Kerio Connect Links Apple iPad to Business Communications
The latest release of Kerio’s messaging server delivers integrated groupware to iPad users.
Kerio Technologies, Inc. has announced that Kerio Connect 7, the company’s messaging and collaboration server, natively supports the Apple iPad. Kerio Connect now enables users to access email, calendars, and contacts on the new iPad, expanding the choice of mobile devices for business use. Kerio will be showcasing the integration of Kerio Connect and the Apple iPad at Interop 2010 in booth 544 at the Mandalay Convention Center in Las Vegas from April 27 to 29.
With Kerio Connect, iPad users can synchronize their email, contacts, and private calendar, search the global address book (GAL), manage invitations, and perform a remote wipe, all using Exchange ActiveSync. Users can also easily access shared and global calendars with the integrated CalDAV support.
“The beauty of Kerio Connect and the new iPad is that they work together seamlessly [to give] users a cool work experience, and IT managers can immediately integrate iPad support because our development team has designed it to be intuitive,” says Kat Marquez, director of product marketing, Kerio Technologies.
Kerio Connect includes distributed domain clustering for IT management of a single domain supporting multiple branch offices. The latest release also has a newly implemented CardDAV protocol to synchronize contacts with Apple Address Book.
