Scalix Brings Enhanced Team Collaboration to Japan

TOKYO and NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - September 30, 2008) - Scalix, the award-winning Linux email, calendaring and messaging company, today announced the availability of group calendaring and scheduling features attuned to the way teams coordinate their workflow. A new "Overlay Calendar" feature in the Scalix Web Access (SWA) client makes it easy to organize events and appointments in multiple user and public calendars. A new "Calendar Planning Mode" view displays multiple calendars in a single planning sheet to facilitate team scheduling and resource allocation.

"The Japanese market is of tremendous importance to us, and we are especially grateful for the input from our Japanese users in helping to design and test our new group calendaring and scheduling features," said Andreas Typaldos, Xandros CEO. "When competing in a global environment it is critical to stay in touch with particular needs in various regions. We expect that users in other countries will find these to be valuable tools as well."

"The new scheduling and calendaring features are of particular importance to the Japanese market, where we pay close attention to the activities of team members in achieving our business goals," explained Motoharu Kubo, President of Scalix Japan. "With the latest Scalix release, high level managers can keep their schedules private while accessing those of other members of the team. Scalix users can also create, name and save custom calendar combinations, such as those for sales and engineering teams. In combination with external iCal support, these new features are especially flexible and powerful. For example, I can now overlay the Japanese holiday calendar with the event calendar for my industry to minimize scheduling conflicts."
