Ensim (News - Alert) Corporation has introduced Ensim Unify Office 365 Cloud Connector, which allows service providers to more efficiently deliver Microsoft (News - Alert) cloud services.

Officials with Ensim Corporation claimed that Ensim Unify Service Provider Edition is the industry's most advanced and comprehensive platform and control panel for service providers who want to offer hosted applications and services from their datacenter and resell third party cloud service bundles.

Company officials said that Unify offers a complete, centralized, relational platform that manages the creation, activation, configuration, and administration of an entire application and service offering.

"We specifically designed Ensim Unify with the critical operational challenges of deploying and managing hosted applications and cloud services in mind," said Scott Young (News - Alert), VP of marketing and product management at Ensim Corporation, in a statement.

"With the release of Ensim Unify Office 365 Cloud Connector, we will enable service providers to better deliver, bundle, and differentiate hosted services at a lower cost and a higher ARPU with unmatched reliability, flexibility, and speed,” said Young.

He said that the Office 365 Connector is just the latest of many released and to-be-released cloud service connectors allowing service providers to rapidly expand their service portfolios without deploying additional internal infrastructure.

According to company officials, the Ensim Unify Office 365 Cloud Connector has many capabilities including-advanced subscription control that supports the creation of different types of accounts as well as creates and tracks different types of subscriptions for a service provider offering syndication of Office 365; global access, which enables service provider administrators to register the countries of their target customers and designate the specific languages they want to offer, as well as configure a Microsoft Partner ID and/or a Billing ID for specific API calls.

Back in July, Ensim Corporation, a provider of solutions to manage, orchestrate, and automate private, public, and hybrid cloud infrastructure, had announced the release of Ensim Unify Cloud Manager, which enables service providers to leverage all of the functionality of the leading carrier-grade Ensim Unify platform to empower resellers and organizations to efficiently and securely offer a wide variety of cloud services including desktop, server, and application.
