Microsoft to Acquire FrontBridge Technologies

Just heard today that we’re about to buy FrontBridge Technologies. Got to admit, I hadn’t heard of them until today.

They do offer an interesting solution for managed messaging :

  • hygiene (anti-SPAM and anti-Virus)
  • security (policy enforcement and encryption)
  • compliance (email and im archiving, compliance reporting)
  • continuity (disaster recovery and mail management)

and they also sell through the partner channel – https://www.frontbridge.com/company/partners.php

I’m trying to get some more info as I speak, and we’ll see if we can arrange a LiveMeeting overview of their product set.

In the mean time you can go to https://www.microsoft.com/exchange/evaluation/news/fbridge/default.mspx or contact me for any additional info.
