press@4psa.com — 2018-03-12T00:00:00-05:00

There will be 100 trillion instant messages and 293.6 billion emails sent world-wide by the end of 2019. Gartner estimates that the Unified Communications market will grow to $42.4 billion by 2019. However, market research fails to account for the huge business enabled by messaging technology. From payments to personal IDs, the tiny instant message becomes an universal carrier run in ways nobody had even imagined five years ago. Bots are a strong part of the game too. In fact, a lot of messages are not sent by people anymore.

4PSA Adds Security Feedback to VoipNow Mobile 2.0

press@4psa.com — 2015-07-15T00:00:00-05:00

Orlando, Florida - July 15, 2015 - 4PSA announced today the launch of VoipNow Mobile 2.0, a major new version of the enterprise PBX VoipNow mobile client. VoipNow Mobile is designed for companies of all sizes who want to increase employee mobility while not sacrificing security.

The new version adds support for video calls, high-definition audio and security feedback features. "While many people have become aware about the value of encryption when using HTTP based services, not the same can be said about phone calls. This is dangerous because many phone calls made using the Internet are vulnerable to eavesdropping. VoipNow Mobile provides visual real-time information about the security of each call and companies can restrict the completion of calls that are not properly encrypted and cryptographically authenticated." stated Elena Carstoiu, 4PSA's COO.

Video calls are also encrypted and users will enjoy a good quality even over 3G networks. The new version is further optimized to provide an exceptional good audio quality on poor wireless networks. In testing conditions, the voice quality was not substantially degraded on networks that experienced up to 30% packet loss.

VoipNow Mobile is a BYOD solution that allows organizations to increase employee productivity with less spending on infrastructure. "There are no more phone devices to buy, install, configure, manage and monitor. The user should download the application on his smartphone, provide his credentials and the phone is ready to use. It is not necessary to make complicated and error-prone configurations, everything is done automatically. No user training is required.", also added Ms. Carstoiu.

Service providers can start offering VoipNow Mobile immediately by joining the Service Provider program. Carriers can also opt for a white label solution. End-users can download VoipNow Mobile for free from the Apple Store and do the setup on their own in less than 3 minutes, without any training or documentation.

4PSA Celebrates 9 Years of Cloud Communications

press@4psa.com — 2015-06-03T00:00:00-05:00

Orlando, Florida - June 3, 2015 - 4PSA has announced today the release of VoipNow 3.6 and marks the 9th anniversary of the cloud communications platform.

VoipNow was released in 2006 with the vision that software can do a much better job for business communications than any proprietary hardware device. VoipNow started by replacing the PBX used by companies with an Internet-based communication system that reduced telephony cost, could be accessed from anywhere and on any device, and was able to grow along with the business needs. Over the years, VoipNow has evolved into a fully-featured Unified Communications platform that keeps improving the way businesses communicate.

Nine years later, over 250k businesses rely on VoipNow to communicate internally and with their customers. And they do it quite extensively, as several hundred million minutes of voice calls are handled by VoipNow systems across the globe every month. "We are extremely proud of our partners that made everything possible. The fact that VoipNow is being offered in hundreds of different scenarios like private mobility, hosted PBX, banking, hotels, call center, wholesale, and as a communication enabler for apps is the result of our partners' work in more than 50 countries," said Elena Carstoiu, 4PSA's co-founder and COO. "Every time we meet face-to-face with partners, like we have this week at the 4PSA Partners Meetup in Madrid, we are impressed by the value that service providers create for their customers, Ms. Carstoiu added.

VoipNow 3.6 is the first result of a new product management policy that accelerates the release cycle and simplifies the upgrade procedures. It comes with over 60 improvements and bug fixes that include better support for third-party applications, simplified call parking management, and new GitHub based repositories for API code examples and libraries.

VoipNow has received numerous industry awards and distinctions: the Product of the Year Award granted by INTERNET TELEPHONY for five times in a row, the 2014 Excellence Award presented by Unified Communications Magazine, the Top 3 Call Center Software Solutions in 2014 nomination given by MyVoipProvider.

VoipNow is available as software download, as well as VoipNow Cloud OnDemand, the private cloud solution for service providers who want to make a rapid start in cloud communications. For more information on VoipNow, click here.

4PSA Launches VoipNow 3.5 with Support for WebRTC, Big Data, Search and Analytics

press@4psa.com — 2015-04-22T00:00:00-05:00

Orlando, Florida - April 22, 2015 - 4PSA announced today the general availability of VoipNow 3.5, the award-winning Unified Communications platform for service providers. The new version of the UC platform used by more than 10,000 providers worldwide supports the new 4PSA initiatives in the end-user space, VoipNow Mobile and Hubgets.

VoipNow 3.5 comes with a Big data, search and analytics engine that can index virtually any information. The system is able to index real-time communication events in order to provide insightful information for both service providers and end-users. "The Internet is changing the way companies stay in touch with their customers and partners. At the same time, employees face many challenges in order to keep pace with the increasing number of communication channels and the information flood. VoipNow 3.5 is a core component in our strategy to simplify real-time communication and collaboration. While impressive from the technical perspective - VoipNow 3.5 implied more than 10k commits and includes over 300 new features, the product is also an important milestone in our product release strategy, as it opens the path for a short release cycle. Basically, starting May we are going to have a new VoipNow version every month," said 4PSA's CEO Bogdan Carstoiu.

The new version makes audio/voice telephony accessible to compatible browsers using WebRTC over SIP. "It's frustrating to see that WebRTC gets relatively low traction, although it can dramatically change the telecom industry for the better. Its immense potential is surrounded by politics, but we strongly believe that it's impossible to fight progress. That's why in VoipNow 3.5 WebRTC is not a technology exercise, but a production solution that allows the deployment of a fully-featured enterprise phone in the browser, with audio and video support. With WebRTC and SIP, we take the best from both worlds, and link the browser to the carrier's telephony network," Mr. Carstoiu added.

VoipNow 3.5 also improves the privacy of audio/video communication by simplifying the encryption setup and supporting a wider range of encryption standards. In fact, in order to give encryption a boost, 4PSA is determined to make the setup of non-encrypted calls more difficult. Service providers will also benefit from other security improvements such as SELinux support, built-in firewall, and better password strength management.

Other significant improvements in the new release target voice quality, user experience, system management and timely processing of resource-consuming tasks. VoipNow 3.5 brings support for new audio codecs, most notably the IETF Opus with FEC, which allows very good voice quality, even on poor wireless networks. VP8 video codec is also supported.

VoipNow enables service providers to offer cloud communication services to SMBs, medium and large organizations. The platform is designed for building high-performance cloud services - it comes with rapid set-up and deployment, automated provisioning for customers, integrated charging and billing engine, and competitive pay-as-you-grow pricing.

4PSA Introduces VoipNow Mobile, the iOS App for VoipNow Users

press@4psa.com — 2015-02-03T00:00:00-05:00

Orlando, Florida - February 3, 2015 - 4PSA announced today the launch of VoipNow Mobile - a mobile client for iOS, designed to integrate natively with its award-winning VoipNow Platform. VoipNow Mobile allows service providers to enable business BYOD that replaces traditional desktop office phones.

VoipNow is a Unified Communications platform designed for service providers and businesses in need of advanced telephony, video, presence, instant messaging, and mobility. VoipNow Mobile enables users to enjoy the full experience of their office phone on their iPhones and iPads.

"By 2015, the world's mobile workforce is estimated to reach 1.3 billion, representing 37.2% of the entire workforce, according to IDC. VoipNow Mobile enables our partners to offer their customers secure and efficient business voice communications. The app is intended to fully replace desktop IP phones that increase service costs for service providers and IT departments and provide poor user experience to end-users," stated Bogdan Carstoiu, 4PSA's CEO. VoipNow Mobile reduces implementation, management, and monitoring costs.

End-users can set up VoipNow Mobile on their own in less than 3 minutes, without any training or documentation. Using the app is straightforward and integrates with the mobile phone ecosystem. The app uses advanced scheduling mechanisms to reduce battery consumption, and the TLS protocol guarantees communication integrity and privacy. "VoipNow Mobile is resilient to network changes. While the app obviously has no control over the network preferred by the mobile OS, in most situations the call is not lost when such an event occurs. It provides perfect voice quality even on 2.5G mobile networks," Mr. Carstoiu added.

Ultimately, VoipNow Mobile is about providing a better, familiar experience to end-users, while making IT departments feel comfortable and service providers able to rapidly deploy communication and collaboration with no capital investments. It's about no legacy hardware glued to the desk.

Service providers can start offering VoipNow Mobile immediately by joining the Service Provider program. Carriers can also opt for a white label solution. End-users can download VoipNow Mobile for free from the Apple Store.

4PSA sustine Hour of Code Romania

press@4psa.com — 2014-12-09T00:00:00-05:00

Bucuresti, 9 decembrie 2014 - 4PSA, lider tehnologic in solutii software pentru comunicatii in cloud, participa la cea de-a 2-a editie a evenimentului global Hour of Code. Compania organizeaza in saptamana 8-14 decembrie un curs interactiv de programare pentru elevii din clasele a III-a si a IV-a din Scoala Generala Nr. 150 "Sf. Elefterie" din Bucuresti.

Hour of Code (Ora de Programare) este un eveniment international care isi propune sa starneasca si sa creasca interesul copiilor, dar si al adultilor pentru diverse limbaje de programare, accentuand aplicabilitatea acestora in viata de zi cu zi. In saptamana evenimentului, institutii publice si companii din domeniul IT vor sustine gratuit lectii introductive de programare atat online, cat si in salile de clasa. Evenimentul se desfasoara in peste 180 de tari si numara zeci de milioane de participanti.

"Copiii care se afla acum in scoala primara vor trai intr-o societate total diferita de cea de astazi. Nimeni nu stie daca va fi mai buna, dar cu siguranta va fi super-informatizata. Programarea, din ce in ce mai accesibila publicului larg datorita noilor limbaje simple si intuitive, va fi indispensabila dezvoltarii sociale. Din pacate, scoala aloca prea putine resurse pentru dezvoltarea acestei abilitati. Unii parinti se bucura observand atractia copilului pentru tehnica de calcul, altii incearca sa-l fereasca de contactul cu notebookul, tableta sau smartphone-ul. Teama este intr-adevar justificata, insa programarea este singura modalitate prin care copilul poate invata de mic sa utilizeze si sa domine calculatorul. Fara programare, copilul devine de cele mai multe ori sclavul tehnologiei, cu repercusiuni importante in dezvoltarea sa pe toate planurile." afirma Bogdan Carstoiu, CEO-ul 4PSA.

"Copii se indragostesc foarte rapid de programare, deoarece este ca un joc cu variante infinite. Chiar daca Hour of Code este o picatura intr-un ocean, speram ca societatea sa inteleaga importanta programarii si sa o puna pe acelasi nivel cu scrisul." a adaugat domnul Carstoiu.

4PSA a acordat dintotdeauna importanta educatiei, sustinand initiative si proiecte educative in sprijinul comunitatii si al generatiilor tinere. De 6 ani, compania ofera pozitii de internship studentilor de la Universitatea Politehnica Bucuresti si de la Universitatea de Matematica si Informatica Bucuresti, prin intermediul programului Stagii pe Bune. De asemenea, in vara acestui an, 4PSA a participat la evenimentul Rails Girls Bucharest, parte a miscarii globale Rails Girls.

Compania urmareste cu interes acest tip de initiative si continua sa se implice activ in educatia tinerilor. Mai multe informatii despre ultimele noutati, dar si initiativele trecute pot fi gasite pe blogul companiei.

4PSA VoipNow Changing Cloud Communications for 8 Years

press@4psa.com — 2014-05-29T00:00:00-05:00

Orlando, Florida - May 29, 2014 - 4PSA, a technology leader in cloud communications software, announced today that VoipNow, its cloud communications platform for service providers and businesses around the world, turns eight on May 30th.

"It gives us great pleasure to celebrate VoipNow's eighth birthday together with more than 10,000 partners that have chosen it as their preferred platform for delivering enterprise telephony, video, presence, conferencing, messaging, contact center functionality and mobility to businesses worldwide. Since we launched VoipNow in 2006, a lot has changed in the field of IP-based communications, and the role that communications play in business. We pride ourselves on our platform being part of this evolution," stated Elena Carstoiu, 4PSA COO.

VoipNow was launched as one of the first communications platform for service providers in the world, allowing them to offer SMBs enterprise-grade PBX services, quickly, and efficiently. From the start, VoipNow had multitenancy built in to allow multiple levels of access, usage, and permissions. In 2009, VoipNow transitioned from a hosted PBX and VoIP wholesale platform to a full Unified Communications platform. In the next year, business automation was added, which enabled providers to define service plans, build their online store and customer portal, automatically provision services, manage ordering, invoicing and payment processes.

VoipNow was among the first platforms built for the cloud, thus anticipating the size and importance that cloud-based services would take. It is estimated that the UCaaS market will grow to $23.34 billion by 2019 from the $13.10 billion anticipated for 2014. Therefore, betting on the cloud that early pays off. Back in 2012, VoipNow underwent its most important upgrade. The VoipNow Service Provider Edition brought along a whole new concept and design, with a strong impact on infrastructure, customer service, and automation. Rebuilt on a distributed architecture, with multiple roles split on as many hardware nodes as needed, VoipNow became more scalable, yet easier to maintain than ever; deployment became almost instant, downtime was eliminated. The platform also featured a new API as well as Apps support, which increased customer flexibility. As for the automation tools previously bundled with another 4PSA product, VoipNow Automation, they were now added to the platform at no additional cost.

VoipNow is currently at version 3.0.5. It is offered both as software download, as well as VoipNow Cloud OnDemand, the private cloud solution that allows providers to start delivering Unified Communications services in no time. "VoipNow Cloud OnDemand provides a blazing fast, automated deployment and is bundled with support from our Professional Services team for rapid configuration and migration from legacy solutions. Additionally, our partners are free to choose the SIP Trunking and DID providers. So, for service providers in search of a rapid start in cloud communications, VoipNow Cloud OnDemand is the best way to go," Ms. Carstoiu also added.

Along the years, VoipNow won many industry awards, namely four times in a row the Product of the Year Award granted by INTERNET TELEPHONY, Product of the Year Award presented by Unified Communications Magazine and was acknowledged as one of Top 3 call center software solutions in 2014 by MyVoipProvider.

Orlando, Florida - May 20, 2014 - 4PSA, a technology leader in cloud communications software, has been improving the way people communicate for the past 10 years.

The product portfolio is now richer in feature descriptions, technical details, and usage benefits. "This is more than just a face-lift. We want our customers and partners to have a better feel of our products, from the click of the mouse. And so, we tried to make what we do easy to understand and fun to use.

On the second day at WHD.global 2014, our CEO, Bogdan Carstoiu will be holding a presentation on how SaaS will affect service providers in the future.

"As a part of Cloud, SaaS looks like just another hot opportunity for brick-and-mortar service providers. However, most software vendors that release a hot app prefer to reach the end-users directly. While there are still many commoditized SaaS that bring decent margins, on medium and long term, this new wave of highly specialized service providers poses a significant threat. Hands-on example: WhatsApp. Users love it, providers hate it, everyone speaks about it ever since it was purchased by Facebook. How can you fight against a successful app? Even more, how can you win against a free app?"

4PSA Survey Reveals that Service Providers Find Opportunity in SaaS

press@4psa.com — 2014-03-27T00:00:00-05:00

Seven in ten Communications Service Providers plan on selling SaaS somewhere in the next 24 months

Orlando, Florida - March 27, 2014 - According to a recent survey conducted by UC software company 4PSA, nearly seven in ten (68%) communications service providers plan on selling SaaS somewhere in the next 24 months. The survey also concludes that 55% of service providers involved in the study feel the anxiety of competition from software vendors, on the Software as a Service (SaaS) enterprise market. The survey has been commissioned as part of a research study that will be discussed at WHD.global, the largest hosting event worldwide, in Rust, Germany on April 1-3, 2014.

Bogdan Carstoiu, 4PSA's CEO, will talk about the competition between service providers and software companies and the potential solutions to create a win-win situation. "What data shows us is that, although service providers need software companies to create innovative services for them to sell, they are very frustrated about direct competition. On the other hand, we know that most software vendors believe that developing solely for service providers limits their perspectives," said Bogdan Carstoiu.

There are currently 10,000 SaaS vendors in the world today (according to GetApp) on a $22.1 billion market by 2015 (according to the latest Gartner reports). "As a part of Cloud, SaaS looks like just another hot opportunity for brick-and-mortar service providers. However, most software vendors that release a hot app prefer to reach the end-users directly. While service providers can still rely on basic SaaS that brings decent margins, on medium and long term, this new wave of highly specialized service providers poses a significant threat. But there is a winning strategy," Bogdan Carstoiu added.

Bogdan will discuss more about this during a presentation at WHD.global, on April 2nd. For more information about UC-as-a-Service, you can find 4PSA at Booth C10.

press@4psa.com — 2013-04-01T00:00:00-05:00

Orlando, Florida - April 1, 2013 4PSA, the leading provider of Unified Communications software for the Cloud has announced today the release of TouchMeNow, a revolutionary solution that bundles software and hardware to deliver a previously unimaginable communication experience. The solution is available in two custom-tailored editions: Call Center Edition and Home Alone Edition.

Going far beyond the feature set of any other software platform, TouchMeNow introduces a brand new element to Unified Communications: touch. This feature is made possible with the help of haptic technology and the dedicated plug & play hardware component, named Comfy Chair.

"Comfy Chair is so much more than a regular chair! It has support for a wide variety of human touches like hug, pet, spank, slap, tickle, handshake, and massage. Other touches can be developed through our open API and added to the mix, providing users with an endless list of interaction possibilities. Body temperature, mood detecting sensors and Augmented Reality glasses for advanced communication options further boost the experience," said Elena Carstoiu, VP of Sales at 4PSA.

The advanced TouchMeNow Call Center Edition was developed for service providers that offer advanced services to a wide array of customers. By using this edition, service providers can deliver TUC services hosted in the Cloud or directly on customers' premises. "We've given a lot of thought to potential implementations. We added private/public conference rooms with 2, 3 or multiple member room support for call centers. For adult services, it was imperative that we also include an offensive language suggest list and a predictive behavior alert system to decrease the learning curve needed for newly hired agents.", Ms Carstoiu also added.

Finally, the user-centric Home Alone Edition was designed for service providers that target residential users. It offers multiple competitive features that help end-users maximize the special moments when they're home alone: Ultra stealth mode, Gesture screen saver activation, Spouse/parent alert as well as hands-free communication for extra convenience.

TouchMeNow Call Center Edition and Home Alone Edition are both compatible out-of-the-box with Comfy Chair. A wide variety of gloves for dedicated types of touch, from velvet-soft to hardcore boxing gloves can be purchased separately for Comfy Chair.

VoipNow SPE Sets New Unified Communications Standards for Service Providers

press@4psa.com — 2012-12-13T00:00:00-05:00

ORLANDO, FL - December 13, 2012 - 4PSA, the leading provider of Unified Communications software for the cloud, has announced today the release of VoipNow Service Provider Edition. The new edition, abbreviated SPE, is based on a new, third-generation platform that raises the bar in service management and customer innovation.

VoipNow SPE replaces the award-winning VoipNow Professional line and is part of 4PSA's strategy to integrate all tools service providers and carriers need in an easy to use, feature rich, and affordable platform.

The new software is capable to run distributed, across multiple computing nodes that can be provisioned in a public or private cloud infrastructure, but also includes the web tools that administrators need in order to manage such deployments. The cost of setting up and supporting environments ready to serve millions of customers is therefore dramatically reduced.

"Throughout the development of VoipNow SPE, a lot of effort has been invested into identifying all the elements that would make our customers more successful and efficient. We focused on three main areas: infrastructure, customer service, and automation. On the infrastructure side, we included the Cloud Manager that provides assistance in distributed deployments, we addressed the customer flexibility with a new API and Apps support, and we included all automation tools previously bundled with a different product (VoipNow Automation) in VoipNow SPE, at no additional cost", said Bogdan Carstoiu, 4PSA's CEO.

The new API, called UnifiedAPI, is a new generation REST and Web Sockets capable API that allows app developers to interface with the communication facilities exposed by VoipNow SPE. It includes app management, which features authentication, authorization, and resource access. "We realized that it is not enough to build a modern API based on open standards and consistent across all services. The most important thing is that UnifiedAPI allows developers to access communication channels from their applications in minutes. Are you developing a CRM? Do you want it to offer enterprise level phone support? Just add a few lines of code!", Mr. Carstoiu added.

The new edition comes with more than 100 new features, such as the innovative extension virtualization expanding traditional enterprise mobility patterns, out-of-the-box Microsoft Lync integration, support for Amazon S3 storage, intelligent call queues etc. The Automation functionality included in VoipNow SPE covers the customer business processes such as order management, billing, payments. VoipNow's real-time, multi-level, reseller friendly charging engine is an important functionality for service providers who want to optimize the cost of phone services for their customers.

More details regarding the product are available on our website. 4PSA also published an infographic that covers some product development internals.

4PSA Enhances VoIP Suite with Cloud Telephony Service

press@4psa.com — 2011-10-11T00:00:00-05:00
Orlando, Florida - October 11, 2011 - 4PSA, a technology leader in Cloud Communication Software, known for its leading-edge VoipNow® Unified Communications platform, has announced today the public availability of Cloud Telephony, the flexible, next-generation SIP trunking service that can be provisioned within minutes.

The new service delivers access to the telephony network using the SIP protocol and features unlimited concurrent incoming and outgoing calls. Moreover, it is possible to choose local phone numbers in over 30 countries around the world with best rates for domestic and international calls. Using VoIP technologies and the Cloud Telephony service, it is not necessary to install physical phone lines and incoming calls are always free.

"The Cloud Telephony solution is designed to deliver great value to a wide variety of customers, from small businesses to enterprises and also service providers. We cover a wide range of expectations and requirements." said Mike Ross, 4PSA's President. "With the addition of Cloud Telephony to our VoipNow® Cloud Instance and Unified Communications suite, the go-to-market time for these services has been greatly reduced." Mr. Ross also stated.

The new service is part of 4PSA's strategy to bring the cloud flexibility to resources that traditionally required complicated provisioning processes. Cloud Telephony follows cloud Unified Communications and cloud software licensing as a way to simplify the deployment of traditional telephony services.

Cloud Telephony can be used with any communication system that implements a VoIP SIP interface. When paired with VoipNow® Cloud Instance that already offers software, infrastructure and support, it is a complete solution for service providers so that they can start delivering services to their customers immediately, and also for businesses that are looking for a turn-key Unified Communications solution.

"Some customers prefer to host VoipNow® on their own infrastructure and choose their favorite carriers. VoipNow Professional is already the optimal solution for these customers with its comprehensive set of features, its flexibility and ability to scale. The new Cloud Telephony helps these installations too because it provides additional carrier services that reduce costs and improve reliability." added Mr. Ross.

4PSA's Cloud Telephony is available in three packages - Starter, Business and Service Provider, which offer free credit every month and require no commitments. More information and the list of rates can be found here.

4PSA Simplifies Provisioning and Billing for Business Partners

press@4psa.com — 2011-07-28T00:00:00-05:00
Orlando, Florida - July 28, 2011 - 4PSA, a leading-edge Cloud Computing software development company, has announced today the release of Business Zone API, a REST based web service that 4PSA's commercial partners can use to conveniently access and automatically provision cloud services and software licenses without any human intervention.

By using a combination of REST HTTP requests and XML/JSON answers, commercial partners can retrieve information about 4PSA's products and services, order new services or software licenses, as well as upgrade or terminate existing services. Billing processes are integrated with provisioning to simplify the partner's experience.

"With Business Zone API, we want our partners to be able to automate operations that so far required human input or processing. This new service boosts the integration of their systems with our own back-end facilities and accelerates the deployment of Cloud services," said Elena Carstoiu, 4PSA's VP of Sales and Marketing.

Coupled with the Cloud software licensing 4PSA introduced in February 2011, the new REST API stands out as a powerful tool for partner service providers because it allows them to easily provision flexible, pay-as-you-grow software licenses. With Business Zone API, it is possible to provision and manage 4PSA's products and services, as well as other products from 4PSA's business partners such as Parallels.

"We are enabling our partners to directly integrate 4PSA products and services into their portfolio and benefit from our automated systems. By using the Business Zone API, service providers can ensure a fully automated provisioning process even if it relies on a 4PSA resource such as a software license. The end-customer experience is also dramatically improved because the waiting time is reduced to a large extent," Ms. Carstoiu also added.

4PSA commercial partners can have this service activated on request. Documentation on the new Business Zone API is available in the 4PSA Developers Zone here.

VoipNow?s unrivaled scaling capabilities, high-performance and ability to address real-market needs has earned the product major awards from the industry, i.e. the Unified Communications Magazine's 2010 Product of the Year Award and the INTERNET TELEPHONY Magazine's Thirteenth Annual Product of the Year Award.

"We have made it our goal to constantly improve our solution to address the real needs of our customers. We will continue to raise the bar with the upcoming developments on the VoipNow Platform that will dramatically improve the way people communicate, work and have fun using the 'infinite' cloud resources," Mr. Carstoiu also added.

4PSA Brings Carriers New Business Opportunities

press@4psa.com — 2011-05-11T00:00:00-05:00
Orlando Florida - May 12, 2011 - 4PSA, a leading-edge Cloud Computing software development company, has recently announced the revamping of its Certified Trunk Provider Program, a partnership program through which SIP Providers can attest the compatibility between their SIP trunking solutions and 4PSA's award-winning VoipNow Unified Communications Platform.

4PSA Certified Trunk Providers will have their services showcased directly in the VoipNow web interface through provider templates. These templates simplify SIP channel configuration, are automatically pushed to all VoipNow installations in real-time and they are easily accessible to VoipNow administrators.

"Selecting a reliable carrier and configuring SIP channels is a crucial task for service providers. With the introduction of the service provider templates in VoipNow 2.5.1, our customers can easily choose from the certified carriers available and have everything set up in just a matter of minutes," said Elena Carstoiu, 4PSA's VP of Sales and Marketing.

All certified providers undergo a series of compatibility and reliability tests to ensure that they are able to deliver the highest availability and call quality. Once they have obtained their certification, they become the top choice for SIP trunking services for VoipNow customers. "It's a win-win situation: the provisioning of new accounts becomes a heartbeat job for service providers, while our certified partners gain new business opportunities by having their services directly highlighted in VoipNow. So, if you provide SIP termination, origination or DIDs anywhere in the world, come and join 4PSA's Certified Trunk Program," Ms. Carstoiu also added.

Currently, there are two levels of certification for Trunk Providers: free Silver and advanced Gold. The Gold level of certification includes digitally signed SIP Trunking templates that can be safely distributed over the Internet, as well as the preferential positioning of the templates in the VoipNow interface.

4PSA is continuously searching for SIP providers that are able to deliver the best experience to its customers. Companies interested in applying for this program can find more details here.

4PSA Provides Unified Communications to Academic Institutions

press@4psa.com — 2011-04-21T00:00:00-05:00
Orlando Florida - April 21, 2011 - 4PSA, a leading-edge Cloud Computing software development company has announced today the availability of an all new licensing program for its award-winning Unified Communications solution, VoipNow Professional. The brand new Academic Licensing plan was designed to help educational institutions replace their legacy communication methods with Unified Communications.

All types of cultural and educational organizations such as schools, universities, museums, libraries etc. can increase their efficiency and enhance their communication processes with VoipNow. "Unified Communications plays an essential role within the academic environment because it lowers the organization investments while saving time and effort. Regardless of how large the institution is, the benefits are the same for both tens of users and thousands of them," said Elena Carstoiu, 4PSA's VP of Sales and Marketing.

For example, in a university using a Unified Communications system, students can collaborate seamlessly and share information through voice, video, presence, and instant messaging. On the other hand, the administration staff is most likely to also use legacy communication options such as computer-integrated faxing. "VoipNow blends perfectly with the existing IT infrastructure allowing users to utilize their mobile phones or soft phones; as a result, the academic institution will no longer need to invest in purchasing additional hardware. From the provisioning perspective, assigning an UC extension to a new student is as easy as offering an email address and can be done automatically via the student provisioning system," Ms. Carstoiu also noted.

At the same time, through 4PSA's Non-profit Licensing program 4PSA provides free academic licenses for classroom-learning purposes. Furthermore, 4PSA offers free perpetual licensing to charities, non-profits, open-source projects and communities, as well as all organizations that work to make the world a better place without gaining profit. The special Academic Licensing is subject to approval by 4PSA. Organizations interested in submitting an application can find more details here.

4PSA to Add Human Feelings to Unified Communications

press@4psa.com — 2011-04-01T00:00:00-05:00

Eugene de Big sends his regards and wishes you all a wonderful April :)

Orlando Florida - April 1, 2011 - 4PSA, a leading-edge Cloud Computing software technology company, has redefined the laws of computer communication by adding human feelings to its VoipNow Unified Communications platform. The new flow is seamlessly read by a new hardware device called GroupTouch(tm) that is attached to the user's head and interacts with the PC using the USB port or with Android and iPhone using Blootooth.

"With the special, patent-pending GroupTouch device, VoipNow users can add their feelings and thoughts to the Unified Communications flow. Even though this is only the Beta version of GroupTouch, its accuracy ranges within 95% for basic human sentiments. Complex feelings such as love, hate, sexual desire are detected, and the device accuracy is currently around 50%. We are constantly improving these percentages, however progress is quite complicated without the community's help and due to the difficulties in simulating all the above feelings in a lab environment," said Eugene de Big, VP of Human Interfaces at 4PSA.

"We think this is a major breakthrough in the way people communicate. We have been using the new technology inside our company for the past six months and the results are unbelievable. People are so happy about the new communication methods that it's hard to convince them to go home. Of course, we also identified some drawbacks, one being that it's much harder to lie. That's why the final version of the software will incorporate several operation modes like privacy, act, and sincerity", added Mr. de Big.

This new technology is integrated into all real-time communication flows, for instance telephony and instant messaging. Traditional presence methods are also dramatically enriched by the GroupTouch as the user does not have to touch any device to broadcast status.

GroupTouch will be also available using the REST-based CallAPI, which means that developers can directly integrate it with third-party applications. "The CallAPI support is one of our first priorities. Just to give you a small example: Facebook's "What's on your mind?" status will display an accurate answer for the first time in history. Even more, just imagine what the world will look like with brain-wire speed tweets!" Mr. de Big also added.

This cutting-edge functionality will be incorporated in the next major version of the VoipNow Platform with no extra cost for end-users. The GroupTouch device MRSP price will be US $159 per user.

4PSA's VoipNow® Professional, the winner of the 2010 INTERNET TELEPHONY Product of the Year Award is a leading solution designed to deliver Unified Communications in the cloud. VoipNow Platform includes Professional, Automation, and Core - three separate components that allow service providers to automate the delivery of a wide range of IP communication services.

4PSA Introduces Flexible Unified Communications with VoipNow Cloud Instance

press@4psa.com — 2011-03-10T00:00:00-05:00
Orlando Fl - March 10, 2011 - 4PSA, a leading innovative Cloud Computing software development company has announced today the release of VoipNow Cloud Instance, a fully-featured and flexible turn-key solution that bundles high-performance infrastructure with the company's award-winning VoipNow® Unified Communications Platform.

VoipNow Cloud Instance is intended for service providers that choose to deploy Unified Communications and want to base their offering on services highly flexible from a financial and operational perspective. Compared to other UC cloud offerings on the market, this solution comes with many advantages due to the tight integration between hardware and software resources. From a customer's perspective, the main benefit is that the instance is private; it is not shared with any other entity. This means that the service provider has full access to all system parameters, down to the low-level settings.

"Our customers deploy VoipNow with many IaaS cloud services, Amazon EC2 being one of the most popular among them. At the same time, they can run VoipNow on their own hardware or on equipment leased from an infrastructure service provider. While all these options are widely used, we wanted to accelerate the process with a full solution that can be provisioned in minutes," said Bogdan Carstoiu, 4PSA's CEO.

VoipNow Cloud Instance comes at a very low cost due to the built-in technologies that scale the cloud instance resources dynamically with the number of customers provisioned by the service provider. "Another major advantage of VoipNow Cloud Instance is the scaling path. A cloud instance can grow from 0 to 10,000 Unified Communications customers without any downtime, which is very important for service providers. They are in charge of their instance and can choose the voice carriers they prefer. Furthermore, they have full control over the system through a range of web-based management tools", added Mr. Carstoiu.

VoipNow Cloud Instance services are available both in US and Europe. The service is provisioned in a couple of minutes and comes with all the necessary tools to provide Unified Communications. Customers can choose between two functionality levels: both with full Unified Communications feature set and, when selected, with VoipNow Automation. Automation allows service providers to reduce costs by streamlining provisioning, invoicing, and other important business operations.

Pricing for VoipNow Cloud Instance service starts at US $159 per month and includes support for up to 100 UC customers. Each additional customer is charged with a maximum of US $2.1/month. The service is backed up by a 99.95% up-time guarantee.

4PSA Unleashes Affordable Unified Communications for Small Organizations

press@4psa.com — 2011-03-01T00:00:00-05:00
Orlando Fl - March 1, 2011 - 4PSA, a leading innovative Cloud Computing software technology company, has announced today the introduction of a brand new affordable licensing program for the award-winning VoipNow® Platform. The new offer is part of the company's Green Commitment and it aims at helping small organizations take advantage of the fully-featured Unified Communications while reducing their carbon footprint.

The First Extensions License program promotes Unified Communications, a greener and more convenient alternative to traditional communication technologies. This new solution saves the day for small companies that haven't switched to Unified Communications due to the costs involved.

"The First Extensions License program provides full Unified Communications functionality for a very low cost. The whole idea behind this action is to demonstrate people how software can dramatically improve their communication experience, while reducing power consumption and travel expenses. VoipNow® has already been helping many organizations and we have just simplified the process for new comers." said Bogdan Carstoiu, 4PSA's CEO.

4PSA has also adopted the Green Commitment initiative, a set of rules and actions tailored to support the natural environment. "As part of our continuous improvement strategy, we've decided that we can get more actively involved in reducing carbon emissions. While our cloud enabled software saves energy resources, we use the money raised from the First Extensions License program to fund organizations that plant trees and help the ecosystem.", Mr. Carstoiu also added.

VoipNow® First Extensions License program offers one fully-featured 10-extension license to any organization. The price of the license is US $25, which is 12 times less than the regular license price. Only one First Extensions License can be purchased per individual or company.

4PSA Introduces Cloud Licensing for Software

press@4psa.com — 2011-02-23T00:00:00-05:00
Orlando Fl - February 23, 2011 - 4PSA, a leading innovative Cloud Computing software technology company, well-known for its award-winning VoipNow® Unified Communications solution, has announced today the availability of Cloud Licensing, a licensing methodology that brings cloud computing flexibility and scalability to software licensing.

The new licensing methodology follows the investments made by the company in back-end automation and customer facilities. "With Cloud Licensing, we aim to simplify all processes related to software licensing, from infrastructure planning to support. It uses the core principles of cloud computing and inherits its advantages such as simplified provisioning, low and predictable costs, and demand based auto-scaling. For service providers this means no upfront licensing costs, transparent operating terms, and agile service development", stated Bogdan Carstoiu, 4PSA's CEO.

Customers can choose between two levels of Cloud Licensing flexibility, based on the software deployment target. The first level, called Basic Cloud Licensing, was designed for smaller installations, includes predefined resources, and comes at fixed subscription costs. It is recommended that service providers bundle this licensing level with infrastructure services for SMB end-users. When more resources than the predefined limits are required, the license can be upgraded to the next level. Technical support is included and customers can use all software features.

The second level, Full Cloud Licensing, provides unlimited scalability and it is designed for larger installations. Technical support comes with the software license and costs are based on provisioned resources. Thanks to the transparent and real-time resource scaling, the service provider pays only for the actual usage. Due to the automation tools available to 4PSA customers, software licensing for both levels can be provisioned and managed in only a matter of seconds. During the lifecycle of the license all processes are automated.

4PSA currently offers Cloud Licensing for VoipNow® Professional, a leading UC software delivering Unified Communications for companies of all sizes, VoipNow® Automation, a business and operations solution that enables service providers to automate the most important business flows, and DNS Manager, multitenant software automation designed to deliver advanced DNS hosting. All the other products in 4PSA's portfolio will be getting the Cloud Licensing support by the end of 2011.

4PSA Introduces New Online Presence and Global Branding

press@4psa.com — 2011-02-14T00:00:00-05:00
Orlando Fl, February 14, 2011 - 4PSA, the developer of multiple software solutions for cloud computing, best known for its leading edge VoipNow Cloud Computing Unified Communications solution, has announced today the availability of a new online presence, as well as of back-end automation and global branding solutions that emphasize both the company culture and the marketing strategy.

The two dominant colors of the 4PSA brand are now green and orange and they reflect 4PSA's vibrant energy and commitment to the core values of life. The company translates these concepts in its innovative software products that optimize the use of vital resources through cloud computing and allow people to stay in touch and collaborate with the help of Unified Communications.

The company website available at www.4psa.com has been redesigned, optimized, and simplified. Visitors can now locate information even more easily, while customers can log in to powerful portals that allow them to manage their business and technical relationship with 4PSA. The website is also leveraging the automation technologies developed by the company to provide customers with an enhanced experience.

"Thanks to our latest back-end development, we have streamlined and optimized many internal flows and resources that normally required human intervention or monitoring. While it might not be obvious, one the most important things we wanted to improve is customers' ability to locate the information relevant to their business. Usually, this issue is not covered by software automation products because they gather most of their intelligence from the provider's perspective. We believe that focusing on the customer is critical for business success," stated Bogdan Carstoiu, 4PSA's CEO.

The new management portals available for 4PSA customers and partners are called Business Zone and Support Zone. "One of the most important things we've learned while studying our customers' behavior is that business people have different requirements than technical people and what's obvious for them might not be so obvious for the others and vice-versa. That's why we have designed a portal where business people can manage software licensing, billing information, orders, invoices, provisioning etc. and another portal where technical people can get in touch with our support engineers, access the Knowledge Base and technical documentation, review the history of the incidents they came across with us etc. These two portals are different in design and flow." Mr. Carstoiu added.

While the two portals, Business Zone and Support Zone, vary in form and concept, they can be managed from a single point by the customer representative. Together with the back-end systems, they will allow the company to launch new services in the months to come.

4PSA VoipNow 2.5.1 Simplifies Equipment Provisioning and Creates Opportunities for Wholesale Carriers

press@4psa.com — 2011-01-31T00:00:00-05:00
Orlando Fl - January 31, 2011 - 4PSA, the developer of the leading edge VoipNow Cloud Computing Unified Communications software suite has announced today a new release of the award-winning VoipNow Professional software. The latest version introduces a redesigned provisioning module that simplifies equipment provisioning, a new functionality marketed as Service Provider Template for the use of VoipNow partners, as well as many other improvements that enable service providers to increase the quality of their services and offer more functionality to their customers.

"The new release of VoipNow Professional comes with a completely redesigned provisioning system aiming to ease and simplify equipment provisioning to end-users, which is usually a time-consuming and difficult to handle job. Managing phone devices can now be done with greater flexibility because the module comes with delegated administration, new possibilities to control provisioning templates, and an open format that allows service providers to rapidly add their own equipment that might not be supported by VoipNow", said 4PSA's CEO Bogdan Carstoiu.

Another important feature of VoipNow 2.5.1 is the Service Provider Template that creates new opportunities for many companies in the industry. With the help of such templates, wholesalers offering SIP trunking services can easily market their offer to service providers using VoipNow and help them with the technical setup of the SIP trunks.

Many service providers have trouble in selecting reliable wholesale carriers, especially on the global market. Thanks to these new facilities, carriers can present their offer to service providers using VoipNow and, at the same time, they can automate the SIP trunk setup process with predefined rules. Service Provider templates can be digitally signed to avoid tampering, which means that they can be safely distributed over the Internet.

"We are accompanying the Service Provider Template with a reshaped Certified SIP Trunking Provider program. Our partners will get their templates automatically pushed to all VoipNow installations in real-time. As certified providers go through a series of compatibility and reliability tests, they represent the first choice for SIP trunking services for VoipNow customers. We welcome any wholesale provider to join our program", Mr. Carstoiu added.

Incoming and outgoing call rules have been improved with new matching rules and actions. One particularly interesting functionality allows mobile devices on the public telephone network to act like internal PBX extensions during a call, without using native VoIP connectivity. Other improvements included in the new version feature integration with external MWI servers, call queue enhancements such as "Whisper mode" or call confirmation by call agents. Furthermore, CallAPI has also been enriched with new resources for developers.

Current customers with a valid update subscription can upgrade to VoipNow 2.5.1 free of charge in only a few minutes. The new version is also shipped with easy-to-use images for VMware, Parallels Virtuozzo or Amazon EC2 Cloud.

VoipNow is a software suite designed to simplify the deployment of Unified Communications services in the cloud. The suite includes Professional, Automation, and Core - three separate components that allow service providers to automate the delivery of a wide range of IP communication services.

4PSA Releases the New Version of OXtender for Parallels Plesk Panel 10

press@4psa.com — 2010-12-01T00:00:00-05:00
NUREMBERG, Germany and BUCHAREST, Romania, December 1, 2010 – 4PSA announces availability of the latest release of software that enables hosters and SaaS providers to replace Plesk Webmail in shared hosting environments with Open-Xchange business-class e-mail and groupware, which provides users with additional PIM (Personal Information Management) features at no extra cost, as well as options to move to full groupware and support for their mobile devices.

The software called 4PSA OXtender for Plesk is an extension developed and supported by 4PSA that facilitates the transition to the AJAX-based web interface from Open-Xchange. It offers users additional groupware functionality and enables hosters to add Open-Xchange to Parallels Plesk Server at a flat fee. It simplifies Open-Xchange deployment and significantly reduces set up time. Provisioning of Open-Xchange is fast and easy using the Plesk web interface. In addition, all changes made in Plesk by users such as password changes, mailbox renames and removals are automated by the connector.

New features and benefits of 4PSA OXtender for Plesk include:

Support for the recently released Parallels Plesk Panel 10

Improved manageability, including the ability to set up the Open-Xchange document storage size, language and timezone individually for different Plesk customers.

Improved administration, such as better logging and debugging facilities that allow administrators to spot issues even before they are noticed by users.

Better integration so that customers using dedicated servers powered by Parallels Plesk Panel can be connected to a shared Open-Xchange environment, which provides them with cost-effective and reliable e-mail and groupware.

"Open-Xchange offers a great, yet simple business model for hosters and service providers using Parallels Plesk Panel to deliver true business-class e-mail features, including groupware, social networks-enabled collaboration and mobile sync solutions," said Rafael Laguna, CEO of Open-Xchange. "Rich e-mail is a crucial step for service providers that want to build ARPU (average revenue per user) and enhance stickiness of their services."

"Parallels Plesk Panel 10 reduces the complexity involved with running a hosting business and provides hosting end users with access to a catalog of commercial and open source applications," said Bryan Goode begin_of_the_skype_highlighting     end_of_the_skype_highlighting begin_of_the_skype_highlighting     end_of_the_skype_highlighting, vice president and general manager for Parallels Marketplace. "Open-Xchange´s integration with Plesk is a quick and easy way for hosters to offer business-class e-mail."

"Replacing old webmail and offering feature-rich and collaborative e-mail for all existing e-mail accounts is a very cost-effective way for Plesk hosters and resellers to enter the fast-growing SaaS collaboration and messaging market with minimal risk and investment," said Bogdan Carstoiu, CEO of 4PSA. "4PSA OXtender for Plesk is the easiest way for hosters to remain competitive – without changing their existing e-mail infrastructure."

Open-Xchange is the only groupware specifically designed to meet the needs of SaaS providers. Open-Xchange will grow its number of users to more than 24 million people worldwide in 2010 – an increase of 60 percent. SaaS partners include 1&1 Internet - the #1 hosting company worldwide, Network Solutions - the #3 hosting company in the U.S., Versatel (Germany), Dotster (U. S.) and Hostpoint - the #1 hosting company in Switzerland.

Availability
4PSA OXtender for Plesk supports both shared hosting and dedicated hosting environments. It is compatible with Plesk 8.3 or later under Linux/Unix. The software license includes Open-Xchange Webmail, as well as maintenance subscription support. It can be purchased from 4PSA or Open-Xchange. For more information, please visit OXtender's page.

4PSA's VoipNow 2.5 Challenges Cloud Communications with Latest Enhancements

press@4psa.com — 2010-08-03T00:00:00-05:00
Orlando Fl - August 3, 2010 - 4PSA, the developer of the leading edge VoipNow® Cloud Computing Unified Communications software suite announced today the availability of a major update. This latest version introduces over 30 significant features to help service providers offer the optimal cloud service, automate operations and rapidly expand their business.

"With the release of VoipNow® 2.5 we have raised the bar on functionality, cloud integration, accessibility and performance, which simplified the life for service providers. The added array of improvements that made Unified Communications more comprehensive and at the same time easier to use will allow our partners to faster migrate customers to the cloud.", said Bogdan Carstoiu, 4PSA’s CEO.

CallAPI service available in VoipNow® 2.5 enables developers to integrate and add telephony functions to any software application. CallAPI is a REST based cloud service that starts calls, answers calls, puts calls on hold, parks/unparks existing calls, starts conferences, records calls, and much more. It also provides an innovative method to control the behavior of the IVRs in real-time from remote software. End-users can use CallAPI to connect telephony services to business solutions like Customer Support, CRMs, Ecommerce or other resources. CallAPI supports OAuth authentication allowing third party applications to connect securely to the system.

With the new OpenID authentication, users can link their VoipNow® account to any OpenID provider such as Google, Yahoo, WordPress, LiveJournal etc. and log in to the system using a single set of credentials. Service providers can also implement the OpenID protocol on-premises to improve the customers’ experience when dealing with multiple cloud services.

Also included in VoipNow® 2.5, there is a call statistics area that can be used to capture and report information about important telephony parameters like ASR, ACD, call failure causes, call distribution etc. These new call statistics improve troubleshooting and provide a quick view on system activities for management. Improvements to the conferencing functions make these services easily accessible to end-users. Call centers will benefit from the browser based agents’ administration and the ability to have agents in the public telephone network using regular phones.

"Automation is of key importance to service providers because it allows their business to scale and better serve their customers. 4PSA is introducing a number of new features that make it possible to build, sell and provision service bundles, to create add-ons for existing service plans, and automatically process recharges on prepaid billing. Many enhancements to the end-user customer portal have been made to give customers more control over their cloud subscriptions.", added Carstoiu.

Existing customers with a valid update subscription can upgrade to VoipNow® 2.5 for free in minutes. The new version is also shipped with easy to use images for VMware, Parallels Virtuozzo or Amazon Cloud.

press@4psa.com — 2010-06-07T00:00:00-05:00
Orlando Fl, June 7, 2010 - 4PSA, a leading edge Cloud Computing software technology company has announced a new program that will help carriers, ISPs and resellers as they begin offering hosted VoIP and Unified Communications services to their customers. The new Jump-Start Pricing Program removes one of the main risks facing ISPs with the pay-as-you-grow plan and the flat licensing option.

"The new Jump-Start program brings the flexibility of the cloud to the software tools used by providers to deliver services. In order to assist our customers and simplify their decision making we have built an affordable pricing and an incentives model that can be applied during their adoption phase of the VoipNow® Unified Communications and VoIP software. The Jump-Start licensing is a change from the way other vendors approach customers by giving the ISP the necessary time to ramp up their sales with a flat pricing approach. This is just another way we intend to prove our commitment to making their cloud telecom deployments successful," stated Bogdan Carstoiu, 4PSA’s CEO.

"The pay-as-you-grow model is the simplest and least expensive way for carriers or ISPs to manage their costs. Since VoipNow® provides unlimited scalability with the lowest cost per customer in the industry, service providers are able to be more competitive with better margins and can grow faster starting with their first customer," said Carstoiu. “An additional benefit of our Jump-Start pricing program is that it also makes migrating from an existing VoIP platform, with far fewer features and management capabilities, an easy decision”, Carstoiu also said.

VoipNow® is a software suite designed to simplify the deployment of Unified Communications services in the cloud. The suite includes Professional, Automation and Core, three separate components that allow service providers to automate the delivery of a wide range of IP communication services.

Complete details about how ISPs can qualify for Jump-Start pricing are available from the 4PSA sales department through email at sales@4psa.com or by calling +1.888.898.3082. A full description of the VoipNow® features can be found on our website at

4PSA Establishes SMART Trunk Provider Program for VoipNow ®

press@4psa.com — 2010-05-19T00:00:00-05:00
Orlando FL, May 19, 2010 - 4PSA, a leading edge Cloud Computing Software Technology company has established its new certification program for SIP providers that will designate them as trained and certified to be capable of delivering SIP trunks to meet the demands of businesses using VoipNow® Platform. This program named the "SMART Certification Program" for Scalable, Managed, And Reliable Trunking, indicates that the trunk provider has been tested and met the highest professional standard and possesses the necessary technical skill in this area.

"We want the customers that use our VoipNow® Unified Communications and VoIP software to fully enjoy the benefits that it offers, without being limited in any way by the connection to the public telephony network.”, stated Bogdan Carstoiu, 4PSA's CEO. “Although many of our customers have their own infrastructure, they have to work with abroad service providers in order to lower termination and origination costs. It is important for these businesses to know that they are working with competent companies that fully understand the critical areas of IP technology and how to deliver and maintain it to highest standard", Carstoiu said.

"We think that this program will also help recognize the expertise of our channel partners and the added value they bring in delivering high quality UC solutions to the enterprise. The program will make the SIP providers that are committed to delivering carrier class solutions easier to identify", Carstoiu also said.

Along with the SMART Certification comes an identifiable logo that indicates the provider has been tested and accredited to work with VoipNow®. Application for this program is available online at: www.4psa.com/trunkcertified and it is open for all SIP trunk providers worldwide.

4PSA Launched VoipNow Automation, the Operations and Business Automation Solution for Cloud Service Providers

press@4psa.com — 2010-03-03T00:00:00-05:00
March 3, 2010 - 4PSA launched VoipNow Automation, a business and operations automation software designed for deploying, managing and billing services in cloud infrastructures. With VoipNow Automation, providers can define service plans, build their online store and customer portal, automatically provision services, and manage ordering, invoicing and payment processes using the latest cloud technologies.

VoipNow Automation allows service providers to streamline critical business tasks like billing and account management, reduces costs and provides a solid foundation for growth. The platform is able to scale to a virtually unlimited number of customers using 4Grid and it is flexible enough to integrate with any type of cloud service using Cloud Blocks. The solution comes with an Open Source front-end that includes the online store and the portal where customers can manage personal information, subscriptions, orders, invoices and payments.

"Our main objective with VoipNow Automation is to help service providers reduce costs and serve more customers with fewer resources. Although we are first targeting the automation of our own Unified Communications software, VoipNow Automation is extensible by design. Service providers can use the same platform and build Cloud Blocks for any type of cloud service.

VoipNow Core allows Service Providers to build a carrier class VoIP infrastructure with minimal costs, while focusing on future scalability, redundancy, manageability and automation. The system integrates a powerful SIP server with full media control capabilities and media gateway to PSTN features using standard ISDN PRI PCI cards. Due to the cloud computing approach, the cost of implementation, operation and maintenance is dramatically reduced compared to legacy monolithic telecom equipments.

"VoipNow Core brings cloud to the telecom world. It has already been deployed in production with many customers who use VoipNow Professional for delivering hosted PBX services. These customers enjoy the flexibility and the ideas behind our Unified Communications software and want to build the core of their VoIP network using the same principles. With both solutions integrated in the new VoipNow Platform ecosystem, Service Providers can address different market opportunities while enjoying a platform that scales with the business." said Bogdan Carstoiu, Rack-Soft’s CEO.

These users will be able to access information in the web interface and over the phone in their local time. The new version also comes with improved CallerID handling, infrastructure centralized billing capabilities, as well as more detailed reporting.

“We have many customers that target the global market. It’s quite common to have clients from Europe, US and Australia on the same infrastructure. When users access the web interface, for example for checking call reports or voicemails, they expect to find there the local time on all records. They are usually not interested that the service is delivered using SaaS from an infrastructure located on another continent.”, said Bogdan Carstoiu, Rack-Soft’s CEO.

VoipNow 2.0.3 also introduces easy to setup SIP trunking features. With the new add-on, providers are able to offer SIP trunking services to customers having on premises PBX systems, making the first step to migrate them to a fully integrated hosted Unified Communications service.

Latest VoipNow version comes with the new Cloud Billing support, the single point, but still distributed infrastructure billing capabilities supported by upcoming Rack-Soft products. The new features automate billing in cloud environments and standardize it across multiple platforms.

4PSA VoipNow can be installed on standalone Linux x86 servers or on virtualized environments based on VMware or Virtuozzo. The product is also available in a free version, limited to ten phone extensions. Prices for the commercial version start from 299USD.

4PSA VoipNow 2.0.2 Boosts Performance, Profitability and User Experience

press@4psa.com — 2009-07-29T00:00:00-05:00
July 29, 2009 - Rack-Soft announced today the general availability of 4PSA VoipNow 2.0.2, a Unified Communications software system that delivers voice, video, presence, instant messaging and faxing services. Internet Telephony providers and web hosting providers use 4PSA VoipNow to offer feature rich communication services to SMB market.

4PSA VoipNow 2.0.2 introduces various improvements and new features like number portability, Amazon EC2 support, SIP server multi-network, SIP server behind NAT, server generated presence, as well as important performance optimizations. VoipNow can handle a higher number of concurrent calls and more calls per second with fewer resources spent.

"The VoipNow 2.0.2 number portability support is built around an API that allows the system to connect to any national number portability database. Charging the call based on the destination network gains importance as competition in telecom has increased and more customers migrate between providers.", said Bogdan Carstoiu, Rack-Soft’s CEO.

The new presence capabilities involve the server in keeping track of extensions’ status. VoipNow knows at any time what happens with extensions and is able to publish this information for interested parties. Extensions can also update their own status.

VoipNow provides SIP server behind NAT support to reduce costs for on premises installations. Cloud deployments are also important, that’s why VoipNow 2.0.2 fully supports Amazon EC2.", added Mr. Carstoiu.

4PSA VoipNow can be installed on standalone Linux x86 servers or on virtualized environments based on VMware or Virtuozzo. The product is also available in a free version, limited to ten phone extensions. Prices for the commercial version start from 299USD.

Rack-Soft Releases 4PSA VoipNow for Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2)

press@4psa.com — 2008-10-27T00:00:00-05:00
October 27, 2008 - Rack-Soft launched today 4PSA VoipNow for Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2). The new software image built, supported, and maintained by Rack-Soft allows companies to deploy VoipNow in minutes, taking advantage of the highly available, pay-as-you-grow Amazon cloud offer.

VoipNow is an Integrated Communications System designed to provide advanced PBX services, while maximizing the opportunities offered by SaaS. Companies deploying hosted PBX systems will save thousands every year on hardware, licensing and maintenance costs, without sacrificing any feature available with on premises systems. In most cases, SaaS providers deliver all services, but it is not uncommon for the company to manage the system hosted on the infrastructure they trust.

"The great advantage of the Amazon cloud is that you will have your application available very fast, without sacrificing availability, security or performance. The running costs and the possibility of sharing information with other systems on the Amazon platform are also important for companies. A common issue end-users face when choosing providers is trust. Amazon offers a high level of trust and their cloud computing initiative has a proven track record.", said Bogdan Carstoiu, Rack-Soft’s General Manager.

The new VoipNow Amazon Machine Image (AMI) is available for Amazon EC2 customers. In order to install a new machine with VoipNow, the user must only choose the VoipNow image from the list. Support is vital for hosted applications, so starting with 25th October 2008 Amazon EC2 is officially supported under all 4PSA support service levels.

"The current global economic situation helps SaaS adoption because companies must reduce upfront investments and increase their flexibility. We are committed to provide our software in the packaging formats that simplify deployment in clouds. Currently, VoipNow is also prepared for VMware and Virtuozzo and we consider any platform that makes sense for our customers.", added Bogdan Carstoiu.

Customers installing VoipNow in the Amazon infrastructure can choose between over 25 licensing and purchasing options. VoipNow prices start as low as 29USD/month for a subscription that includes technical support.

Rack-Soft Releases 4PSA Clean Server 4, the New Antivirus for Plesk Servers Based on 4Grid Technology

press@4psa.com — 2008-10-06T00:00:00-05:00
October 6, 2008 - Rack-Soft launched today 4PSA Clean Server 4, the next generation email and file system antivirus for Plesk servers, based on the 4Grid technology. The software introduces distributed scanning, delivery policies and advanced antivirus control features. 4PSA Clean Server uses the award winning ClamAV antivirus engine.

4PSA Clean Server 4 solves all email antivirus scanning issues that Plesk administrators face today. With a traditional antivirus, email scanning is performed on the hosting server. As the scanning process is CPU intensive, regular processes serving HTTP or Database are affected, leading to sub-pair performance. On a hosting server using an old generation antivirus, high email flow can lead to Denial of Service or delayed email delivery.

To solve some of the problems associated with host level email scanning, providers deploy specialized email filtering appliances in front of the hosting servers. These usually introduce single points of failure, can scan a limited number of emails, hardly integrate in an automated environment, and are not economically efficient.

4PSA Clean Server 4 introduces a new approach to solve these issues by clustering the scanning processes. The product can be installed on one server like a traditional antivirus and when the number of servers increases, the hosting company can introduce specialized scanning nodes that handle email scanning for the entire infrastructure. Scanning requests are distributed automatically between scanning nodes and email delivery is not affected even when a hosting machine is flooded with emails.

The product is based on the proprietary 4Grid, an innovative technology born to allow providers to create service delivery clouds. “4PSA Clean Server 4 is our first public release of a product based on 4Grid framework. Together with our customers, we tested the new version in large environments with more than two hundred Plesk hosting servers.

Rack-Soft Launches New Customer Portal and Provides New Tools to Partners

press@4psa.com — 2008-09-17T00:00:00-05:00
September 17, 2008 - Rack-Soft announced today the immediate availability of the 4PSA Clients Area 3, the customer management portal integrated into the company website. The new area streamlines license management operations and adds more powerful provisioning tools that help Rack-Soft partners and clients accelerate operations.

4PSA Clients Area 3 allows 4PSA partners to issue license keys from a web based interface or using web services API methods. With the new Clients Area, customers and partners can work with both leased and owned licenses. The portal integrates license key management for 4PSA software and third-party products, like Parallels. 4PSA business partners can purchase Parallels keys directly from the Clients Area and manage them accordingly.

Invoicing and purchasing process has been greatly simplified to enable partners and customers to grow without adding overhead. "Keyword for this update is automation. Most improvements were driven by two facts: in the last year our partner network doubled and new licensing methods were made available. The latest updates are focused on platform, that’s why we are able to offer almost the same features we provide for our software license keys for Parallels keys as well. Our customers can purchase licenses for 4PSA and Parallels products while having full control over the process.", said Bogdan Carstoiu, Rack-Soft’s General Manager.

Providers deploying 4PSA software on leased servers can take advantage of the leased licensing model that best matches their business. Rack-Soft has more than 5,500 customers and over 100 channel partners and resellers worldwide and provides software that is installed on more than 15,000 servers.

Rack-Soft Adds Click to Call Features to Web through VoipNow Browser Module

press@4psa.com — 2008-08-25T00:00:00-05:00
August 25, 2008 - Rack-Soft launched today VoipNow Browser Module, a free browser plug-in that enables click to call functions in all web pages visited by a 4PSA VoipNow user.

"We created this plug-in software because we wanted to offer our customers better integration with software from other vendors. For all applications that work in the browser, we addressed the integration at the browser level. VoipNow users will be able to add click to call features to any application, which is unique in industry. We are offering this experience for free, so our customers do not have to pay for the hidden costs, wait for integrations to become available or install and maintain third party software. Once the browser plug-in is configured, it will work with any web based application.", said Bogdan Carstoiu, Rack-Soft’s General Manager.

Rack-Soft’s 4PSA DNS Manager 3.5 Brings New DNS Infrastructure Management Capabilities

press@4psa.com — 2008-08-11T00:00:00-05:00
August 11, 2008 - Rack-Soft launched today 4PSA DNS Manager 3.5, the latest release of the multitenant DNS management software that delivers DNS hosting automation to service providers and businesses. 4PSA DNS Manager centralizes zone records from hosting infrastructures and helps service providers create scalable and redundant DNS platforms. The new version automates DNS load balancing management and supports additional DNS resource record types.

4PSA DNS Manager 3.5 comes with DNS round robin management allowing the creation of load balanced DNS infrastructures very easily. The software monitors servers based on a pre-selected protocol and disables their DNS records when they become non-responsive. Once the resources become available again, the DNS records are re-enabled, which results in customer requests directed to them.

The latest version provides many other new features including ENUM for Internet Telephony Service Providers, IPv6 records support, whitebox licensing, and SPF records automation. “DNS Manager 3.5 delivers more than DNS automation, it builds applications on DNS infrastructure. We started by providing DNS round-robin automation that helps customers setup zero maintenance DNS balancing services in minutes and SPF on click generation. More than 30 features are presented in the new version, but I think that our customers will most appreciate the support for new resource record types, like SRV, NAPTR, AAAA.” said Bogdan Carstoiu, Rack-Soft’s General Manager.

4PSA DNS Manager is available for Linux operating systems in a wide range of formats, including an ISO image, VMware appliance, and Virtuozzo/OpenVZ templates. The product can be downloaded and can be used with up to ten DNS zones for free. Commercial licenses start from 259 USD and include 12 months of technical support.

Rack-Soft Introduces VoipNow Hosted to Simplify the Transition to Hosted PBX Services

press@4psa.com — 2008-07-08T00:00:00-05:00
July 8, 2008 - Rack-Soft announced the release of 4PSA VoipNow Hosted, targeted to SMB market and small Internet service providers. The new service allows customers to take advantage of VoIP benefits, such as integration with business software applications, lower costs, and increased mobility, without having to bother about hardware equipment or platform management to sustain the application.

4PSA VoipNow employs SaaS (Software as a Service) distribution model, providing clients with both the application and the infrastructure required to run it. The service is provisioned immediately after order approval and requires no additional investment beside a monthly fee. Customers can handle administrative tasks such as selecting the preferred SIP provider, configuring telephone extensions, call management, Call Centers administration, conferences, or voice mail through the web interface offered by 4PSA VoipNow Professional.

"For over five years, Rack-Soft software solutions have been used by hosting and Internet Service Providers to deliver services to end users. There are multiple reasons behind the launch of VoipNow Hosted. First, we offer a business model to hosting providers that goes beyond the available marketing resources. Secondly, we try to determine more SMB to embrace hosted PBX, even if their providers are not yet delivering unified communication and last, but not least, we are helping small providers to benefit from business opportunities before investing in infrastructure and know-how", said Bogdan Carstoiu, Rack-Soft’s General Manager.

4PSA VoipNow Hosted is available in several versions based on the number of extensions supported, storage space, and Whitebox licensing features. Monthly fees start from US $99 for a package that includes support for up to 100 extensions and 20 GB storage space on the server.

Rack-Soft Launches VoipNow Plesk Module Allowing Hosting Providers to Integrate Hosting and VoIP Services

press@4psa.com — 2008-06-16T00:00:00-05:00
June 16, 2008 - Rack-Soft announced today the general availability of the free connection module between its hosted PBX server software 4PSA VoipNow and Paralells Plesk, the industry’s leading control panel. The new software delivers a unified communication platform by integrating Parallels Plesk with 4PSA VoipNow under a single administration interface. The user management is automated and the provisioning of voice and video communications in hosted environments is dramatically simplified.

"By combining the hosting industry’s leading control panel with the hosted VoIP PBX software, providers are ready for unified communications and to offer value services to their customers. With this integration, service providers that use Plesk can resell VoIP services and offer affordable hosted PBX services to SMB and residential users using SaaS (Software as a service) model.", said Bogdan Carstoiu, Rack-Soft’s General Manager.

VoipNow Plesk Module replicates effortlessly existing Plesk accounts into VoipNow with only a click of a button or links Plesk users with existing VoipNow accounts for centralized management. Plesk users with VoipNow accounts can work with hosting and VoIP from the same interface. When VoIP functionality is added to a Plesk account, the user will have delivered voicemail and faxes directly into his email box.

4PSA VoipNow 1.6.2 Released with New Business Integration Tools

press@4psa.com — 2008-06-09T00:00:00-05:00
June 9, 2008 - Rack-Soft announced today 4PSA VoipNow 1.6.2, the latest release of the hosted IP PBX server software solution for service providers, call centers, and enterprises. The newest version introduces important features designed to improve user’s interaction and system connectivity, like the CallNow Center, PBX Call API, "no kernel modules" architecture, and backup restore functions.

The new tool for companies of all sizes is called CallNow Center and allows 4PSA VoipNow users to be contacted from the Internet while fully controlling the caller's session. "VoipNow customers can publish a link on their website or include it in the email signature to allow others to get in touch with them. Unlike a simple click2call, which can be triggered through the VoipNow Call API, the CallNow Center allows VoipNow users to control the caller’s session. It was designed for people that interact often with customers, like sales, marketing professionals, support, etc." said Bogdan Carstoiu, 4PSA VoipNow architect.

The new Call API HTTP interface can be accessed in order to control PBX calls. As PBX Call API access is provided to regular extensions in VoipNow, this module provides further support for plug-in developments. The interface is able to provide basic HTML or rich AJAX output, so the user can watch PBX events in real-time.

The software vendor also focused on virtualized computing with the newest release. "As part of 4PSA commitment to green computing, we invested great effort to simplify VoipNow deployments in service provider environments. In the latest 4PSA VoipNow 1.6.2 version we removed all kernel level dependencies and modified the product to run only in userspace. Even companies using 4PSA VoipNow on dedicated servers take advantage of this change, because they don’t longer have to compile additional kernel modules after each Linux kernel update." added Mr. Carstoiu.

4PSA VoipNow comes in two editions. The Express edition is free for community and is limited to 10 phone extensions, while the Professional edition comes with advanced features, high availability, more extensions, and free technical support. 4PSA VoipNow is also integrated with Parallels Plesk, allowing providers to offer hosting and VoIP under the same package. Prices for the commercial version start from 299USD.

Parallels to Resell Rack-Soft’s VoipNow PBX Software

press@4psa.com — 2008-05-20T00:00:00-05:00
4PSA VoipNow Provides Integration with Parallels Plesk Control Panel and Delivers Hosted PBX Services to Business and Residential Users

20 May 2008 - Rack-Soft announced on Monday, during the Parallels Summit 2008 held in Washington DC, that it signed an agreement with Parallels for the distribution of its flagship product, 4PSA VoipNow. Parallels is a worldwide leader in virtualization and automation software for hosting service providers.

4PSA VoipNow, the popular PBX software for service providers and enterprises, has been integrated with Parallels Plesk Control Panel and delivers communication services for end users via the software-as-a-service (SaaS) model. The announcement was followed by a product presentation held by Mr. Bogdan Carstoiu, Rack-Soft's General Manager.

This integration allows Parallels customers to provide cost effective PBX services for corporate and residential users. The hosted PBX model offers the advantages of a PBX system, which can cost tens of thousands of dollars to deploy and maintain, for a low monthly fee. A hosted PBX enables a company to easily connect its offices around the world and to implement advanced voice and video communication integrated with current software business tools. Annual worldwide PBX revenue reached $8.9 Billion in 2006 and is expected to reach almost $12 Billion by 2010.

Support for VoipNow is included with Parallels Plesk Control Panel 8.4. The VoipNow Plesk Module integrates the two products into a single management interface. By combining the hosting industry’s leading control panel with the hosted VoIP PBX software, hosting providers can offer more diversified services to their customers. The VoipNow Plesk Module also automates user management and dramatically simplifies the provisioning and delivery of voice and video services.

"Partnering with Rack-Soft to bring its PBX software solution to Parallels Plesk Control Panel users is an excellent example of how innovative technologies can be delivered via SaaS to help end users control costs and improve efficiency", said Serguei Beloussov, CEO of Parallels. "With competitive pricing and leasing options, Parallels makes it cost effective and flexible for service providers to integrate key SaaS applications, such as VoipNow, into their portfolios."

"We are excited to work with Parallels to offer VoipNow through its service provider channel" said Bogdan Carstoiu, Rack-Soft’s General Manager. "Now, with the integration into the Parallels Plesk Control Panel, customers can manage hosting and VoIP services from the same web-based interface."

The ISO 9001:2000 certification is yet another proof of Rack-Soft’s constant and active pursuit to improve process quality based on established procedures.

"Rack-Soft has been present for quite a while on a highly competitive market where quality and performance are strong differentiators. Improving the quality of our internal procedures, software services, and customer relationships can be described as daily activities, even before the ISO 9001 adoption. The most important benefit of the ISO 9001:2000 standard implementation is that it greatly helped us review and further improve our internal processes according to industry’s best practices.“, said Bogdan Carstoiu, Rack-Soft’s General Manager.

4PSA VoipNow 1.6 Improves Productivity and System Interconnectivity

press@4psa.com — 2008-01-23T00:00:00-05:00
January 23, 2008 - Rack-Soft launched today 4PSA VoipNow 1.6, the latest release of the hosted IP PBX software server solution for service providers, call centers, and enterprises. Designed to better address business needs, this version is shipped with more than 20 new features, like SIP presence support, IAX channels interconnectivity, Paging, Intercom, outgoing call screening, advanced groups support, and key improvements in reporting and billing modules.

SIP Presence allows extensions to monitor the status of phone terminals. SIP phones can be configured to display on multi color LED buttons what other extensions in the company are doing."As 4PSA VoipNow is a multitenant PBX solution, presence messages are isolated between clients. Furthermore, clients can restrict presence to groups allowing some persons to monitor only certain extensions, a very useful feature for enterprise deployments. With presence activated, the receptionist will know before transferring a call that the manager is on the phone." said Bogdan Carstoiu, 4PSA VoipNow architect.

4PSA VoipNow 1.6 IAX support helps companies improve connection with providers, as there are many carriers offering IAX signaling. At the logic level, the IAX channels implementation replicates all the features present on SIP channels, like call routing, failover, and call concurrency control.

In 4PSA VoipNow 1.6 we focused on improving the system operation for businesses. Intercom and Paging allow employees to broadcast messages to selected groups or extensions. The phone system administrator can easily control the persons who can use the service. Call screening is a must have for call centers, as it allows them to control the calls made by agents, a legal requirement in many jurisdictions. VoipNow can filter calls to millions of destinations, without any important stress on the system., added Mr. Carstoiu.

The large number of improvements operated to IVR, Queue, callbacks, and calling cards were mostly based on feedback gathered from customers and community in the second part of 2007. Most of them are targeted to improve the end user’s experience.

4PSA VoipNow comes in two editions. The Express edition is free for community and is limited to 10 phone extensions, while the Professional edition comes with advanced features, high availability, more extensions, and free technical support. Prices for the commercial version start from 299USD.

4PSA VoipNow 1.4 Simplifies Hosted PBX Business

press@4psa.com — 2007-03-21T00:00:00-05:00
March 21, 2007 - Rack-Soft announced today the most comprehensive update of 4PSA VoipNow released so far. With more than thirty new features and functions, 4PSA VoipNow 1.4 is the new version of the popular hosted PBX platform for Internet Service Providers and Hosting Service Providers.

The new 4PSA VoipNow version comes with a phone provisioning module, hardware interfaces integration, incoming calls billing capability, call parking and pickup support, improved routing rules, new SOAP API functions, account management optimizations, interface improvements, new IVR (Interactive Voice Response) applications, and many other new features.

The phone provisioning module supports devices from Cisco, Linksys, Snom, and Grandstream. "The ability to provision phones through the web interface is interesting for providers of hosted PBX services because it automates the tasks involved in configuring and maintaining a large number of devices. The provisioning module is based on a scalable design and allows new phones and vendors to be easily added in the next 4PSA VoipNow releases based on customer requests. As long as the SIP device comes with such an option, we will be able to make it connect to the 4PSA VoipNow provisioning module.", said Bogdan Carstoiu, 4PSA VoipNow architect.

4PSA VoipNow 1.4 is able to work with Zaptel hardware interfaces. These can connect the server to a PSTN network through analog or digital phone lines. Businesses can use inexpensive hardware cards to keep costs under control and to scale the infrastructure as they grow. Media converters or external SIP carriers are no longer required. "A provider that uses 4PSA VoipNow can choose from over fifty interface cards available from various vendors. The card must be inserted into the server and the first call through the PSTN network can be made in several minutes. Channel management is equally easy for all types of cards, whether a four channels analog or a digital E1 card is used.", added Mr. Carstoiu.

Even more parameters can be controlled through the 4PSA VoipNow 1.4 SOAP API interface. With the new version, the PHP client released under GPL by Rack-Soft to demonstrate the software API features has also been updated.

4PSA VoipNow is available for Redhat Enterprise Linux, Suse Linux, and Fedora Core distributions. The product can be installed through the command line installer or using the ISO image. In order to support high density hosted PBX environments, Rack-Soft also prepared 4PSA VoipNow 1.4 for Virtuozzo machines.

Virtual Private Servers running 4PSA VoipNow can be deployed in several minutes.

4PSA VoipNow is free for two extensions. The prices for the commercial licenses that offer more extensions and include technical support start with 299USD.

March 5, 2007 - Rack-Soft announced today the availability of the free 4PSA VoipNow license for two extensions and the free 30 days support for users who evaluate 4PSA VoipNow. The company also released a video demonstration of the 4PSA VoipNow ISO installation and basic configuration.

Rack-Soft believes in VoIP technology and offers a reliable hosted VoIP solution to Internet Service Providers and Hosting Service Providers. Small and medium businesses, enterprises, and residential customers can take advantage of innovative, affordable communication services. In order to support the market and accelerate VoIP deployment, Rack-Soft changes the licensing terms and gives the 4PSA VoipNow two extensions license for free. Anyone can download the software, install and use it with two phone extensions.

The new 30 days free support offered to companies that evaluate 4PSA VoipNow is also part of Rack-Soft’s strategy to accelerate VoIP deployment. Rack-Soft’s engineers will help users install and configure the system and, ultimately, make the right decision. "4PSA VoipNow popularity exploded in the last months. Many companies saw the product’s potential, but there are many that still haven’t had the chance to install and test it. We want to better support them during the evaluation steps. Any company can download the two extensions license, and use the software for free. We can also provide unlimited licenses for testing purposes.", said John Kehler, Hosting Product Manager, Rack-Soft.

Installing and configuring 4PSA VoipNow is an easy task even for non-technical people. To demonstrate how fast a VoIP service can be deployed with 4PSA VoipNow, Rack-Soft invited Andreea to test the installation. The entire process was recorded on video and broadcasted on YouTube. "The video shows best how easy it is to install 4PSA VoipNow. There are many reasons why the movie is interesting. It goes through the ISO installation process and also covers a very basic system configuration. Everything is done by a very nice lady invited to record this demo.", also added Mr. Kehler.

The ISO installation procedure is also new. The 4PSA VoipNow CD image is based on CentOS 4.4 operating system and contains the necessary environment for the software. Using the ISO CD, the installation process is simplified and trouble-free, especially when multiple 4PSA VoipNow servers are deployed. VAR and OEM partners can also take advantage of the new installation option.

The video demonstration of the 4PSA VoipNow is available on YouTube (part 1 - installation and part 2 - configuration).

A high resolution version of the video can be downloaded from the Rack-Soft's website.

4PSA VoipNow 1.3, Text to Speech and New Features

press@4psa.com — 2006-11-08T00:00:00-05:00
November 8, 2006 - More than thirty new features were incorporated in the 4PSA VoipNow 1.3, the latest version of the Rack-Soft’s VoIP control panel solution for Hosting Service Providers and Internet Service Providers.

4PSA VoipNow 1.3 enhances the control of business processes. The service provider is able to better track and limit the telephony accounts’ use of resources. It is possible to define the IVR, Queue, Queue agents, Voicemail center, Conference, etc access policies on any account, allowing the provider to scale services with client needs.

The third-party interaction also improved. Integrators can access more 4PSA VoipNow core features using the SOAP API. Providers are able to add services to the 4PSA VoipNow interface through the new custom buttons API, which can be accessed by all users. In order to provide better margins to the reseller chain, clients are able to customize billing plans with their own billing prefixes. Public phone numbers can be easier deployed to resellers due to the new stacked public phone numbers feature, which allows DIDs to be assigned automatically.

Currently highly appreciated by users due to the scalable design and easy management functionalities, the 4PSA VoipNow IVR welcomes the text to speech feature. Text to speech is based on the Cepstral engine and can deliver interactive voice response menus in US English, UK English, Italian, Canadian French, German, and Americas Spanish. The multiple choices of female and male voices simplify the deployment and management of IVRs. A new range of dynamic applications can be designed without being necessary to pre-record hundreds of sound files.

Rack-Soft presents the new 4PSA VoipNow version only three months after the last version release. "Although the schedule might seem aggressive, it is the result of a mature iterative development process designed to sustain a reliable and fast growing telephony solution. Once again, the customer feedback proved to be one of the most important assets of the development team.", said Bogdan Carstoiu, 4PSA VoipNow architect.

The queue extensions were also dramatically improved, bringing 4PSA VoipNow closer to call centers and customer support departments. In the new version, it is possible to assign queue supervisors who are able to listen to agent conversations in real-time. The Queue reports were redesigned, over twenty-five new reports being available.

4PSA VoipNow 1.3 is a free update for all customers. The online demonstration of the new version is available here.

A single extension version can be downloaded and installed from Rack-Soft’s website.

4PSA Spam Guardian 3 for Plesk is Available

press@4psa.com — 2006-07-10T00:00:00-05:00
July 10, 2006 - 4PSA Spam Guardian 3, the latest version of the most advanced spam filtering solution for Plesk servers is available, announced Rack-Soft, the server software provider.

4PSA Spam Guardian 3 improves a mature solution used by thousands of Plesk server administrators. The new version gained extra email filtering speed, is more accurate in spam detection, and features new management options for both the administrator and the hosting service customer.

A score is assigned to the email based on the message probability to be spam. The spam detection engine is now able to tag emails with a spam score higher than a value setup by the customer and to automatically drop emails with a score higher than another predefined value. Due to this new feature, users do not have to worry that the spam filter will drop important messages. The customer can adjust settings independently on domain or mailbox level.

Spam messages are disturbing, even if they are filtered and tagged accordingly. In order to limit their impact on overall productivity, spam messages can be saved in an IMAP folder for a later review or for automatic processing.

The server administrator can define custom spam filtering rules from the web interface. Messages that contain forbidden phrases or words in subject, headers or body can be assigned a custom spam score. This makes it very easy for the 4PSA Spam Guardian engine to filter immediately a particular class of unwanted messages.

The server administrator is also able to adjust global spam engine preferences, like the Bayesian filter learning model, the auto-learn thresholds, the collaborative spam learning network checks, whitelists, blacklists, and the trusted networks.

4PSA Spam Guardian 3 is able to render real-time graphics based on the spam engine statistics. "It is very important for our customers to know exactly what happens on their servers. Spam can get out of control, that’s why users highly appreciated the spam engine statistics that we introduced in 4PSA Spam Guardian almost two years ago. The new version is able to give even more information and users can choose to receive daily updates about the engine’s efficiency. For hosting customers it is vital to feel exactly what is their provider doing in order to protect their mailbox.", said John Kehler, Hosting Product Manager, 4PSA.

4PSA Spam Guardian is available for Plesk 8, Plesk 7.5 Reloaded, and Plesk 7 Reloaded on all supported UNIX and Linux operating systems. The new version has prices starting from USD 69.

More details about 4PSA Spam Guardian, including a datasheet and an online demo can be found here.

4PSA VoipNow, the VoIP Control Panel Is Available

press@4psa.com — 2006-05-30T00:00:00-05:00
May 30, 2006 - 4PSA VoipNow, the first VoIP control panel for Hosting Service Providers and Internet Service Providers is ready for public release after four weeks of beta testing, announced Rack-Soft, the server software provider.

4PSA VoipNow is a telephony software solution designed for Linux operating systems, which allows small and medium HSP (Hosting Service Providers) and ISP (Internet Service Providers) to penetrate new markets and take advantage of new opportunities. Business and residential customers can be targeted with new, cost effective, value added communication services.

The software can be installed in less than ten minutes and it is managed over a platform independent browser interface. The four administration levels (administrator, reseller, client, and phone extension) provide deployment flexibility. The multi-layered management model follows a proven successful reselling pattern, familiar to the web hosting world.

The first 4PSA VoipNow release provides advanced telephony features like call routing, call queues, dynamic conferencing, voicemail, call recording, call transfers, call waiting, call cascading, call forwarding, call filtering etc. The product implements the telephony functions using Asterisk, the leading Open Source software PBX solution.

More than 350 companies tested the beta version of the software, many of them providing valuable feedback to Rack-Soft. "During the testing session, we received many more emails than we expected. Even though only a few emails contained bug reports, people were eager to send us their impressions. To our team, these messages have been the best reward. We really appreciate the efforts made to test the new solution and the time spent to comment upon it. 4PSA VoipNow is on a strong development path, according to our established roadmaps and based on customer feedback.", said Bogdan Carstoiu, 4PSA VoipNow Chief Architect.

With 4PSA VoipNow, providers can address particular customer needs without sacrificing standardization or profitability. Compared to hardware PBX systems, the Rack-Soft solution scales better with the business, can embrace new technologies, and it is in permanent evolution. This guarantees that clients do not invest in technologies that will soon become obsolete. With 4PSA VoipNow the companies’ investments in expensive telecommunication hardware are greatly reduced.

"Companies that tested the beta version highly appreciated the real-time call routing engine, the innovative billing model, the software usability, the proactive monitoring services, and the product integration with the operating system. It is very hard to decide which feature was most appreciated. Some people tested routing first because it was very important for their business, while for others the billing options had precedence. We had participants that even tested the product on real customers to see how they react. Due to such various tests I can describe the beta session as a success", added Mr. Carstoiu.

The product is available now with prices starting at 299USD. Check this area for more information about 4PSA VoipNow. To get a better view on the product features and interface, do not hesitate to check the 4PSA VoipNow Online Demo.

4PSA VoipNow Beta Is Available

press@4psa.com — 2006-05-01T00:00:00-05:00
May 1, 2006 - Rack-Soft, the server software provider announced the first VoIP control panel for Hosting Service Providers and Internet Service Providers. The company’s innovative product, 4PSA VoipNow, is available to companies joining the beta testing session.

4PSA VoipNow is a server software designed to simplify the deployment of hosted VoIP services to both residential and business customers. The product can be easily managed over the web from the browser interface.

VoIP is an IP service and should not be different from other IP services like http, mail, DNS, etc, which are very familiar to most Internet users. 4PSA VoipNow takes advantage of the traditional web hosting service concepts, opening a gate to an educated customer base that has been already using domain and email hosting for many years.

The software has four administration levels, for provider, reseller, client and phone extension. All accounts feature independent limits and permissions. Due to the product’s flexible structure, 4PSA VoipNow can work in many different environments. Although the solution was developed with service providers in mind, it can be used by any company as an in-house IP PBX system.

"4PSA VoipNow provides a business platform for its customers. Unlike hardware based IP PBX systems, the software PBX can continuously improve and provide new features. The software solution can easily accept more terminals, work with new hardware interfaces and protocols, scale to a multi server VoIP hosting infrastructure, and be customized by the provider. Companies can offer targeted VoIP services without massive hardware investments", said Bogdan Carstoiu, 4PSA VoipNow chief architect.

From the first version 4PSA VoipNow supports advanced telephony features like call queues, dynamic conferencing, voicemail, call recording, call transfers, call waiting, call cascading, call forwarding, call filtering, etc. The product implements the telephony functions using Asterisk, the leading Open Source software PBX solution.

"Our primary concern while designing 4PSA VoipNow was to build a powerful, yet easy to understand system for all users, regardless of their experience. VoIP is often associated with low cost. Cost savings are great, but I am sure that the feature rich, flexible communication service will conquer the telephony users. I am expecting to see many new specialized providers able to satisfy the most demanding customers", added Mr. Carstoiu.

4PSA VoipNow also implements a real-time call routing engine, able to route calls based on the dialed number and the time of call. The real-time billing mechanism is highly flexible and includes both pre-paid and post-paid billing models.

The product is scheduled for public release in May 2006. The licensing model and the end-user prices will be announced on the product release. The licensing model will be designed to support providers and therefore to encourage the VoIP spread between home users, small and medium companies.

4PSA VoipNow beta is available for selected, Linux based operating systems. The computing requirements are moderate and grow with the business. A server with a 2 GHz CPU and 1Gb of RAM can provide hosted VoIP services to several small companies.

4PSA Hosting Manager 1.2 is Available

press@4psa.com — 2006-02-13T00:00:00-05:00
February 13, 2006 - 4PSA, a custom solutions provider for web hosting companies announced today a new version of 4PSA Hosting Manager, an account sign-up automation software developed for Plesk servers.

The hosting business can be described today as a low margin industry; therefore it requires powerful automation for all processes. Automation minimizes costs, increases efficiency and does not test the customer’s patience. It gains importance as the business grows and it is a vital expansion factor. With prices starting as low as 129USD for three servers, 4PSA Hosting Manager is the intelligent, scalable, and configurable hosting automation available for Plesk servers.

New template options were added to 4PSA Hosting Manager 1.2. The sign-up process provides not only the setup of standard domains packages, but also the creation of clients with special permissions and limits. This way, with only a mouse click, a new reseller account can be set in several seconds, without losing precious time on defining features and limits over and over again. This happens no matter how many servers the company manages.

4PSA Hosting Manager 1.2 features a better integration with payment gateways and third-party applications. The integration plug-in was completely redesigned in order to provide more options to the hosting company. "The integration is now based on encrypted session authentication. The engine offers new methods like passed variables lock, transparent account creation, creation approval, and field auto-fill in hosting generation forms. We supply the commented PHP source code for the plug-in functions, which makes the integration easy even for non developers", said John Kehler, Hosting Product Manager, 4PSA.

The new command line creation utils provided by 4PSA Hosting Manager 1.2 take advantage of the engine’s distributed account creation mechanisms and allow hosting companies to integrate the sign-up automation with other software. "Administrators are now able to integrate 4PSA Hosting Manager with any application and create domains even without using the client module or the web interface. They can create hosting packages virtually from any application, written in any programming language, without sacrificing the functionality.", also added Mr. Kehler.

New in 4PSA Hosting Manager 1.2, administrators can choose to approve the account creation. The approval process, although fast creates an additional overhead. This is a small price to pay in order to address a common account sign-up abuse.
4PSA Hosting Manager is designed for Plesk 7 Reloaded and Plesk 7.5 Reloaded for Linux/Unix and it is compatible with all operating systems and platforms supported by Plesk 7 Reloaded and Plesk 7.5 Reloaded.

New 4PSA Server Controller 1.1 is Available

press@4psa.com — 2005-12-21T00:00:00-05:00
December 21, 2005 - 4PSA, a custom solutions provider for servers announced today a new version of 4PSA Server Controller, a software package designed to monitor multiple Linux/UNIX servers and to manage accounts on remote Plesk servers from a single, centralized, Microsoft Windows interface.

In the first month after it entered the market, 4PSA Server Controller passed Veritest Platform Test for ISV Solution. 4PSA Server Controller 1.1 was released one month and a half after the first build and provides more administration features. Clients are able to manage Plesk installed on Microsoft Windows from the same interface, which completes the product integration with a wide range of remote operating systems. 4PSA Server Controller 1.1 is now able to intercommunicate with all operating systems supported by Plesk.

In addition to client accounts, domains, and IP addresses, the Plesk server management component is now able to administer mail names on remote Plesk servers. This feature allows administrators to create, edit and delete mail names, redirect them, configure them as mailboxes, manage control panel access, change mailbox quota, etc. "The product goal is to provide a complete management solution; we are working to integrate all hosting features in 4PSA Server Controller. Administrators and clients will be able to control everything from their Windows desktop, with several mouse clicks. This will make the business more efficient and will bring hosting even closer to the client.", said John Kehler, Hosting Product Manager, 4PSA.

4PSA Server Controller is used by customer service representatives, technical support, management and operations. The software’s ability to give control over a server fleet from a single interface that does not suffer from server switching timeouts and web browsing issues is a strong business case for all companies that take hosting seriously.

4PSA Server Controller is compatible with Microsoft Windows 2000, Microsoft Windows XP, and Microsoft Windows 2003.

4PSA Server Assistant 2 Is Available

press@4psa.com — 2005-12-07T00:00:00-05:00
December 7, 2005 - 4PSA, a custom solutions provider for web hosting companies announced today a new version of 4PSA Server Assistant, an advanced proactive monitoring solution designed for Plesk servers.

Many server owners had at least once the server down due to an attack generated by a local user. Bad intention or not, downtime occurs due to excessive server resources usage. For today’s web hosting industry, the need to ensure business uptime and data reliability is vital. Administrators can do a splendid job, but they cannot watch the server 24h/day and take action every time something goes wrong. That’s why thousands of companies worldwide use 4PSA Server Assistant expertise to maximize uptime and reliability.

4PSA Server Assistant 2 brings new features like per process memory and CPU monitoring with automatic intervention, anti-tampering port and socket monitoring, incoming / outgoing bandwidth monitoring, Qmail queue monitoring, and improved proactive service monitoring. The price of 4PSA Server Assistant starts as low as USD 69 for 30 domains.

In order to minimize the effects of software errors or abusive utilization, 4PSA Server Assistant analyzes the resources used by processes and can automatically terminate the programs that do not meet the server policy terms as defined by the administrator. Socket and port monitoring is also an important part of the picture because such events are usually associated with an illegal operation.

4PSA Server Assistant adds proactive monitoring to Plesk servers. The software is able to record information about core server parameters like CPU and memory utilization, MySQL connections, incoming and outgoing bandwidth utilization, load, number of processes, etc. and track their evolution in time. "4PSA Server Assistant tries to detect problems before they occur. Helped by intelligent, proactive monitoring, hosting companies can provide efficient services and improved reliability to their customers", said John Kehler, Hosting Product Manager, 4PSA.

The bandwidth and Qmail queue monitoring functions are designed to alert the administrator when network resources usage exceeds a predefined limit or when the server sends more emails than it is supposed to. These functions can avoid a lot of trouble like overcharges and server spam listing.

4PSA Server Assistant 2 is compatible with Plesk 7.5 Reloaded and Plesk 7.1 Reloaded, running on all Linux and UNIX operating systems supported by Plesk.

Redesigning Innovation, 4PSA Server Controller Released

press@4psa.com — 2005-11-01T00:00:00-05:00
November 1, 2005 - 4PSA, a custom solutions provider for servers announced today the public launch of 4PSA Server Controller. The new software is the result of over one year of research and development. 4PSA Server Controller is designed to monitor multiple Linux/UNIX servers and to manage accounts on Plesk servers from a single, centralized, Microsoft Windows interface.

In today’s rapid paced, performance oriented hosting industry, managing servers from a centralized location is a dream for many server owners. Centralized management interfaces increase the provider’s efficiency and deliver a superior business control. 4PSA Server Controller brings Linux/Unix servers to the Windows desktop. Tasks that required command line scripting or many page loads and clicks on traditional browser management interfaces can be performed in several seconds in 4PSA Server Controller.

4PSA Server Controller server monitoring component is able to provide an internal overview of the monitored servers’ parameters. In order to interact with the remote servers 4PSA Server Controller uses mon4psa, an Open Architecture Linux/Unix daemon. Mon4psa monitors server services and sends results to 4PSA Server Controller using a XML based protocol. The daemon is written in C and threaded in order to minimize the monitoring overhead. Administrators can easily extend the default set of monitored parameters.

4PSA Server Controller Plesk server management component is able to administer client accounts, domains, and IP addresses on remote Plesk servers. "The current browser administration model is time consuming. With 4PSA Server Controller, you have your servers at a mouse click. It does not matter if you want to create a domain, edit a client or delete an IP address. You can do this in several seconds, no matter how many servers you have. There is no need to login, switch between browser pages, wait, etc." explained Mircea Nedelcu, Senior Developer, 4PSA. In order to automate and speed-up the Plesk account creation process, administrators are able to define client and domain templates, which can be used with all servers available in the system.

4PSA Server Controller automates the server monitoring and Plesk management based on standard, reusable processes. "It does not matter if a company has one server, several servers, or thousands of servers, 4PSA Server Controller provides increased server control and real-time management features", also added Mr. Nedelcu. In order to monitor more than one server from the same interface window, administrators can use the Multi-Graph feature to view the monitoring graphs in the same time.

4PSA Server Controller is compatible with Microsoft Windows 2000, Microsoft Windows XP, and Microsoft Windows 2003 running .NET 1.1 or later Framework version.

The 4PSA monitoring daemon mon4psa is compatible with a wide range of Linux distributions and FreeBSD operating systems. For compatibility information please check the release notes.

DNS is a top priority service because the online presence of any company relies on a working DNS.

By automating, thus simplifying DNS management and providing new business opportunities, 4PSA DNS Manager delivers bottom line benefits to hosting companies.

"Using the provided scripts administrators can add new hosting servers to 4PSA DNS Manager in less than FIVE minutes per server", said Bogdan Carstoiu, Head of R&D Department, 4PSA.

4PSA DNS Manager provides centralized redundancy. 4PSA DNS Manager will import DNS Zone information from multiple servers and will centralize it on a unified infrastructure. For increased redundancy the company can use more than two physical DNS servers, installed in different geographical locations. "With 4PSA DNS Manager the company can offer the same name servers for all hosting accounts created, no matter how many servers are used for hosting and which is the name of the control panel running on these machines. 4PSA DNS Manager hardware requirements are very low, we recommend our clients to install the application on retired hosting servers", also added Mr. Carstoiu.

4PSA DNS Manager provides support for third-party applications or custom scripts through the command line API. The DNS Zone and Record validation minimizes mistakes and provides guidance for a proper DNS setup.

4PSA DNS Manager reduces the human intervention time, thus saving company’s expenses and increasing reliability. Assistance is required only when the DNS server is experiencing problems. In such cases the administrator is promptly notified by 4PSA DNS Manager alerting features.

4PSA DNS Manager provides extended compatibility and runs under RedHat Linux 7.3, Redhat Linux 9.0, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1, Redhat Enterprise Linux 3, Fedora Linux Core 1, Fedora Linux Core 2, Fedora Linux Core 3, FreeBSD 4.9, FreeBSD 4.10, FreeBSD 5.3, Suse 9.1, Suse 9.2, Debian 3.1, and Mandrake 10.

4PSA Hosting Manager Released by 4PSA

press@4psa.com — 2005-06-14T00:00:00-05:00
June 14, 2005 - 4PSA, a custom solutions provider for web hosting companies announced today the launch of an account sign-up automation software developed exclusively for Plesk(tm). 4PSA Hosting Manager is an advanced solution designed to answer to some of the most important business and technical issues hosting entrepreneurs face today.

All companies try to minimize the operation costs in order to achieve a higher profitability rate. For hosting companies the cost minimization is translated into automation. Automation gains importance as the business grows and it is a vital expansion factor. 4PSA Hosting Manager is the first intelligent, auto maintainable hosting automation for Plesk(tm) available.

In order to reduce account sign-up and long term costs, 4PSA designed a solution which is able to create domains over a large Plesk(tm) server infrastructure, easy to integrate with payment gateways and third-party applications. 4PSA Hosting Manager allows hosting entrepreneurs to analyze and optimize services while their clients are able to sign up in less than ONE minute. "Zero human intervention during account setup was one of the goals we had in mind when designing this solution. 4PSA Hosting Manager automates the hosting account creation with intelligence making this a standard and reusable process that remains efficient no matter how large the company is", said Florin Mihalache, Software Developer, 4PSA.

Efficiency and automation with minimum resources are the key words of the 4PSA Hosting Manager perception. The uniform assessment of resources is performed using the real-time server ranking system which creates the account on the best server available no matter how many choices exist. "This solution is different from oversized automations: it implements crystal clear processes and it is the ONLY sign-up automation designed exclusively for Plesk(tm) hosting platforms." also added Mr. Mihalache. Potential issues that make account addition impossible can be addressed within minutes.

4PSA Hosting Manager can be used even by companies that own only one server. Providing sign-up forms like the major players has never been easier and more affordable. With prices starting as low as 129USD for three servers, 4PSA delivers "bread and automation".

The application is fully skinable, template based, and offers excellent customization and branding capabilities. Everything can be customized, starting with the emails that can be sent on every action and ending with the HTML layout.

May 17, 2005 - 4PSA, a custom solutions provider for web hosting companies released today a new version of the 4PSA Integrator software, an advanced application management solution designed for Plesk(tm) 7.x Reloaded servers.

For today’s web hosting industry, the need to satisfy the customer demands and provide support for popular web applications becomes ever more important. A web hosting company can offer excellent services and prices, but an important factor in the customer decision is the added value of the hosting services. Applications like polls, ecommerce solutions, picture galleries, bulletin boards, chat modules, etc. can make the client choose a hosting provider over another.

4PSA was the first company who released a Plesk(tm) integrated web application management solution. Today 4PSA Integrator helps thousands of companies to maximize their profits and increase the number of clients. The price of 4PSA Integrator 1.6.0 ranges from as low as 69USD for 30 domains to 129USD for unlimited domains license!

The new version of 4PSA Integrator allows users to install the chosen applications in the domain root. 4PSA Integrator delivers additional value because in most cases clients want the tools to be available on the website root, not in a website directory. Currently 4PSA Integrator is the only software for Plesk(tm) able to perform such installations.

4PSA Integrator 1.6.0 provides a new repository of applications with the updated versions of all available tools. The 4PSA Integrator 1.6.0 repository contains 35 of the most representative and useful web applications, chosen based on their development history and utilization polls.

4PSA Qmail Manager Released by 4PSA

press@4psa.com — 2005-04-11T00:00:00-05:00
April 11, 2005 - 4PSA, a custom solutions provider for web hosting companies announced today the launch of a specialized software for Qmail management. 4PSA Qmail Manager is an advanced solution designed to solve some of the most stressing problems that hosting companies face today.

For today’s web hosting industry, the need to deliver fast, secure, and guaranteed business communication is absolutely required. In order to provide the email transmission, Plesk(tm) servers use Qmail, which is a reliable, efficient, and secure message transfer agent. Despite of these excellent features, the Qmail queue manipulation is not an easy task for the server administrators. Some command line tools exist, but they are not easy to use and they do not provide advanced management functions. The default Qmail settings, although suitable for small environments do not deliver the scalability required by a hosting business.

In order to address these issues and to reduce administration costs and efforts, 4PSA designed a Plesk(tm) integrated Qmail management solution.
4PSA Qmail Manager allows server administrators to control various Qmail server options and to manage the queued messages. The Qmail local and remote queues can be searched based on the administrator input options. "Using the search feature, the administrator can monitor the email server activity and find the messages sent or received, but not yet delivered. In order to provide a secure and reliable hosting environment, he can also determine if the server is used as a spam relay and he can better address abuse complaints.", said Florin Mihalache, Software Developer, 4PSA.

Making the email transfer faster and more efficient is a 4PSA Qmail Manager design goal: "The default Qmail configuration is not optimized and it would be difficult to provide a standard optimized configuration that works on all servers. Using 4PSA Qmail Manager the administrator can easily tweak the Qmail settings on his own server, based on traffic, policy, and business profile." added Mr. Mihalache. Huge Qmail queues and slow deliveries can be intelligently prevented.

The interface settings offer customization capabilities for server administrators and hosting companies and allow them to change the 4PSA software access link and the context help. Hosting companies are able to better customize the 4PSA software based on their client needs and marketing policies by using these integration features.

4PSA Qmail Manager is designed for Plesk(tm) 7 Reloaded and Plesk(tm) 7.5 Reloaded for Linux/Unix and it is compatible with all operating systems and platforms supported by Plesk(tm) 7 Reloaded and Plesk(tm) 7.5 Reloaded.

The automation features available at client level and the easy DNS setup procedure make 4PSA DNS Manager very easy to use even for novice users" added Mr. Nedelcu.

Please find below the comments of Tristian Baltoldo, owner of a successful medium sized hosting company.

“We had seven Plesk servers when we discovered 4PSA Central Login almost six months ago. Our resellers are very happy because most of them had accounts on multiple servers and it would have been very stressful for them to walk between different login forms and to send to their clients links to different login pages.
Currently we administer over twenty Plesk servers in different datacenters and we are amazed about the new features of the new Central Login. I enjoy the centralized log interface, the easy server add procedure and my clients really love the new ‘Forget password’ features. Thank you again 4PSA!”

4PSA wants to thank all Plesk administrators who considered 4PSA Notifications and 4PSA Tools. Your feedback was much appreciated by 4PSA developers, in fact it greatly contributed to the product development.
We were surprised to see how fast 4PSA Notifications was adopted and installed on Plesk production servers. All administrators who installed 4PSA Notifications on their servers and provided feedback were impressed about the products’ features. The fact that 4PSA products use the Plesk authentication modules for superior user management and security was one of the most appreciated characteristics.
You talked, we listened. The most requested feature, “a better support for resellers” has been already implemented in version 1.02, together with other visual and performance improvements.
We are looking forward to speaking with you. Your opinions are valuable for the product, so do not hesitate to contact us at support
