HyperOffice has launched HyperSynch, a new service built into HyperOffice Collaboration Suite which brings very e benefits in a market which already has MobileMe, BES and MS Exchange, and would especially appeal growing businesses.
Pankaj Taneja explains the benefits as being:
- HyperSynch pushes and synchs emails, calendars, contacts and tasks to 1700 mobile phones (iPhone, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, Nokia etc) unlike services like MobileMe which limit you to a single device and telecom provider
- Is completely online and doesn’t require you to install server based software like MS Exchange or BES (or BES Express)
- Allows synching with MS Outlook without MS Exchange (a true “exchange for the rest of us”)
- Allows you to share mobile calendars, contacts, tasks and synch group information with your teams mobile phones, rather than just manage personal info
- Includes all the online collaboration features of HyperOffice optimized for mobile browsers
- Costs only about $10 for everything, which is almost half of what many email hosts charge merely for mobile messaging services.
HyperSynch supports bi-directional synchronization between mobile devices and desktops, plus backup and restore capabilities for contacts, calendars, tasks and notes, using multiple protocols, including SyncML, ActiveSync, OMA, IMAP. SMS, XML and WSDL. The push engine supports TCP/IP, CTP and CMS to Microsoft Outlook and other email clients. It registers and provisions devices and services, including billing and account management systems.
