New Aton Connect For Windows Mobile Helps Execs, Sales Pros, Service Teams and System Admins Make Sales, Support Customers and Browse Enterprise Servers From Smartphones
Two new versions of Aton Connect for Windows Mobile software help enterprise and mid-sized companies give employees access to the mission critical data they need to be more productive. These latest editions provides SSL security using the Microsoft Security Framework built into the newest Windows Mobile phones. The tiny (640KB) software client installs on the phone and communicates with enterprise servers using the company's existing terminal emulation infrastructure. ROI is very fast because implementation does not require SOA or new middleware.
Los Altos Hills, CA (Issues Wire / PRWEB) April 3, 2008 -- Aton International, Inc., Trusted Resource for Mobile Device Applications, Enterprise Data Access and Embedded Systems, today announced the release of Aton Connect for Windows Mobile Professional and Aton Connect for Windows Mobile Standard, Version 8.1 allowing enterprise system users a more secure way to access critical information from Windows Mobile phones.
Both versions of Aton Connect for Windows Mobile access corporate data from IBM System z (mainframes), IBM System i (AS/400) and Unix/Linux enterprise servers for use in sales, customer service, system administration, transportation, retail and manufacturing. Unlike "web-to-host" applications which require an Internet server to deliver data to the phone's web browser, Aton Connect software is totally contained on the phone.
Aton Connect works with a company's existing infrastructure to access data directly from enterprise servers using terminal emulation. The tiny software client (640 KB) displays that information on the users phone in a "green screen" format very similar to the one on the user's laptop or desktop. There is no new server software to buy. It is not necessary to modify programming on the enterprise servers themselves. This makes Aton Connect for Windows Mobile a very low cost, quick to implement option for meeting data needs outside of the office.
"Microsoft Windows Mobile has a very high level of security built into each phone. This security framework has been independently and rigorously tested. Aton Connect for Windows Mobile utilizes this Microsoft Security Framework to offer SSL / TLS security between your Windows Mobile phone and your mainframe TN3270, midrange TN5250 or Unix/Linux server using VT220. This is end to end encryption from the instant of connection. All passwords and data transferred between your phone and your enterprise server are encrypted enroute. This encryption is independent of and in addition to other encryption that may be provided by your wireless carrier. Aton Connect also provides compatibility with IPSec and SSL VPN clients provided by Cisco, SonicWall, BlueFire Security, Juniper Systems and others. We are pleased to offer this much needed level of security to our customers" said Charles Wilde, CTO and Founder of Aton International, Inc.
Ease of use features include full screen mode, full terminal emulation soft keyboard on touch screen phones, keyboard shortcuts for non-touch screens and "on the fly" session switching which allow the user to access both host server and corporate intranet or the Internet without having to exit a program. An incoming phone call will send the user's data session to the background where it is easily retrieved once the phone call is over.
The company offers two versions of Aton Connect for Windows Mobile to accommodate the wide range of phones that use the Windows Mobile operating system including touch screens such as Palm Treo 700wx and Sprint Touch and non-touch screen Smartphones such as the Motorola Q and AT&T BlackJack.
Both versions are modest in price at $36 USD per device making small deployments very affordable for IT system administrators, sales teams, field service teams, college and university administrators and others who want real time access to enterprise data at a very low cost. Enterprise licenses are also available from the company.
