It`s cheers all round for Enterprise Connection`s mobile solution

Johannesburg, 23 Apr 2003

It`s considered a technology that changes the way you do business. Mobile Synchronisation first burst onto the South African scene late last year and is fast proving its place and potential. So much so that a major international liquor giant has now appointed Enterprise Connection the task of improving its professional communication.

Essentially, Mobile Synchronisation works to accelerate information exchange. Utilising existing IT infrastructure, Enterprise Connection`s Mobile Synchronisation System (MSS) enables companies to extend information beyond the desktop, and offers immediate access, online and offline, regardless of the physical location.

Quite simply, a company is able to make fast, more informed decisions and prove far more productive and competitive because of it.

For this very reason, some major corporate customers in SA have trusted Enterprise Connection with the responsibility of improving this important aspect of their business.

"No two companies are the same," says Johan de Villiers, Director of Enterprise Connection. "Our customer`s needs and expectations are quite unique. They briefed us on particular scenarios that needed our attention. And it`s these scenarios that required complete understanding if we were to design and devise effective Mobile Synchronisation Systems and solutions."

Having expanded significantly into eastern markets, liquor export and brand managers have been travelling overseas quite extensively. They need to have easy and effective remote access to relevant information. Be it access to an Internet device or access to essential information via mobile devices such as notebooks and PDAs. A personal information management system needed to be implemented.

Enterprise Connection provided the customer with the software to implement this system. The software allows for e-mail access, file transfer and the central management of all users.

"Enterprise Connection first devised a pilot site which would allow the customer to thoroughly test the system," said Pieter Bekker, account manager of Enterprise Connection. "And we certainly put it through its paces. We firmly believe that this Mobile Synchronisation System is the best possible solution for their remote access needs. For this reason Enterprise Connection was appointed to roll-out the project."

The installation comprised the setting up of the synchronisation server, which synchronises e-mail and files for transfer, as well as system training to the 20 executive users on both notebooks and PDAs. Unlike other synchronisation software packages available, Enterprise Connection`s MSS software supports both devices.

Utilising both Bluetooth and cell phone technology, Enterprise Connection`s innovation is fast improving executive time management, decision-making and access to important information. Creating a viable and competitive-edge and putting corporate customers in a prime position no matter where they are in the world.
