ABOUT INTELLISYNC ANYWHERE

Intellisync Anywhere has redefined the business role of mobile computing devices by making them powerful, cost-effective, and tightly integrated extensions of the corporate enterprise. Intellisync Anywhere is a powerful, server-based software solution that provides remote and LAN-based synchronization of groupware-based e-mail and PIM data between mobile devices and Microsoft Exchange or Lotus Domino. With Intellisync Anywhere, users can securely connect from the road via dial-up to a private network modem, or they can connect from "down the hall" by placing a handheld device into any cradle on the corporate LAN. Because Intellisync Anywhere is server-based, there is no need to leave office PCs powered up or continuously logged on, eliminating a clear security risk.
