14 DAY TRIAL // Nokia announced recently its intention to expand support within its Intellisync Device Management solution for managing Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync settings on the Nokia Eseries device range, starting from the Nokia E50, Nokia E60, Nokia E61, Nokia E62 and Nokia E70, based on S60 3rd edition and Symbian OS, and Windows Mobile 5.0 powered devices, such as Palm Treo 700W and Motorola Q. With the Intellisync Device Management solution, an IT administrator can now centrally configure and manage mobile email, calendar and contact settings on Nokia Eseries and Windows Mobile 5.0 powered devices over the air, without the need of manually configuring each device with the correct Exchange Server settings by employees and the IT help-desk.
Exchange ActiveSync is a Microsoft protocol for wireless push email and calendar/contacts synchronization between mobile devices and Microsoft Exchange server. The Nokia implementation of the Microsoft ExchangeActiveSync protocol is made through a device client called 'Mail for Exchange', developed exclusively for Nokia Eseries mobile devices. The Exchange ActiveSync settings management for Windows Mobile 5.0 powered devices utilizes the Intellisync Mobile Suite client. The Mail for Exchange solution enables the wireless synchronization of email, calendar and contact data from compatible Microsoft Exchange Servers.
Intellisync Device Management can be used for managing a company's business devices from the moment they are deployed until the end of their life cycle. The solution manages configurations and settings, application distribution, installation, upgrade and uninstallation as well as maintains security policies. Furthermore, a lost or misplaced device can be locked or wiped remotely.
Exchange ActiveSync support within the Intellisync Device Management is available starting this week.
