January 28, 2008 - CEZEO Software Ltd. updates LanTalk NET, a fault-tolerant peer-to-peer instant messaging and emergency notification system, with additional business features.

Inter-Office Instant Messaging and Emergency Notification System for business

The requirements for information security of corporate customers are a great deal stricter than the demands of a home user. An occasional message may contain sensitive information that, if slipped to the Internet, may cause all sorts of damage from bad public relation to declined stock prices. While firewalls and antivirus systems certainly reduce the risk of an attack from the outside, the instant messaging systems such as ICQ, AOL, MSN or Yahoo messengers, are simply not designed to secure sensitive information. One just cannot configure a home-user messaging system to conform to the strict corporate security policies.

LanTalk NET effectively replaces the Internet-based instant messaging systems and eliminates the security threats associated with messages traveling outside of your local area network. Messages sent and received with LanTalk NET travel across your corporate LAN or VPN, never leaving the premises and never exposing a single bit of information to the outside world.

Why Corporate Users Choose LanTalk NET Over Free Internet Messengers?

LanTalk NET eliminates the possibility of a security breach from outside of your network. All messages sent and received are securely transferred within the local network and never leave premises of your organization. Unlike general-use instant messengers such as ICQ, AOL and MSN Messenger, LanTalk NET does not use Internet as a carrier, and does not even employ a centralized controller to route the messages. Instead, all information is delivered directly to the recipient with no middlemen.

By not using the Internet, LanTalk NET is infinitely more robust than any Internet-based instant messenger. Even if there is no connection to the Internet, LanTalk NET will still operate on the LAN, and will send and receive instant messages and notifications. LanTalk NET is designed to be fault-tolerant, and uses peer-to-peer exchange of messages. The direct delivery of instant messages means that there is no centralized server, and therefore no dependency on server uptime or availability.

The ability to send multicast messages over the local area network enables LanTalk NET users to send messages or emergency notifications to thousands of recipients with a few mouse clicks. A quick message that is pre-defined with a template can be invoked, send and delivered to thousands of users in a matter of seconds.

LanTalk NET is developed from the scratch to satisfy the needs of a corporate user. The ability to restrict LanTalk NET users to receive-only or reply-only modes eliminates unwanted chatting and improves employee productivity when used in a production environment.

If LanTalk NET does not satisfy the demands of your company, CEZEO are happy to tailor LanTalk NET to your demands by making custom modifications to the product.

LanTalk NET v. 3.3 runs under Windows 95/98/Me/NT4/2000/XP/2003/Vista, and costs $17.95(US) per user for up to nine users, with deep multi-user discounts and site licenses available. You can download a free 21-day trial version from the company's web site.
