced that it has kicked
off 2020 with 260 new and growth Zimbra deals, adding more than 70
new customers and expanding 190 accounts during Q1, as Zimbra
remains central to COVID-19 distributed workforces requiring
uncompromised security and privacy, as well as a highly extensible,
open core, feature-rich and value-driven collaboration
platform.
The continued customer deployment success comes as Zimbra 9
enters general availability, featuring a React-based user interface
with modern, easy-to-use features. Zimbra 9 includes a new Zimlet
framework and a growing list of out-of-the-box integrations,
including popular apps like Slack, Dropbox and Zoom, and is already
in use internationally. The new Zimbra 9 product also adds renewed
motivation for customer upgrades. Meanwhile, Synacor’s Zimbra
Connect product remains in demand for its one-to-one and
multichannel chat, videoconference, and file-sharing
capabilities.
“Q1 2020 was about evolution and an exciting new chapter as
Zimbra 9 and Zimbra Cloud proved ready to take on the emerging
demands of our government, university, financial services,
enterprise and service provider customers,” said Synacor SVP Marcus
Teo. “Our track record for solid innovation and continued growth is
a testament to our ability to address the latest market challenges
and opportunities, especially as premium collaboration capabilities
have emerged as critical while businesses around the world speed
their digital transformation and shift to a distributed
workforce.”
Among the hundreds of customers that engaged with Synacor during
Q1 are Directorate of Market Surveillance in Vietnam, PT Bank
Pembangunan Daerah Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta (BPD DIY) in
Indonesia, and National Institute for Medical Research (NIMR) in
Tanzania.
“Our user base has been using the basic functionalities of
Zimbra for a while and were happy when we decided to add new Zimbra
capabilities, such as the delegated admin rights, more effective
storage management, real-time backup to avoid data loss, and
finally, mobility. Zimbra is a feature-rich solution we're glad to
have,” says Walid Najjar, Head of Network and Security department
at Centre Informatique du Ministère de Santé in Tunisia (IT Centre
of the Ministry of Health in Tunisia).
Zimbra’s uptake among an expanding global customer roster
continues to validate its heightened profile as a proven
enterprise-grade collaboration platform delivering security,
privacy and data sovereignty, while supporting complex
environments, remote worker demands and a range of governmental
policy protocols.
