BlackBerry Professional Software will be available from now on, according to Reaserch in Motion's announcement. This is a new wireless communications and collaboration solution that works with the industry leading email servers and in order to meet the needs of small and medium-sized

businesses.

The BlackBerry Professional Software makes it possible for small and medium-sized businesses to improve communication and collaborate with an enterprise-grade mobility solution. This makes possible for user-friendly wireless access to email, organizer, Internet and intranet applications. All this brings advanced security and also takes into consideration the needs and limitations of the organizations.

Among the most important features that the BlackBerry Professional Software has to bring, there are also included the Small IT Footprint, support for Leading Email Systems and BlackBerry MDS (Mobile Data System) Support, for extending internal applications to mobile employees.

"Small and medium-sized organizations have many of the same business requirements for a mobility solution as compared with larger enterprises, but they often require more streamlined administration features", said Carrie MacGillivray, Senior Analyst at SMB Markets: Mobility. Moreover, "It has become increasingly important for smaller companies to be able to easily and cost-effectively deploy and manage mobile technology solutions in order to remain competitive and responsive to customers. An offer that combines a mobility solution with enterprise grade middleware, and an intuitive user interface, will resonate with this increasingly mobile segment", she also added.

BlackBerry Professional Software is priced at USD 500 for 5 users and USD 850 for 10 users. Either package can be expanded to support up to 30 wireless users with the purchase of additional standard Client Access Licenses (CALs). RIM also brings a special offer. Until November 30, customers who purchase any 5 new BlackBerry smartphones will be able to receive a fifth user BlackBerry Professional Software package for free.
