smart phones

GroupWise customers are invited to register for an online pre-release sneak peek web seminar of Omni Mobile's enhanced GroupWise collaboration features.

"With Omni Mobile Version 2.4, Omni is responding to GroupWise customer requests for more than basic PIM synchronization," said Trevor Poapst, Director of Global Marketing and Channel Strategy for Omni. Omni Mobile's enhanced GroupWise mobile client continues to add native GroupWise features. Advanced GroupWise users will appreciate support for GroupWise Query Folders. GroupWise Document Management System users will be excited about being able to access their documents from their mobile device. With Omni Mobile 2.4, that master contract or other important file in your document store is just a click away."

Poapst continued, "Omni Mobile provides more than just PIM synchronization - it provides a complete on-line and off-line GroupWise caching client for mobile devices. Its native GroupWise look-and-feel leads to quick user adoption and high user satisfaction. Omni Mobile's server module installs on customers' existing Novell NetWare, Linux or Windows servers."

"By adding GroupWise Query Folders, Document Management System support and full account on-line searches, Omni continues to add to the value-added experience of its enhanced GroupWise mobile messaging client support," said Aldo Zanoni, CEO and Managing Director for Omni. "GroupWise customers appreciate GroupWise for more than just email, calendaring and address books. Advanced GroupWise users appreciate the value of the full GroupWise collaboration experience. And that's what Omni Mobile provides. And it continues to get better. Future releases will include on-line Proxy Access and on-line Calendar Busy Searches - two of the most often requested enhancements."

"In addition to an enhanced GroupWise experience, Omni Mobile customers appreciate the simplicity of Omni Mobile and the fact that it installs directly on their existing GroupWise WebAccess server. Unlike other GroupWise wireless email solutions that provide PIM synchronization, Omni Mobile does not require a Windows server as the mobile gateway. Omni Mobile delivers a unique and substantial value proposition because it leverages customers' existing GroupWise investments in Novell NetWare, SUSE Linux or Microsoft Windows servers. There are no additional firewall configuration requirements, no additional protocols to configure, no external databases to manage and no additional backup, anti-virus or server patching requirements."
