IntelliSync has been chosen by Novell to provide real-time wireless push email and personal information management (PIM) for Novell GroupWise customers worldwide.
The wireless messaging technology from IntelliSync will be embedded into Novell GroupWise 7. According to Jeff Hawkins, Novell vice president of product management for Linux, open source platforms and services, "With IntelliSync, GroupWise customers worldwide will have secure access to their collaboration resources from virtually any device, on any platform, in any region of the world."
Clyde Foster, chief operating officer of IntelliSync, claimed that, "by integrating IntelliSync leading wireless email and PIM platform directly into the GroupWise platform, we can help Novell customers connect and synchronise nearly any mobile device to their Novell GroupWise accounts and eliminate the need for third-party mobile middleware to enable true push wireless email."
Novell will launch a beta program starting in January. Customers with current maintenance agreements will be able to take up the new wireless and third-party integration features at no extra cost as soon as they become available in the first half of 2006.
