Ceryx’s ThinOffice division to provide private-label offering for SMBs

TORONTO - November 15, 2007. TBayTel, the #1 Communications Solutions Provider in Northern Ontario, today announced that they have chosen Thin Office, a division of Ceryx Inc., to provide Hosted Exchange services for their SMB customer base. This announcement further complements the launch of TBayTel’s Direct IT – Managed Services offering.

“We chose ThinOffice because we believe Managed IT Services is about leveraging the best national and international suppliers and partners to bring best practices and cutting edge tools to small and medium sized businesses in Northern Ontario,” said Angela Domansky Desserre, Vice President, Direct IT-Managed IT Services. “Ceryx demonstrated not only a commitment to the partnership but the superior tools and expert knowledge to make it work.”

The ThinOffice platform delivers a privately-branded Hosted Exchange offering to service providers and organizations looking to extend their messaging and mobility offerings. Partners get all the tools and training necessary to manage and sell the service, including access to the Customer Center administrative Portal, a proprietary tool for provisioning new companies, end users, mobile services as well as SPAM management.

“Microsoft Exchange is the leading messaging and collaboration tool in the market today and we go further to extend that platform by bundling together an advanced mobility offering, branded for our Partners,” said Gus Harsfai, CEO and President of Ceryx Inc. “By including the BlackBerry® Enterprise Server as part of our offering, customers can realize the true potential of their BlackBerry device or have the choice to use ActiveSync with supported Windows Mobile devices.”

“Direct IT is about putting powerful tools in the hands of the SMB, historically only available to the Enterprise,” said Angela Domansky Desserre, Vice President, Direct IT-Managed IT Services. “Now we can deliver services like Hosted Microsoft Exchange, with security and enhanced SPAM protection built in, delivered over your choice of wireless device at a monthly cost that fits a SMB budget.”

This announcement follows other significant Ceryx partnerships, including Canada’s largest wireless carriers, Rogers Wireless and Royal LePage, Canada's leading provider of franchise services to residential real estate brokerages, clearly establishing Ceryx and ThinOffice as the leading Canadian white-label solution provider.
