OS X Server

Product Overview

Bring the power of collaborative instant messaging to your organization. With

Messages Server, users can transfer les securely, share a persistent chat room,

conduct an audio conference, or even broadcast a presentation, movie, or photo

slideshow to other people using Messages with Mountain Lion.

Group Collaboration Made Easy

Messages Server works with OS X to automatically populate users’ buddy lists with

members of the groups to which they belong, so it’s easy for them to start communi-

cating. And thanks to store-and-forward functionality, Messages Server allows users

to send messages to buddies who are online, combining the advantages of instant

messaging and email.

Messages users can request Messages Server to create and host a persistent chat

room. Perfect for virtual-team scenarios, project-specic discussions, and real-time,

blow-by-blow updates, the chat room allows individuals to join at any time, leave

when they need to—even log out and shut down—and still come back to review

all communications from the time the chat room opened.

Messages Server

Standards based

Messages Server uses the Jabber instant

messaging protocol. Also known as XMPP,

the Jabber protocol enables support for Mac

computers using Messages, as well as for other

Jabber clients on iPhone, iPad, and PCs.
