With over 3.3 Billion mobile phones and 214 billion emails exchanged worldwide in one day, products that intelligently extract content and reduce email noise are vital as mobile workers struggle to stay above water. According to the Radicati Research Analyst Group, demand for mobile messaging is growing at 108% annually, as of early 2008.   We are often asked how someone can get enterprise email on a mobile phone. There are a number of ways to do this. You could buy a Blackberry Enterprise Server (BES) and Blackberries for everyone. This may be a bit expensive at $200 plus/device, a $70/month service and the price of the BES. Other users actually forward their enterprise email to personal accounts like Gmail, Yahoo!, etc. This is a very bad idea and defeats the whole purpose of enterprise security and the compliance efforts of your CIO. The other option is to look for a mobile email enterprise server for mobile phones, which would turn most common mobile phones into a low cost Blackberry.   A number of products could fit this bill.   Amika Mobile is one company whose products enable high value services focused on saving time and money for the enterprise by delivering vital mobile content as needed to end users. Amika Mobile products convert the ubiquitous SMS-enabled mobile device into a low cost Blackberry cell phone by delivering the essential message from the desktop email into a simple SMS message designed to ideally fit the wireless micro screen.  Amika Mobile’s team is recognized as pioneering the delivery of key content to any mobile phone independent of carrier, messaging platform or mobile device.  Our email-to-SMS and IP solutions are patented, unique and highly cost effective. The Amika Mobility Server™ in either Enterprise or Service Provider Editions delivers critical email alerts to any mobile phone thereby extending the reach of valuable mobile capability to all users, not just those with expensive SmartPhones, such as the Blackberry or iPhone. This means that all SMS phones can become low cost Blackberry cell phones with Amika Mobile’s technology. So, to pick between services, you need to decide what is important: Do you want everything to the desktop on the phone as you get with Blackberry? Do you just want the critical messages? Do you just want the headers? Do you just want messages from certain people? Do you just want key points? It then becomes a tradeoff between the cost of SMS packets (typically one can only have 10-12 words in it) for a penny or more or getting the full email? My advice would be to pick a service that is free and that allows you to get the key points of the email without all the threads. This will typically take up 1 or 2 SMS packets saving you lots of pennies!   The good news is that you can get this TODAY on YOUR PHONE without buying an expensive phone or PDA with Amika Mobile!     Amika Mobile's team is recognized as pioneering real-time wireless email and Internet content analysis solutions.
