Hosted BlackBerry Services: The Right Fit for Your Business?

Smart businesses carefully manage their money. If your company has been using BlackBerry® Internet Service and thinking of upgrading to the collaboration and calendaring tools afforded by the BlackBerry® Enterprise solution, the transition could cost less than you think. Instead of investing in your own BlackBerry® Enterprise Server and support staff, you could hire a hosting company on a fixed, regular rate. This transition could save money for any company, but is ideal for companies already using or contemplating hosted services for Microsoft® Exchange® as well.

We recently spoke with two organisations using Hosted BlackBerry services and their service providers. In this article, they discuss why they chose this solution, including cost savings, uptime and flexibility.
