Nokia announced expanded support within its Intellisync Device Management solution for managing Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync settings on the Nokia Eseries devices, and Windows Mobile 5.0 powered devices. The Intellisync Device Management solution allows an IT administrator to centrally configure and manage mobile email, calendar and contact settings over the air, taking the burden of manually configuring each device with the correct Exchange Server settings off employees and the IT help-desk. This new capability will be an essential tool in large scale enterprise Exchange ActiveSync email deployments.
The Nokia implementation of the Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync protocol is 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.
The Intellisync Device Management solution is available for enterprises of all sizes either as part of an in-house corporate IT solution or as a hosted service from a service provider or a mobile operator. Intellisync Mobile Suite comprises Intellisync Wireless Email, Intellisync Device Management, Intellisync Application Sync, Intellisync File Sync and Intellisync Call Connect.
Exchange ActiveSync support within the Intellisync Device Management is already available (as of yesterday).
