Capris gives customers the option of synchronized BlackBerry^® email – a simple, hosted service, with low monthly fees. Give your staff real-time BlackBerry email, contacts and calendars – without the additional cost of an in-house BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES).

With a hosted BES, you get fully-managed BlackBerry service, and you simply pay a small per-user fee each month. BlackBerry hosting frees you from all hardware and software costs, plus the expense and time of setting up service. It also saves expensive BlackBerry server maintenance costs.

 

What is a ‘BES’? The BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES) is the software that must be deployed on a separate server in order to synchronize data between your email server and BlackBerry wireless devices. BlackBerry Exchange means that the BES is connected to your Exchange server, so email, calendars, contacts and folders are always accessible on a BlackBerry device. Deploying a BlackBerry email server in-house is an expensive and time-consuming process. It requires thousands of dollars in up-front investment, staff to maintain the server and software, and security updates and patches. That's why a hosted BES is the logical choice for companies who want the anywhere, anytime access provided by a BlackBerry email server, but don't want to spend the money or time it takes to deploy a BES in-house.

What is hosted BlackBerry? BlackBerry hosting means that the entire BlackBerry Exchange service is managed for you. It includes the BlackBerry email server, all set-up and ongoing management. With hosted BlackBerry, you just pay a low per-user monthly fee and everything else is taken care of. BES hosting allows you to give your staff anytime, anywhere access to their Exchange email, calendars, contacts and folders from their BlackBerry devices, without having to pay the upfront costs, hire additional IT staff or worry about software and security upgrades and patches.
