Why KOFAX Communication Server?
High Reliability
- No single point of failure in a tandem configuration.
- Unique notification system that only confirms messages once they’re stored on both servers of a tandem configuration. Messages never get lost and always have a reliable status.
- All major components (communication modules, fault tolerance, data storage) are developed by Kofax, which means high quality assurance, since there’s no dependency on other vendors.
High Scalability
- Server-independent “plug and play” communication hardware. Interfaces for fax, SMS and voice. There are no physical limitations as with PCI cards.
- IP-based modules can be distributed on multiple servers.
Open Architecture
- Connectors for common applications (Microsoft Exchange, Lotus Notes, SAP and other business applications).
- Open interfaces and a developer API allow the integration of non-standard applications.
- Integration of virtually any physical device (MFPs, fax machines, analog or IP phones, etc.).
Best Performance-to-Resource Ratio
- All components were developed specifically for communication, offering higher performance and requiring fewer resources.
- Communication protocol handling is outsourced to the stand-alone line server hardware.
- Completely new design of FoIP 3.0 deals with difficult resource situations, such as on virtual machines.
Low Maintenance Effort
- Centrally manageable architecture reduces administration expenses significantly, especially in a distributed environment.
- Self-maintaining line server hardware can be placed in a subsidiary as a branch box without local IT assistance.
- No server restarts or down-time in case of hardware replacement.
