SAN MATEO, California, May 20 /PRNewswire/ --

- Decreases Hardware Footprint by More Than 97% While Significantly Increasing Performance

Bizanga, the global company behind the most scalable and full-featured email and message processing platform, today announced that Endurance International Group, a leading provider of shared Web site hosting and other online services, has deployed the Bizanga Intelligent Message Processor (IMP) platform to manage and secure their email and messaging needs.

As the third-largest hosting company in the U.S. supporting more than 600,000 sites, Endurance International needed new ways to effectively address the messaging challenges brought on by its rapidly expanding customer base. Through recent acquisitions, the company has seen its hosting requirements double in the prior year, with message traffic growing to more than 300 million messages per day. At its peak, they relied on 260 state-of-the-art email servers for inbound and outbound message management. After considering several message solutions, Endurance International chose to implement the Bizanga IMP platform, augmented by third-party email filtering software from Cloudmark, a Bizanga partner.

"Prior to deploying Bizanga's IMP, the only way to address our aggressive growth rate was to continually add new email servers," said Hari Ravichandran, CTO of Endurance International. "Once we tested the Bizanga platform and analyzed its performance and scalability, we were sold. The deployment process was easy, required no system downtime and the Bizanga platform allowed us to integrate disparate email applications with a minimal effort."

Since implementing the Bizanga IMP platform, Endurance International has experienced an impressive ROI. The company was able to decrease their hardware footprint by 97 percent, reducing the number of email servers from 260 to six, all while significantly increasing performance. By reducing the number of email servers being used and freeing up space within their hosting centers, Bizanga helped Endurance International create potential revenue opportunities to support their continued aggressive growth strategy.

"With the increased demand of Web hosting, providers of email and other online services are facing the daunting challenge of being able to quickly scale to meet customer needs," said Marc Sheldon, Co-founder and CMO of Bizanga. "Our goal is to provide customers, such as Endurance International, with solutions that not only meet their current customer needs but also grow with them in a smart and cost-effective way."
