| Visto to Showcase 'WOW' at the Mobile World Congress Visto is again participating in this year's Mobile World Congress 2008 (formerly 3GSM World Congress), the mobile industry's largest event, taking place February 11-14 in Barcelona, Spain. Visto will showcase the Company's Walk out Working (WOW) feature and Visto Mobile, its mobile email solution, on a wide range of today's leading mobile handsets. Featuring Easy Setup, a simple automated process that installs and sets up mobile email almost instantaneously, Visto's mobile email solution enables mobile users to enjoy fast and immediate mobile access to all of their email, calendar, contacts and tasks. The Company also announces that T-Mobile International has selected Visto Mobile to power T-Mobile's Mobile E-Mail Pro, a broad based, easy-to-use push email service. Mobile E-Mail Pro from T-Mobile is now available in Germany and is expected to roll out across Europe throughout the year. T-Mobile's Mobile E-Mail Pro is well suited for use by all types of T-Mobile customers including consumers, prosumers and businesses. Visto Mobile 5.7 addresses the specific requirements of businesses, prosumers and consumers - extending the mobile messaging market to a broader audience by more tightly integrating its Visto Mobile Platform with leading portals and ISPs. Visto Mobile 5.7 includes a number of advanced features that enhance usability and offer even greater flexibility in managing information: • Easy Setup: End-to-end self provisioning with pre-installed clients, enabling mobile email users to set up their service from their device in a matter of seconds and "Walk Out Working" (WOW). • iPortal: A new presence enabled, web-based repository of contacts and calendar entries that can be accessed from anywhere at anytime and used for backup and restore. • iDAC: A desktop-based software that allows complete synchronization of MS Outlook/Outlook Express calendar and contacts between a desktop PC, the iPortal, and the user's mobile device • Smart Notifications: Intuitive messages automatically sent to the email inbox to inform users about service status, software updates and roaming. Flexible bundling options allow carriers to deliver targeted solutions that will address the unique requirements of their subscriber customers. Currently, Visto offers mobile email services through some of the world's largest mobile operators in more than 20 countries. Visto Mobile 5.7 also features expanded handset support for Java-based phones, including Nokia S40, traditionally not included in the smartphone category. The Visto Mobile platform is now compatible with more than 130 mobile devices worldwide, enabling mobile professionals to choose their handset. As advanced mobile devices continue to break down traditional barriers to mobile computing and communications,, users are expecting to use their mobile handset to access all modes of messaging including email, instant messaging, social networks, and blogs. As this growth accelerates, offering multiple point applications and experiences for each communications type will become confusing, complex and expensive to use and support. Mobile users will demand a simple, easy to use, unified experience to establish instant interaction while on the go. Visto enables mobile operators to address customer requirements while also establishing a new set of competitive advantages to be utilized in defense of an emerging dynamic of alternative ecosystems meant to own the user through the delivery of proprietary content and applications. Visto's advanced architecture provides an extensible solution to accommodate the ever changing dynamics of communicating on the Internet. By mobilizing and centralizing Internet communications while combining the unique value within carrier networks, Visto ensures our mobile operator customers provide a layer of average revenue per user (ARPU) enhancing content that differentiates their user experience. write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Computing News :: home page |
