Why Windows Phone 7 Is Too Late
18.05.12
Yet, as Microsoft touts Microsoft’s Windows Phone 7 as offering a full desktop-like experience, can the company again win over mobile business users?
What Does Microsoft Offer?
The workforce is becoming increasingly mobile. With so many businesses using Microsoft systems, workers need to access these systems from afar. Microsoft makes this possible with some key tools.
Microsoft Lync , an updated version of Office Communications Server, takes care of the communications needs. Lync provides group chat, Web conferencing, and software-based VoIP. Microsoft Sharepoint allows secure remote access to business data, which can be viewed and edited by Microsoft Office Mobile, the smartphone version of Microsoft’s cloud-based Office 365 collaboration suite. To prevent private business documents from being copied, edited, forwarded, or saved, the new Windows Phone 7.5 OS supports Information Rights Management (IRM) protection.
What About the Competition?
