Parallels Automation Software Adds Support for Google Message Filtering
2008-04-03
Gives Service Providers Easy Access to Anti-Virus and Spam Protection
Offering
RENTON, Wash., April 2, 2008 – Service providers that use Parallels
Automation software can now easily deliver real-time spam and virus filtering,
attack blocking, and email traffic monitoring using a Google Apps™ security and
compliance package.
Parallels Automation is integrated with the Google Message Filtering™ email
offering, so service providers can streamline delivery of hosted services to
their customers and provide automated billing and provisioning of the Google™
services through Parallels.
"The Google Message Filtering integration with Parallels Automation makes it
easy for service providers to offer their customers an advanced security
solution that requires minimal resources to deploy," said Serguei Beloussov, CEO
of Parallels. "This new offering is another example of how the Parallels Open
Platform is helping service providers add software-as-a-service (SaaS)
capabilities to address the needs of their customers."
According to a recent worldwide survey of 400 service providers by Parallels,
more than 70 percent of them plan to offer SaaS applications this year, nearly
double the number that currently offer SaaS. Security was cited as a key SaaS
application they would like to offer in 2008.
"Google Message Filtering is an always-on, always-current security solution that
does not require any hardware and software installation, and enables IT
administrators to devote their limited resources to projects more strategic to
the business," said Scott Petry, director of product management, Google. "This
integration with Parallels Automation simplifies complex provisioning steps and
gives services providers access to our industry-leading technologies."
"We recently deployed a Parallels Automation-based SaaS infrastructure for
Microsoft Hosted Exchange 2007," said Shazad Boota, operations director, Coreix
Ltd., which specializes in high-availability hosting services for enterprises.
"We chose Parallels Automation because of its full integration with Google
Message Filtering, which enables us to offer market-leading anti-virus and spam
protection to our clients."
Google Apps™ security and compliance services work with any mail system, are
powered by Postini™, and are based on the same technology that protects email
for nearly 40,000 customers and 14 million users a day. Go to

Parallels Automation is a customizable datacenter solution that allows service
providers to more efficiently manage their infrastructure by providing online
ordering, domain registration, service plan management, client self-management,
server management, workflow, billing, payments, and more. With Parallels
Automation’s modular design and flexible architecture, a system can expand to
include new services and scale to several million customers.

automation technology through integration with a wide range of third-party

element of the platform, is used by ISVs and service providers to seamlessly
integrate applications to offer to the more than 10 million businesses and
