All right. you have all heard about it. RIM is launching a SharePoint app for BlackBerry.
Yep, RIM handheld devices are going to be Sharepoint friendly. Here’s a list of features from Al Sacco‘s blog post (Microsoft SharePoint for BlackBerry App Finally Available) about it:
Document-based mobile collaboration for BlackBerry smartphones.
Securely check out, download, edit, upload, check in and send links to shared documents from anywhere in the world.
Add calendar events directly from a SharePoint calendar into your BlackBerry calendar, and add BlackBerry calendar appointments into SharePoint to stay in sync with team members.
Find content, edit documents and manage events easily, thanks to tight integration with core BlackBerry applications such as email, calendar and Documents To Go.
Secure and manageable for IT.
Leverages existing BlackBerry infrastructure and support, while providing robust and scalable mobile access to Microsoft SharePoint.
Allows users to work with Microsoft SharePoint content without repeated logins, thanks to NTLMv2 support.
Lets mobile users collaborate quickly on documents without emailing them or saving copies to their computers.
Provides trusted BlackBerry security and IT policies, and respects Microsoft SharePoint access controls.
That sounds very good and it will definitely improve the user experience for handheld devices. Now, about their PlayBook tablets: if only there was a robust Sharepoint for Playbook app somewhere? Oh well, I’ll keep trying to remember that one.
