Fromdistance MDM device compatibility goes unlimited

Press release, for release on November 17, 2009

Fromdistance is proud to announce significant additions to device compatibility of its device management suite, Fromdistance MDM. On one hand native device platform support is enhanced; on the other hand, device management server’s database is opened for all kinds of devices for needs of asset management, inventory and group communications. Fromdistance offers open application programming interface (API) for 3rd party applications to interact with the database of Fromdistance MDM.

Besides the platforms already supported – Nokia S60 (including S60 devices from other vendors as well) and Windows (Mobile, CE, XP, Vista, 7) – native support for RIM BlackBerry is now made available. Furthermore, all kinds of devices can now be added to MDM Server’s device database: simple mobile phones, iPhones, printers, network routers – anything worth including to an inventory – free of charge.

“Our customers sometimes insert basic mobile phones to our system in order to send group SMS messages or configuration messages like Internet access points to them. There has also been demand for repository which could bring together assets other than just mobile devices and computers we support. Now, our partners and customers can freely add devices to our system”, says Jouko Vierumäki, CEO and founder of Fromdistance.

Devices can be inserted to and managed in MDM Server database through Web Service API, CSV files and a browser-based user interface. As MDM Server’s device database is expandable, it is possible to add custom fields to the database – inventory tag numbers, warranty expiry dates, service history etc.
