MCI Consultants today announced that an updated version of Cnectd, its locally developed cross-platform messaging application for mobile devices, is now available for download from the Apple Store, the Android Market and BlackBerry App World.
“The new version includes some significant enhancements,” commented Greg Bernard, Partner at MCI, “for instance, it allows messaging in real-time on a one-on-one basis or in groups. The new version also took cognisance of feedback that we received from users of the initial product.
“Other new features include the ability to create an account using a Facebook login that automatically allows Facebook friends to be added as contacts,” continued Bernard. “In addition, the purchase of a Cnectd licence allows the user to invite two others to join for free; and, of course, the new version is faster and more reliable, as one would expect.
“We had over 1.2 million users of Cnectd using the initial version of the product, and I expect this new version to be even more popular,” concluded Bernard.
Cnectd is a cross-platform messaging application for mobile devices that provides real-time messaging with push notifications, so that users are able to keep in touch with family, friends and colleagues without paying the costs of SMS text messaging. Cnectd enhances the messaging experience by providing functionality such as delivery and read receipts, as well as media-sharing capabilities. Its advanced group management and chat functionality makes it easy to chat with many contacts at once. Cnectd is an award-winning platform designed specifically for mobile devices and is powered by a purpose-built, highly robust, cloud-based server.
