“To stay ahead of the competition, small businesses need the same tools readily available to bigger corporations, without compromising their small business agility,” said Patrick Gilbert, president and CEO, 4SmartPhone. “It is our intention to provide the best mobility service for small businesses that larger enterprises already enjoy. With Palm and Microsoft onboard, we’re excited to see the Growing Business Kit take off.”
The complexities and costs involved with implementing in-house hosting require a significant investment of both time and money for small business owners. The Growing Business Kit is designed to improve small business productivity and reduce total cost of ownership. The Growing Business Kit is comprised of:
• Palm Treo smartphones on America’s leading wireless carriers: Alltel, AT&T, Sprint and Verizon Wireless
• Managed wireless services such as device replacement insurance
• Help desk for any customer service requirement or question
• The benefits of Hosted Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 without the cost of buying a server
• Option to add SharePoint server hosting which allows for file sharing and collaboration
• Access to messaging applications such as Microsoft Office Outlook Mobile and information workers need when away from the office, as well as enhanced security features to help protect sensitive information with Windows Mobile 6
“I’ve got a laptop at work, computer at home and my Palm Treo 750,” explained Mike Miller, president of Empire Title Agency of Arizona, who has been a 4SmartPhone customer for several years. “We don’t have an Exchange Server at work, but because of 4SmartPhone, I have access to my emails, contacts and calendar just like big businesses do which saves me and my employees both time and money.”
“The Treo’s ease of use, combined with Hosted Exchange from 4SmartPhone and the power of Windows Mobile gives small businesses a familiar messaging and collaboration experience when they’re on the go,” said Gerardo A. Dada, director of marketing, Microsoft Corp. “By deploying this solution, users can access all of their critical information, from e-mail to contacts, anywhere at any time from their PC or Windows Mobile phone.”
