The SmarterMail Marketplace
The Marketplace offers businesses of all sizes, from small companies to enterprises, hosting companies to service providers, with a wide variety of integrations that can help expand their communications well beyond email. With integrations for essential tools like document collaboration, AI, cloud storage, conferencing, and live chat — and more being added — it's possible to create a true communications platform.
What Is The SmarterMail Marketplace
Put simply, it’s like an app store residing within SmarterMail that allows users to browse, enable, then use add-ons and integrations that expand the already rich feature set of SmarterMail. This functionality can include products and services such as cloud storage options, document collaboration, AI options, video conference and online meetings, and more. Each of these integrations are from trusted providers that will complement SmarterMail and extend your user experience.
Integrations are enabled by system administrators and managed by domain administrators. In some cases, users can add their own credentials and/or tokens and use their own third-party services (e.g., Google Cloud® or ChatGPT™ powered by OpenAI™.)
Expand Your Business
If you’re a web host or service provider that wants to build out a platform that mirrors what’s available from Microsoft 365® and Google® Workspace to help grow your customer base, the Marketplace can help.
If you’re an enterprise looking to move away from “Big Tech” and host your own set of essential communication tools with document collaboration, group chat, cloud storage, online meetings and more, the Marketplace can help.
If you’re a small to medium-sized business that just needs cloud storage and to set up your own document collaboration suite, the Marketplace and its growing list of integrations can help!
The key is that the Marketplace will offer the products and services a business wants, in addition to offering a variety of other options they may need.
Benefits of the SmarterMail Marketplace include:
- Customization: Take your pick from one or more trusted third-party tools and integrations across a number of different categories.
- Scalability: Grow the capabilities of SmarterMail just as your business needs grow.
- Seamless API Integrations: Custom integrations built using the SmarterMail API means incredible stability and reliability.
- Simplicity: We provide the tools, you simply enable them.
- Security: You control the applications and data, avoiding the potential risks of trusting others to the security of your most precious asset.
- Dynamic Additions: The Marketplace will continually grow, adding a variety of new tools, products, and services across several categories.
Trusted Partnerships and Providers
Another key advantage of the Marketplace is the ability to showcase partnerships that help you grow your business and improve your SmarterMail experience. A great example is our ongoing partnership with eM Client. Available on Windows and macOS, iOS and Android, eM Client offers deep integration with SmarterMail and serves as the only powerful alternative to Microsoft Outlook. Best of all, each new SmarterMail domain receives a free eM Client Business Pro license that can be activated on up to 3 separate Mac or Windows desktops.
In addition, the Marketplace offers a growing list of products from established providers to deliver seamless integration with essential communication tools. Notable integrations currently include:
- Cloud Storage: Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, ownCloud, LeitzCloud, and SmarterMail File Storage.
- Live Chat: SmarterMail Chat and RocketChat.
- AI Tools: OpenAI's ChatGPT.
- Document Collaboration: Collabora Online and OnlyOffice.
- Video Conferencing: SmarterMail Online Meetings.
The Future of SmarterMail
The SmarterMail Marketplace is constantly evolving. The overall goal is to bring together advanced productivity tools, AI-driven automation, and enhanced security features to improve productivity and help grow businesses. In addition, it’s a dynamic ecosystem that will regularly introduce new tools and features, giving businesses the flexibility to customize and scale their email and collaboration experience.
The best part is that SmarterMail can be a standalone component for all of your email and collaboration needs, just as it’s always been. Then again, it can be part of a larger communications platform built to accommodate your business needs or help provide users with an alternative to Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, or offerings from Zimbra and IceWarp.
