RIM BlackBerry Introduces BlackBerry Enterprise Server Express
RIM BlackBerry recently introduced BlackBerry BES Express, offering FREE server software and Client Access Licenses (CALs) while providing the basic accessibility, protection, and administration functions of RIM BlackBerry BES Server including wireless synchronization and mobile availability of files and programs. And the price savings don't end at free software and CALs. Customers now get the ability to choose the BlackBerry Internet Service wireless data carrier plan rather than the BlackBerry Enterprise Server wireless data carrier plan, which can save you up to $20 a month for every one of your RIM BlackBerry clients!
BlackBerry Enterprise Server Express can be installed directly on an Exchange or SBS server, which can handle up to 75 clients, or on a dedicated server which can support as many as 2,000 clients. RIM BlackBerry Enterprise Server Express is ideal for smaller organizations who until now couldn't afford connecting their workers' BlackBerry smartphones to their corporate IT system.
The Express version of BlackBerry BES does not offer high availability, system monitoring, mirroring, or desktop phone/PBX support and reduces the number of supported IT polices from 450 to 35. In addition, BIS BlackBerry smartphone wireless data plan users will be required to execute the first wired enterprise activation to integrate with the BES. Subsequently they will enjoy the full BlackBerry wireless email and personal organizer data experience including scheduling, address books, tasks, and notes. Those using the BlackBerry Enterprise Server data carrier plan can still enterprise activate their BlackBerry smartphones wirelessly.
