London User Group Meeting Notes: Part 2

During the day, there were two customer presentations focusing on the challenges they had, the reason they choose Sendmail and their satisfaction level with the solution and professional services.

The first presenter had typical challenges of the financial sector where their business is made up of different business units that were constantly changing – growing, becoming smaller, sold, merged etc. They needed a routing and directory layer that would give them the flexibility to consolidate, manage and adapt to the constant changing needs. They chose Sendmail Sentrion because it is only solution that could help them with their requirements using the flexible Sentrion platform together with DirSync (Sendmail’s Directory Synchronization product). Our professional services was also able to provide great monitoring capabilities using Nagios to monitor their complex directories that now performed multi-directional synchronization with all their mission critical data sources. The secret sauce was definitely Sendmail’s DirSync solution for this customer.

Presenter two is one of the largest retails banks in the world with a customer base of over 350,000 customers globally. They were using open source before. They said they could not find anybody else in the market that could provide them with all the complex requirements that Sendmail could. This means a modern platform that fit into their virtualization strategy, Sendmail applications mapping into their application stack model, plus additional functionality in reserve to meet future needs of their user base. i.e., full directory needs and DLP applications while at the same not exceeding their current operation expenditure.
This customer was very happy with the record time in implementing such a large scale project.

More to come…
