MXgroup™ extends full MX functionality across multiple locations, making separate offices appear as a single entity. Users at one location can communicate with users at any other location in the same way they communicate with users at their own location. The MX250 systems communicate with each other in an MXgroup configuration (with or without MXcluster™) over a WAN or the Internet with minimal bandwidth requirements. MXgroups are easily configured. No intervention is required by the users of the systems.

With MXgroup, up to 10,000 users within an enterprise can communicate with one another, regardless whether they are on different floors of the same building, in different cities, or in different countries. All MX systems in the group appear as a unified system, extending the features of one MX250 across the entire group. Each MX250 maintains a complete list of all users in the group and broadcast publishes this list to every user in the group. Users can see the presence (Available, In a Meeting, At Lunch, etc.) of any other user, regardless where that person is located. Users can also send Instant Messages to any user, regardless of the user’s physical location. All communication may be securely contained within the enterprise when MXgroup is deployed over the enterprise’s WAN, or the open Internet may be used to connect MX systems into a group configuration.
