WebMessenger, an award-winning leader in enterprise mobile

communications, today announced that its WebMessenger Mobileâ„¢ for Microsoft Office Communications Server (OCS) solution now supports

Nokia smartphones leveraging the S60 mobile platform from Symbian.

platform can extend the same functionality to mobile professionals

stimulating previously unattainable collaboration worldwide and

throughout Europe, where Nokia S60 devices are a leader in the

enterprise market. WebMessenger Mobile for Microsoft OCS on Nokia S60

devices will be on-display this week at the S60 Summit in Barcelona

Spain, in the Nokia booth. "The European business market is in need of

mobile unified communications solutions," said

Mark Blowers, Enterprise Architectures Practice Director for Butler

Group. "Nokia S60 smartphones have achieved

excellent penetration in the region. With the adoption of Microsoft OCS

in Europe also increasing, there is the potential for European

businesses to enhance productivity among the growing distributed mobile

workforce. " Microsoft OCS manages all real-time (synchronous) communications

including instant messaging, VoIP, audio and video conferencing.

Microsoft OCS also powers presence, a key benefit of Microsoft unified

communications that unites all the contact information stored in Active

Directory with the ways people communicate. WebMessenger Mobile for

Microsoft OCS extends similar functionality to Nokia S60 devices

enabling mobile professionals to achieve the same collaboration and

productivity opportunities in the field that they experience in the

office. Additional benefits include reduced operational expenses and

increased workplace appeal for tech-savvy, younger recruits.
