Student/Faculty/Alumni Messaging

“Since we deployed Mirapoint, management and administration of the email system has been reduced from five full-time people to one.” – Temple University “After installing the Mirapoint MailHurdle™ technology, we've been able to drop more spam and viruses at the network edge and reduce overall traffic from 450,000 to 150,000 messages per day.” – California Polytechnic State University

Messaging Needs of Faculty, Students, and Alumni Can Be Costly
Universities today have a diverse set of users, with different messaging needs. Faculty members require collaboration tools for managing meetings, setting appointments with students, working with peers, and communicating with colleagues throughout the world. Students need email for communicating with the school, friends, and family, as well as access to events calendars for organizations they participate in at the university. Alumni use email almost exclusively to stay in touch with other alumni, and receive information from the university about potential networking events or fundraising activities. The varying needs of these users can mean lots of email servers, and costly licenses for all.
