On the heels of October’s open beta, today Research in Motion (RIM) launched BlackBerry Business Cloud Services for Microsoft Office 365–a new service for organizations to extend Microsoft Exchange Online to BlackBerry smartphones.
The service ensures people have industry-leading business collaboration tools while on the go.
Some of the key features include:
- Integration within the Office 365 Administrative Portal for easy management
- Wireless synchronization with Microsoft Exchange Online email, calendar and organizer data from a BlackBerry smartphone
- BlackBerry Balance technology, which presents a unified view of work and personal content on a BlackBerry smartphone while keeping the content separate and secure
- An intuitive, web-based console for IT administrators to provision, manage and secure BlackBerry smartphones from anywhere
- Online access to employee self-service smartphone security functions, allowing users to easily reset a device password or remotely lock or wipe a device in the event of loss or theft
- BlackBerry security and encryption as well as device manageability
The service is available at no additional charge to current medium-sized or enterprise subscribers of the Office 365 suite or standalone Exchange Online and works with BlackBerry smartphones on business or consumer data plans.
