Transend, a provider of email migration and conversion offerings, has launched Migrator for IBM Lotus Foundations, an edition of its email conversion utility. It is a client application for converting email data from any non-IBM email server or client to IBM Lotus Foundations Start and IBM Lotus Domino server.

According to Transend, the email conversion utility includes batch templates, which allow new Lotus Foundations customers to migrate mailboxes from products like Microsoft Exchange/Outlook or Novell GroupWise to Lotus Foundations one-by-one, or in bulk.

In addition, the new offering also provides both graphical user interface and a command line batch processor for automating the migration of multiple mailboxes from a central location. The new client application is licensed solely for the conversion of email data to Lotus Foundations.

Joshua Krefetz, VP of business development at Transend, said: “Transend understands that IBM Lotus Foundations Business Partners need to deliver reliable and cost-effective IT solutions to their SMB customers.

“To enhance efficiency, we included ‘batch templates’ that simplify the overall migration experience, while maintaining the same level of reliability and affordability that has helped Transend successfully migrate more than 10-million mailboxes over the last 10+ years.”
