Hostopia Shows Love for Palm


SyncML-based tools allow wireless synchronization


Email    print   
February 1, 2008 —  Wireless mobility is a hot-button issue today, and sometimes the simplest data, personal information such as address books and schedules, can be the most crucial.

Hostopia, a provider of Web services for resale as well as direct consumption, does the manufacturers one better with the SyncML-based SyncJe, for synchronizing personal data such as calendars and contacts wirelessly, without the need for a USB cradle. Hostopia’s Nexthaus unit released a version of SyncJe for Palm OS on Jan. 3. SyncJe installs directly onto the device and offers an automatic synchronization scheduler.

Other platforms already served by SyncJe include devices such as Blackberry and iPhone, and enterprise e-mail platforms such as IBM Lotus Notes and Microsoft Outlook. Noted Hostopia CTO Dirk Bhagat in a prepared statement, “We believe we now cover the most popular devices and e-mail clients on the market.”

Hostopia plans to market SyncJe through three channels. Direct retail through online sales is one method, as is the company’s wholesale channel; Hostopia is also introducing a program, dubbed Nexthaus Resellers, that will allow systems integrators, telecom services providers and VARs to market SyncJe from their own Web sites while collecting a referral commission from Nexthaus.
