WebEx to launch 'Exchange' on demand
WebEx on Tuesday is planning an SMB-focused services launch that will include a hosted offering designed to give small companies a sort of "virtual Exchange server," including calendaring, database apps and the ability to build content databases, and online meetings.
The services are rebranded and enhanced versions of Intranets.com offerings (WebEx completed its acquisition of Intranets.com in September).
The new services will be aimed at small businesses and individual users, according to Subrah Iyar, WebEx CEO.
In addition to the "virtual Exchange" offering, WebEx will introduce a new service targeted at individuals. That service will be a lightweight screen sharing offering designed to make it very easy to launch a meeting from an e-mail message or from within an IM chat window, according to the company.
The services will also shake up typical WebEx pricing models. The services will offer different price points including unlimited minutes packages.
