DiVitas Extends Mobile UC Client Offering to Include Android, Blackberry, iPhone and Desktop

Nov 05, 2009 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- DiVitas Networks, a provider of Mobile Unified Communications (Mobile UC) solutions, announced that it is the first solution to offer Enterprise Social Networking on all commercially-available mobile smartphones, including its new web client support for the Android, Blackberry and iPhone, as well as a desktop soft client.

DiVitas said it made its solution available on Nokia Eseries and Nseries and select Windows Mobile smartphones in May 2007. Last month, DiVitas announced its support for additional Windows Mobile smartphones through its collaboration with Samsung. With today's announcement regarding Android, Blackberry and iPhone, DiVitas achieves availability of its solution on all commercially-available smartphone platforms.

DiVitas mobilizes the existing deskphone number to provide business voice on a smartphone. Furthermore, DiVitas integrates business voice with IM and social-networking applications such as Status and Mobile Presence, which includes a person's availability, location and network. DiVitas accesses contacts directly from the organization's LDAP directory to provide one-click access to any member within the secure community directly from the smartphone interface. This means all applications within the DiVitas solution - voice, business number, and social networking - leverage this integrated directory.

Individuals within the secure community (colleagues within the organization) can check one another's availability (via Mobile Presence and Status) in order to make more intelligent communication choices, for example, choosing to call or IM depending on a person's stated preferred mode of contact.

DiVitas further noted that its web client for Android, Blackberry iPhone and desktop bypasses the need for end users to download client software from mobile-phone vendor stores, avoiding accidental downloading of incorrect and incompatible software versions. IT or service providers will continue to maintain version control over the DiVitas web client. Clicking the DiVitas icon on the phone's native screen launches the most current version of the DiVitas Client from the IT or service provider controlled server. The DiVitas Server supports both the new DiVitas web client and the DiVitas native client simultaneously.
