Further information:
UCS features user, group and rights administration, an integrated IP management (DNS, WINS, DHCP), file and printer services. UCS is ideal for positioning services or applications on the cloud. It allows the simple, secure integration of cloud-based applications with established administration procedures. The included tool Univention AD Takeover allows the simple migration of a Microsoft Active Directory to UCS via the integration of Samba 4. The component Univention App Center provides further Univention solutions based on UCS, such as Univention Corporate Client (UCC), a centrally managed client operating system. The App Center also provides numerous Open Source products from third-party manufacturers, such as the groupware solutions Zarafa and Open-Xchange, the backup solution "SEP sesam", the document management system agorum®core, the customer management solution "SugarCRM" and the dropbox alternative "owncloud". All the software available in the Univention App Center is seamlessly integrated in UCS and can be easily installed and uninstalled with a few mouse clicks.
