Bopup Communication Server 3.3.21.9070

Major Features:

1. Instant Messaging Server with a set of enterprise-level features: 
   • Secure and Private Communication: All transmitted messages and files are encrypted with strong encryption algorithms based on the Diffie-Hellman key exchange and CAST-128 algorithms. That is the first and primary way to make corporate and business IM safe and secure.
   • Authentication Modes: The server supports various modes to authenticate and authorize connected users. Choose the best way for your corporate and business infrastructure from the available authentication modes: Simple, Windows Authentication (SSPI) and Private login/password. 
   • Messaging Groups: The centralized management of user groups makes it possible to organize a flexible IM structure with a list of assigned groups and send/receive-only permissions set for each user. 
   • User Online Status: Online statuses allow users to see the current status of each user in their Contact List, i.e. Online, Away, Offline/Not available and control their own status. 
   • Contact List access: Users can organize personal Contact Lists and access them from any workplace and location. Users are informed if there are new contacts available on the IM server and if they can be added to their Contact Lists.
   • Offline File Transfer and Urgent Messaging: Enable message exchange and file transfer even if some users are currently not available. Offline messages and files are automatically delivered by the IM server to the recipient when the latter goes online. Send urgent messages for high-priority tasks and notifications. 
   • File Distribution: Easy, managed and secure distributing files and directories to client workstations. Important documents can be assigned and delivered to users from the server in a fully automated mode with a set of advanced flags. 
   • Terminal Server support: The client software fully supports the Terminal Server, Citrix environments and the Windows XP Fast User Switching feature. Users can communicate even if they are connected to the same server via Terminal Client sessions or have open logon sessions on the same computer simultaneously.
   • Centralized Notification: Send notifications and urgent messages and keep users updated on any events and information. These messages are automatically delivered by the server at the scheduled time at the specified intervals. 
   • Confirmation Mode: Activate the Confirmation Mode which pops up the client messenger when a message is received and keeps it on top of other windows until the user clicks the Confirm Message button. That is the best way to attract users' attention. 
   • Message and Transfer Logging & Archiving: Browse, search and view the entire message and file transfer archives. Print information for any period and for any person.
   • Instant IM Client Updates & Branding: The messaging clients can be instantly updated from the central IM server. This feature allows to keep IM client versions up-to-date and deploy new software updates and patches in a completely automated way without having to manually install it on all user computers. Branding lets you get instant messengers customized with your company logo.
   • Active Directory (LDAP) support: Import user accounts from a global catalog and create the local users database on the server within a few seconds. Import accounts by choosing different criterias: by Organizational Units (OU) or by Groups. The server also provides integration options with a directory and can search and import accounts "on-the-fly" when new users connect.
   • Access from a Command Line interface: Control the communication server and send messages directly from a command line interface. Send scheduled and instant messages to users and groups from third-party applications, scripts or batch files.
   • Fast to Deploy and Easy to Use: Neither experience nor special skills are needed for installing the server. Just go through the steps of the Setup Wizard and get your IM system running in a few minutes.
