iAnywhere releases software for Microsoft Smartphone but it is not AvantGo client July 12, 2004 [MS Smartphone] | By Edward J. R. At the exhibition of the latest TechEd conference (i.e. TechEd 2004 Europe) we have visited stand of iAnywhere and learned about solution for Microsoft Smartphone - XcelleNet Afaria - not AvantGo though! The very rude woman who was standing on the stand - when asked about AvantGo ... .... totally didn't know what we are talking about and she just said "I am from XcelleNet - company that was bought by iAnywhere, I have no idea about AvantGo". Yes, she didn't have any idea about AvantGo and iAnywhere still boycotts Microsoft Smartphone, as far as AvantGo client is concerned - 2 years after commercial release of this platform.

"Smartphones have the capacity to hold substantial amounts of critical - often proprietary - data. However, their small size makes them susceptible to loss or theft. Enterprises must leverage the benefits of smartphones and counter the threats they may expose by implementing an effective device management and security framework," said Joe Owen, vice president engineering, XcelleNet Products, iAnywhere. "Security Manager for Smartphones extends iAnywhere's leadership in both managing and securing the broadest array of enterprise mobile devices with a single solution." XcelleNet Afaria Security Manager for Smartphones is the first enterprise solution to provide the centrally managed, policy-based security solution required by enterprises. From the same administrative console that delivers management capabilities, enterprises can define, deploy, and enforce security policies that control the following:
