Capricode Accelerates Client Delivery for Smartphones - a New Client Factory in Hungary Enables Speedy Delivery Of SyncShield(R) Advanced Device Management



    Capricode, one of the world's leading companies in Advanced Mobile
    Device Management, has today announced a client for Symbian 9.0 S60
    3rd edition mobile phones. The client is the newest version of
    Capricode's SyncShield(R), an advanced mobile device management
    solution managing settings, applications and security on mobile
    devices. It enables the management of the devices centrally and
    silently Over-The-Air (OTA), enhancing both the security and
    flexibility of mobile device deployments.

    The Advanced Mobile Device Management features of SyncShield(R)
    bring significant benefits to service providers and enterprises by
    reducing the amount of money, time and other resources required in
    mobile device asset management and administration.

    SyncShield(R) is based on the Device Management standard of Open
    Mobile Alliance (OMA DM), a forum of over 200 key players in mobile
    device development, deployment and management. SyncShield(R) supports
    the OMA DM 1.2 standard, and introduces also an advanced feature set
    with functions that improve usability and security of mobile device
    management. SyncShield(R) supports over 93% of all smartphones sold
    globally today. The newest SyncShield(R) client brings these benefits
    available to Symbian 3rd edition smartphones, including new Nokia
    E-series business phones.

    To ensure agile delivery of new clients to upcoming smartphones
    and new platforms Capricode has established a client factory in
    Budapest, Hungary, in cooperation with Agil Eight.

    "Mobile devices such as smartphones are a necessity for today's
    mobile workers with their advanced applications, enhanced memory
    capabilities, and varying connectivity possibilities (WiFi, 3.5G,
    Bluetooth, etc.). However, this has substantially increased the need
    for support and security. Enterprises and end-users have an absolute
    requirement for mobile Over-The-Air mobile device management to deal
    with application administration and security threats, to the content
    and the privacy of the end-users and their organizations", says Jonny
    Kaarlenkaski, CEO of Capricode.

    There is a rapidly growing market for mobile device management
    solutions. "By the end of this decade the market for mobile device
    management is going to be huge", notes Kaarlenkaski. "Capricode has
    invested heavily on producing the best possible advanced mobile device
    management solution. SyncShield(R) utilizes state-of-the-art
    technologies and has advanced features that offer our customers unique
    mobile device management benefits."

    In order to respond to rapid changes in the device market and to
    provide speedy releases of new clients, Capricode has established a
    client factory in Budapest, Hungary. The client factory is a result of
    cooperation with Agil Eight. "The capability to deliver clients to the
    newest mobile device and platform versions before they even enter
    consumer markets is a significant competitive advantage. A key
    SyncShield's advantage is the agile delivery of clients for multiple
    mobile device platforms, such as Symbian, UIQ, WindowsCE and Linux.
    Capricode can offer a client for new devices and device platforms in a
    just few weeks" says CEO Jyri Pyrro from Agil Eight. "The new client
    factory will accelerate Capricode's agility even more" he continues.
    "We have found exceptional technical expertise and specialists in
    Budapest and this combined with its central location in relation to
    European markets this made it a great location for the client factory"
    Pyrro noted.

    Capricode presents the new client in 3GSM World Congress 2007 in
    Barcelona, 12-15 February. You will find us at Hall 2, Stand 2B93.
