NASHUA, N.H., Sept. 3, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- With the
introduction of Jabra Xpress – an industry first – IT Managers can
now remotely deploy, update and manage devices from one location
with a web-based interface. Jabra
Xpress is standard feature when purchasing Jabra headsets.
Unlike previous methods of deploying headsets, which involved a
user or IT professional manually installing software on each
computer, Jabra enables mass deployments of software or individual
settings from a central location. Jabra
Xpress integrates seamlessly with Microsoft standards
creating less of a headache for the end user IT team because it
leverages the strength of the Microsoft platform.

The benefits of using Jabra
Xpress:
- Remote deployment saves time
As an industry first,
Jabra Xpress eliminates time
consuming, annual deployment of headsets. Studies show that an IT
professional can manually deploy no more than 50 headsets a day.
For a company with 1,000 users, this translates into an 8-days
deployment process. With Jabra
Xpress, that company can remotely deploy the same 1,000
headsets in half a day*.
- Unlimited deployment of many devices at once
Whether
it is 50 headsets or 5,000 or more, Jabra
Xpress allows IT departments to remotely deploy a virtually
unlimited number of devices at one time. Xpress is based on
standard Microsoft technology (MSI/WMI) and compatible with all
leading deployment systems, including Microsoft System Center
Configuration Manager (SCCM).
- Easily adds new features and functionality
With
Jabra Xpress, IT departments can
remotely add new and future features and functionality to their
users' headsets. IT professionals can easily deploy Value Packs,
which add new product features, or Service Packs, which enhance
existing features. Customers receive both free of charge.
