The NotifyLink Enterprise Mobility Solution provides Over-the-Air synchronization of Email and PIM thus freeing users from the requirement of cradling their wireless devices in order to maintain synchronization. The NotifyLink Enterprise Mobility Solution provides "Scheduled Push, Direct Push, and SMS Push" notification eliminating the need for users to initiate a data session in order to retrieve their personal data. With NotifyLink, all Email and PIM information will be stored safely behind an organization's firewall while all delivery of information to and from the wireless devices is encrypted utilizing either the TDES or AES encryption algorithms. NotifyLink provides maximum flexibility for the IT professional while minimizing complexity, providing multiple internal user groups with a robust solution over multiple devices and/or wireless networks.
