Antepo has announced the beta release of Rivoli, the latest upgrade to its real-time business collaboration platform OPN System.
The company says OPN System Rivolo brings together presence awareness, IM (instant messaging) and VoIP, "essentially creating a new dial tone -- while meeting critical business requirements for integration, control, security, compliance, and scalability."
Rivolio "seamlessly integrates Presence awareness with corporate directories and popular desktop productivity tools such as Microsoft Office, allowing users to quickly find colleagues and synchronize their availability for conversations and meetings," the company said.
The system also provides a way to tie presence awareness and collaboration to IP telephony infrastructures through standards-based SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) and IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) signaling interfaces, the company said.
Maxime Seguineau, Chairman and CEO of Antepo, said: "As communications modes converge over IP networks, the traditional dial tone is giving way to a new, more intelligent one in the form of Presence."
He told InfoWorld the evaluation beta, which was now available at its Web site, was near final and very stable.
The final version is expected by September.
