Nokia Business Center provides businesses with mobile email, meaning that by accelerating the spread of mobile email, all employees can use the corporate email system, anytime, anywhere. Nokia Business Center complements Nokia's portfolio of popular email solutions for existing business mobile devices.

Nokia Business Center will initially integrate with Microsoft® Exchange Server 2003 on the Nokia 9300 smartphone, Nokia 9500 communicator, and Nokia 6630, Nokia 6680, Nokia 6681, and Nokia 6682 phones, then Nokia-certified It will also support Lotus Notes® and Domino® on a wider range of devices.

 

"Companies' management and IT departments must keep several criteria in mind when choosing the right mobile e-mail application, i.e. it is easy to use, easily integrated with the existing infrastructure, and results in cost savings. With the Nokia Business Center, they can easily find a solution to these challenges and get a scalable system that meets their needs," said Dave Grannan, head of the mobile email group at Nokia Enterprise Solutions. "With the help of Nokia Business Center, the company's employees can access their work e-mail on the go, and companies can provide mobile applications in a cost-effective manner and with the application of strict security systems."

 

The standard Nokia Business Center client uses the push e-mail service (read-only mail without separate download) and can be used to write, read, and delete e-mail, manage local folders, and work offline with state-of-the-art security. The standard client supports English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish. In addition to all the features of a standard client, the professional client offers email with a rich, graphical interface similar to a desktop email program. Additional features of the professional version include handling appointment appointments, sorting by different categories, full support for attachments, but you can search for any employees in the corporate phonebook, search for local folders, and many other features.

 

"Today's "mobile" professionals need continuous access to their e-mails and the company network; and it's part of our job to provide them with the best possible tools for this," said Jorge Reis, vice president of Telstra International. “Nokia's latest development illustrates the company's competence in providing high-tech wireless applications. Telstra Inc. has been supporting and building solutions for Nokia for a long time, and we are very happy to participate in this new project as well.”

 

In order to ensure email security, Nokia Business Center uses a shorter data transfer based on direct communication between devices instead of the "store and then forward" method used by most mobile solutions. Nokia Business Center also offers end-to-end encrypted data transfer, storage, and network synchronization.

 

"Nokia's strong product portfolio is extremely compelling," said Gene Signorini, director of the Wireless and Mobile Enterprise Solutions business at Yankee Group. "By providing a wireless e-mail solution, the company can enter the market with a truly outstanding offer."
