Local Internet service provider Tiscali World Online has launched Mobisync, a software product designed for organisations which have a vision of enterprise-wide mobile technology integration. It is the ideal mobile data synchronisation and device management solution developed for use on most personal digital assistants (PDAs).
Mobisync securely connects a PDA through the GSM network and the Internet to corporate mail servers. Users then have full access to their mail, calendar, tasks, notes, contacts, documents and updates through their PDA - exactly as if they were in their office. With Mobisync, users don`t need to be connected to a PC with a dial-up modem or network connection to finish a day`s work. All they need do is simply dial in via their GSM handset.
"PDAs such as the Palm, Compaq IPAQ, Nokia 9210 and Motorola Accompli have become the standard way for executives and mobile workers to manage their lives," says Natalie Thayer, GM, portal division at Tiscali World Online. "However, they represent a real challenge, both for remote workers who need to stay in synch, and for IT managers, who are concerned about security and centralised operations."
Mobisync makes business executives and mobile workforces more productive and efficient, with the convenience of being able to access and synchronise office information remotely and securely.
"Mobisync can be customised to suit a variety of business needs, access a variety of data stores and, with minimal development, be transformed into a company-specific business application," says Thayer.
Because security is a major threat in the mobile world, and an issue of primary concern to users, Mobisync operates through companies` firewalls, maintaining security and integrity during all server sessions. No hackers or other unauthorised people can gain access to the information.
"The ability to work through the firewall, and the fact that our offering allows users to download information, work offline and upload that information later, are critical features that differentiate this solution," says Thayer.
The launch of Mobisync ties into a mobile data strategy that allows Tiscali World Online to offer users access to all information, all the time, anywhere and from any device. It is the first step in the company`s drive to offer a comprehensive solution suite based on its ability to combine voice and data communication solutions, delivering a holistic communication solution over fixed telecommunications and mobile infrastructures.
