Mobile Messaging & Remote Working
Love it or Hate it, Mobile Messaging is changing the way we work for good. With the wide variety of Smart Phones and Blackberry devices on the market coupled with the much improved data transfer rates of 3G mobile networks, mobile messaging is no longer the preserve of senior executives in large organisations.
Bitopia are experienced in the installation and maintenance of Blackberry Enterprise Server and configuration of Blackberry Handsets, however we ourselves use Microsoft Activ-Sync which can be easily configured on any Microsoft Exchange 2003 or 2007 server (including Small Business Server 2003).
Blackberry have been very successful in their marketing to the extent that many business people believe that the only way to get live push e-mail on the go is through the purchase of a Blackberry handset.
One of the major drawbacks with Blackberry is the cost.
With Microsoft Activ-Sync any business that operates a modern Exchange Server (2003 or 2007) can purchase any one of a number of compatible handsets that will work on their existing mobile network.
Bitopia recommends the 'HTC Touch Dual' handset (pictured above right), which is available on any network. It is a stylish handset with a full size touchscreen and many useful features including an trendy 'iPhone' style interface for flicking through the various menus and options.
