Logotec Engineering Group announces its roadmap of mobile extensions allowing users to access their Microsoft Dynamics CRM information on Windows Mobile devices. The service enables Microsoft Dynamics CRM customers to quickly and easily generate a mobile version of their Microsoft Dynamics CRM implementation - no matter how extensively it is customized -- and access their information on Windows Mobile devices, either on-line or off-line with synchronization.
The service - Mobile@Connector for Microsoft Dynamics CRM - enables fully automatic creation of mobile versions of customer-specific Microsoft Dynamics CRM implementations. A free beta version of the service will be available from February 12, 2008, to May 31, 2008.
In its long-term roadmap, Logotec does not plan to offer the hosted solution itself. Rather, Logotec is seeking hosting partners interested in offering the solution to their local partners. Additionally, Logotec will allow all Microsoft Dynamics partners to offer the Logotec Mobile@Connector for Microsoft Dynamics CRM service as their own service to their customers.
The technology roadmap for Mobile@Connector runs alongside Microsoft Dynamics CRM Software + Service model. The service targets customers using the Microsoft CRM Live platform as well as Microsoft Dynamics CRM on-premise or partner-hosted instance, including versions 4.0 and 3.0. Windows Mobile 6.0/5.0 devices are supported. The device-specific adaptation is performed automatically.
You can synchronize on the fly, at your convenience, either wirelessly, WLAN (device dependant), or with any cable, docking station or mobile connection. It is developed with the world leading, Microsoft certified Mobile@Connector platform - you will quickly appreciate the mobility and autonomy given to your CRM data. The Mobile@Connector for Microsoft Dynamics CRM solution is offered as a service and does not require any IT expertise.
The process includes the following easy steps:
- the Logotec service remotely logs-in to the user's CRM server using the credentials via the official Microsoft Dynamics CRM web service API and analyzes the customer's Microsoft Dynamics CRM instance.
- a Microsoft Dynamics CRM user registers at Logotec's or a partner's website, and enters his MS Dynamics CRM credentials.
- based upon the analysis, the system creates a mobile solution that provides online and offline access -- including bidirectional synchronization -- to the customer's specific Microsoft Dynamics CRM installation. The user's rights and privacy are respected.
- the solution includes the customization for the specific Microsoft Dynamics CRM implementation, including: forms design, data structure, user rights, etc.
- the fully automatic process takes only minutes for both installation directly on the server and the deployment to the local device.
