The Kurmi Provisioning Suite has been updated to support the latest Microsoft and Cisco cloud technologies.

Both Kurmi Provisioning Suite solutions, Kurmi-as-a-service (KaaS) and on-premise, now support the Microsoft Graph API and Webex Calling Multi-Tenant (MT).

The company believes that enabling workers to use these technologies is “crucial” as companies and service providers transition to the cloud.

Bruno Guirardel, VP of Products at Kurmi, said: “Today, enterprises are facing a multitude of administration challenges when it comes to managing digital workers, which include on-premises to cloud migration, multiple vendors, new security challenges, multiple system, and hybrid management.

“Kurmi simplifies this complexity and allows automation of recurring tasks.

“With the addition of support for Webex Calling MT and the Microsoft Graph API, we are now able to support enterprise customers in the challenges they are facing in 2023 and into the cloud future.”

The Microsoft Graph API was designed to complement its PowerShell interface. The updates to the Kurmi Provisioning Suite allow for integration with both of these tools.

All aspects of provisioning, from user creation to more complex management issues, can now be managed via Kurmi’s solutions. As well as reading, updating, and deleting users and groups in Azure AD, it can also manage user profiles, password resets, and group memberships.

The suite lets enterprises optimise Microsoft License Management to take better control of their consumption and save money with smart audits.

Enabling Azure Graph API adds a powerful and scalable toolkit for companies to manage Azure AD authentication services with Kurmi.

Cisco is growing its cloud delivery model with Webex Calling Dedicated Instance, Cisco Unified Call Manager with Platform-as-a-Service delivery, and Webex Calling Mult-Tenant as a Software-as-a-Service model.

As the Kurmi Provisioning Suite supports both on-premises and cloud delivery options, its integrates well with Cisco’s native tools, such as its Control Hub for managing user bases through staged migrations across various Cisco technologies.

While Control Hub deal specifically with monitoring and alerting on Webex Calling MT, Kurmi provides provisioning, management, and automation capabilities for all Cisco platforms, including cloud, hybrid, and on-premises. It also offers tools for data protection, audits, and security.

Kurmi will be exhibiting its products and providing free migration consultations to discuss challenges in unified communications at Enterprise Connect from 27-28 March 2023 in Orlando Florida.

Founded in 2011, Kurmi Software designs products for businesses and managed service providers to automate and manage unified communications and contact centre solutions, including video conferencing, telephony, email, messaging, endpoints, licenses, and more.

Kurmi’s solutions are compatible with popular unified communications platforms, such as Microsoft, Cisco, Zoom, and Avaya.

In December last year, Kurmi expanded its partnership with Microsoft, entering into a global go-to-market co-selling agreement to increase the uptake of Kurmi’s Unified Communications Administration solution.

The previous month, November 2022, Kurmi released Kurmi Provisioning Suite Version 7.8 to make it easier to deploy and manage unified communications technologies from Microsoft, Cisco, and Avaya.

Micah Singer took the reins as CEO at Kurmi in October 2022, in a move that signaled the company’s intent to expand internationally.
