IPD NOW Cloud: Ferrari electronic and IP Dynamics expand cooperation

The Hamburg-​based IT ser­vice provider and soft­ware man­u­fac­turer IP Dynam­ics offers its solu­tions not only on premises, but also from the cloud or as a hybrid solu­tion. The IPD NOW Cloud makes it eas­ier for users with­out their own vir­tu­al­iza­tion envi­ron­ment to access a wide range of com­mu­ni­ca­tion appli­ca­tions. For tamper-​proof doc­u­ment exchange in the cloud, IP Dynam­ics relies on the Office­Mas­ter Suite from Berlin-​based UC man­u­fac­turer Fer­rari elec­tronic.

The IPD NOW Cloud is part of the IPD NOW offer­ing from IP Dynam­ics, which includes cloud ser­vices as well as host­ing and holis­tic con­sult­ing. All solu­tions, from VoIP and col­lab­o­ra­tion to the con­tact cen­ter, can be pro­vided via the IPD NOW Cloud – as a full cloud or hybrid solu­tion. Thanks to the flex­i­bil­ity of the cloud, the holis­tic ser­vice pro­vided by top trained con­sul­tants and the XaaS approach, IP Dynam­ics is able to imple­ment each project indi­vid­u­ally and accord­ing to the needs of the cus­tomer. This hap­pens regard­less of whether company-​internal sys­tems are out­sourced or soft­ware solu­tions from IP Dynam­ics are used.

IP Dynam­ics imple­ments the tamper-​proof doc­u­ment exchange in the IPD NOW Cloud via the Office­Mas­ter Suite from Fer­rari elec­tronic. It con­nects the exist­ing email sys­tem with var­i­ous com­mu­ni­ca­tion chan­nels such as Next Gen­er­a­tion Doc­u­ment Exchange (NGDX), SMS or voice­mail to form an intel­li­gent and secure uni­fied com­mu­ni­ca­tions solu­tion – and in this way also brings the com­mu­ni­ca­tion clas­sic fax into the cloud. Doc­u­ments are sent to the recipient’s email inbox in their orig­i­nal, encrypted, end-​to-​end and, above all, legally com­pli­ant PDF for­mat.

The IPD NOW Cloud is oper­ated in two redun­dantly designed data cen­ters in the greater Ham­burg area and meets all the legal require­ments of the GDPR. To pre­vent con­tent from being read or inter­cepted, Fer­rari elec­tronic uses an inter­play of asym­met­ric and sym­met­ric encryp­tion for the trans­fer of doc­u­ments, which encodes both the doc­u­ment and its trans­port route. This means that doc­u­ment trans­fer via the Office­Mas­ter Suite also meets the high­est secu­rity stan­dards.

Stephan Leschke, CEO of Fer­rari elec­tronic: “Holis­tic solu­tions in the field of cor­po­rate com­mu­ni­ca­tions are equally impor­tant to Fer­rari elec­tronic and IP Dynam­ics. We are all the more pleased to be part of the IPD NOW Cloud and to fur­ther expand our long-​standing, good coop­er­a­tion with IP Dynam­ics. The bundling of our exper­tise in the area of uni­fied com­mu­ni­ca­tions is a win-​win for all involved.”

Vladimir Ped, Head of Uni­fied Com­mu­ni­ca­tions at IP Dynam­ics, is also enthu­si­as­tic: “Fer­rari elec­tronic has been a reli­able and com­pe­tent part­ner for many years. The close coop­er­a­tion enables us to jointly offer cus­tomers flex­i­ble solu­tions with­out bureau­cratic obsta­cles.”
