MobileAccess 4.0, developed and distributed by TenDigits, will extend
rich client access to Microsoft Dynamics CRM for users of Windows Mobile
phones and Research in Motion (RIM)-based BlackBerry mobile phones. This
solution gives organizations the choice and flexibility to meet the
requirements of their users while giving them anytime, anywhere access to
Microsoft Dynamics CRM. It also provides access to Microsoft Dynamics CRM
functionality while offline to help fuel the productivity and
responsiveness of remote employees and partners.
MobileAccess 4.0 may be administered within Microsoft Dynamics CRM
rather than with multiple servers, which helps minimize IT management
overhead and setup. This solution will be available for Microsoft Dynamics
CRM customers on both Windows Mobile phones and BlackBerry mobile phones in
the third quarter of 2008.
"We're pleased to work with Microsoft to empower more mobile work
forces with access to Microsoft Dynamics CRM," said Sean Gocher, president
and founder of TenDigits. "Hundreds of customers are already using
MobileAccess to open up Microsoft Dynamics CRM capabilities to mobile
phones, and we share Microsoft's vision of delivering solutions that give
organizations the very best technological and business fit for their
individual needs."
"MobileAccess provides offline access to Microsoft Dynamics CRM and
helps organizations achieve fast time to value, reduce IT costs and
increase mobile worker productivity," said Brad Wilson, general manager for
Microsoft Dynamics CRM. "This alliance extends the power of choice to
organizations by giving mobile users access to customer data when and where
they need it."
MobileAccess v4.0 augments the range of offerings available for mobile
users of Microsoft Dynamics CRM, which includes CRM Mobile Express and
Microsoft System Center Mobile Device Manager 2008. CRM Mobile Express is a
thin client solution accessible on any HTML-compliant mobile phone with an
Internet connection; an updated version for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 will
be available in beta in the third quarter of 2008. Microsoft System Center
Mobile Device Manager 2008 provides over-the-air management of Windows
Mobile phones and security-enhanced access to corporate data behind the
firewall.
