MIRAPOINT JOINS GROWING INTERNATIONAL ASP INDUSTRY CONSORTIUM
Nearly 400 companies, including Mirapoint, have joined new consortium

March 20, 2000 - Mirapoint, Inc., a leading provider of Internet infrastructure solutions for messaging networks, has joined the fast-growing Application Service Provider (ASP) Industry Consortium, an international advocacy group dedicated to fostering greater understanding of and guidelines for the fast-emerging application service provider segment of the computer industry.

The Massachusetts-based ASP Industry Consortium has grown quickly in less than a year. Launched on May 11 at Networld + Interop in Las Vegas with 25 companies, the consortium now has nearly 400 members, including Mirapoint. The consortium will sponsor research, foster best practices and work to educate the marketplace about the benefits of the evolving ASP delivery model.

Mirapoint’s messaging servers and routers are ideal for ASPs looking for high performance, sustained reliability and scalability. Mirapoint offers ASPs a full range of hosted messaging options for their business customers. For example, with Mirapoint’s Internet Messaging Server Delegated Domain Administration, ASPs can enable their business customers to administer, manage and control their own hosted messaging domains -- protecting their proprietary information. With Mirapoint solutions, ASPs can offer messaging as a hosted application, centralizing back-office administration, and enabling businesses to control their own domains.

"ASPs are looking for products that are easy to administer and deploy," said Larry Frank, vice president of product marketing and business development, Mirapoint. "Mirapoint’s solutions take the complexity out of managing a messaging system and allow ASPs to focus on their core competencies. By becoming a member of the ASP Industry Consortium, we are looking forward to joining forces with other leading companies to help ASPs deploy the right solutions for their business operations and their customers."
