Delivers Secure, Device Agnostic Mobility Services To Enterprises
On-Demand
MILFORD, Conn.–(EMWNews)–Top rated hosted eMessaging service provider and Perimeter
eSecurity subsidiary, USA.NET, announced today their Unified
Mobility Platform (UMP) now also includes the latest iPhone
2.0 SDK to deliver secure, device agnostic mobile messaging services
to enterprises on-demand. Enterprise employees are now free to
select the device of their choice and have it fully integrated with
their Hosted Microsoft
Exchange implementation, making it easy to accommodate business and
personal needs via a single device. With UMP enterprises can now satisfy
technology populists without the costs associated with deploying new
platforms, service upgrades, employee certifications and providing 24X7
support for multiple devices. Unlike in-house business
email systems that often need to limit mobility choices to reduce
the total cost of ownership and minimize complexity, USA.NET’s
email hosting
customers enjoy the ability to select the device that best suits
their business needs and lifestyle, and do so on a user-by-user basis.
“With all of the challenges IT organizations
face supporting mobility there isn’t a one
size fits all device or platform,” Doug
Howard, Chief Strategy Officer, Perimeter eSecurity and President,
USA.NET. “Gone are the days when enterprises
could dictate what platform their employees will use. CIO’s
are feeling pressure to support numerous devices such as the iPhone and
at the same time to apply consistent governance policies across the
enterprise. UMP facilitates this by applying an audit trail for
archiving emessaging, ediscovery, patch management, etc. within an
industry leading environment of layered security and regulatory
compliance.”
Up until now CIOs have had to grapple with a myriad of devices that
generate platform conflicts, security issues and support nightmares
while facing a user population of device evangelists who refuse to
standardize. USA.NET’s UMP eliminates the need
to understand intricacies of different messaging architectures such as,
ActiveSync, Good™ Mobile Messaging and
BlackBerry® Enterprise Server. This SaaS
offering is supported by 50 pre-integrated IT security and eMessaging
archiving services from parent company, Perimeter eSecurity, and
implements corporate governance and security policies compliant with the
Federal regulations such as Sarbanes Oxley, GLBA and HIPAA.
According to Michele Pelino’s July 2008
report titled Demand
Insights: Enterprise Mobility 2008 from Forrester Research, “82%
of firms report that they support more than one device type —
and it’s only going to get worse. With Technology Populism —
the phenomena of employees bringing consumer technology to work and
demanding to use it — employees are already
asking, and will continue to ask, to use their favorite personal device,
such as the iPhone, at work to access email and other corporate
information.”
“Few hosted emessaging service providers
possess the years of experience in supporting multiple devices on a
unified platform or the ability to leverage direct partnerships with
Microsoft and BlackBerry/RIM to offer best of breed integrated services,
all within the context of a comprehensive security environment,”
said Sara Radicati, President & CEO, Radicati Group. “A
cost effective software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution such as UMP enables
IT Depts. to benefit from the latest upgrades and integrations without
impact to their IT infrastructure, risk profile or support framework.”
UMP integrates the newly released iPhone 2.0 SDK with ActiveSync®
for Windows Mobile® devices and with
BlackBerry® Enterprise Server, Good™
Mobile Messaging, and other leading handheld device management software.
All handheld devices will be able to access all of Microsoft
Exchange’s rich, productive and secure
mobile features, including always-synched wireless email, calendars,
contacts and more. All of this comes with USA.NET’s
award winning 24X7X365
support and with the ability to remote kill a device anywhere and at
any time. The latest features include:
-
Secure Push email, contacts, calendar events and more
-
Global Address List (GAL) support
-
More security than IMAP / POP3 functionality
-
Ability to view Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF, JPEG, and
iWork attachments exactly as designed
