Weblicon's Mobile-Friendly Messaging And PIM
System Aims To Compete With MS Exchange
Weblicon Technologies AG
released
Calmeno, a complete messaging and Personal Information Management
(PIM) system for small to medium enterprises. Calmeno offers full mobile
access and over-the-air synchronization for
PDAs and SyncML-enabled mobile phones.
Calmeno features wireless access to corporate e-mail, calendar,
contacts and tasks anytime, anywhere and from any device. Contrary
to feature-overloaded competitors, Calmeno provides an extremely
easy-to-use interface tailored to small organizations.
In contrast to Microsoft Exchange, Calmeno is based entirely on
open industry standards such as IMAP, LDAP and SyncML, runs on
industry-strength UNIX operating systems and supports Windows,
Macintosh and Linux clients.
Carsten Brinkschulte, CEO and founder of Weblicon, positions Calmeno
aggressively against the competition: "Calmeno is the first PIM
system which is platform independent, truly based on open standards
and has full integration with mobile devices and wireless
synchronization. Our pricing is aggressive and the marketing muscle of
our partners will drive the product to market."
Calmeno can be accessed anytime, anywhere and from any device. Users can use a simple browser to access their
e-mail, calendar,
address book and to-do list. Best of all, they can send SMS messages
to contacts in the address book or activate SMS reminders for
appointments.
The advanced Java client runs on multiple platforms and supports
drag & drop like a traditional desktop application. Calmeno has
mobile access built-in from the start -- for example, users can
access their e-mail on the road using any WAP-enabled mobile
phone.
The popular Outlook and Outlook Express clients are seamlessly
integrated with the Calmeno synchronization software. In addition,
Calmeno supports bi-directional synchronization with popular Palm
and Pocket PC PDAs, so users can take their data on the road.
Because Calmeno's built-in synchronization server is based on the
open industry standard SyncML, users can even synchronize their
SyncML-enabled mobile phones such as the Ericsson T68 or Nokia
7650 over-the-air.
Calmeno is easy to install and in contrast to competing products
immune to widespread viruses targeted at Microsoft Outlook or
attacks against Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS). The
complete server can be installed in less than 30 minutes -- no client
software installation necessary.
