Good Technology has announced that its GoodLink and GoodAccess wireless enterprise applications will support Nokia’s upcoming line of Nokia Eseries business-optimized devices running the Series 60 3^rd edition software platform and Symbian operating system.

The combination of Nokia’s slim, connectivity-rich enterprise devices, the world’s most popular smartphone platform, Series 60, and Good’s award-winning, enterprise-class wireless messaging and corporate application platform will provide mobile business users with all the applications they need over a secure, manageable infrastructure relied on by more than 7,000 corporations worldwide, the companies say. GoodLink will first support the Nokia E61, and availability will coincide closely with device availability. 

"As a worldwide leader in enterprise mobility, our customers expect nothing short of a trusted, highly secure platform for mobilizing corporate applications including and extending beyond email on industry-standard platforms. This is why we’ve chosen Good Technology as a key strategic partner.” said Scott Cooper, vice president, mobility solutions at Nokia’s Enterprise Solutions business group. "Our new family of business-optimized devices running GoodLink and GoodAccess will deliver the award-winning user experience that our combined Fortune 1000 customers have come to rely on, backed by end-to-end security, robust IT management capabilities and Good’s trusted SLA.” 

Good will bring its consistent GoodLink user interface, currently available on Palm and Windows Mobile and named 2005 Editor’s Choice by both PC Magazine and Network Computing, to Symbian, the world’s most broadly deployed mobile operating system with nearly 60 percent market share worldwide. As the foremost provider of Symbian-powered devices, Nokia’s industry-leading design, connectivity and carrier reach deliver compelling device choices to enterprises making long-term investments in handheld computing.  

Mobile enterprises that rely upon systems such as Microsoft Exchange, Salesforce.com CRM, Siebel CRM OnDemand, Oracle Application Server 10g, Cisco and Avaya Unified Messaging systems, and, in the future, IBM Domino and Novell Groupwise, among others, will be able to securely mobilize their mission critical applications with the powerful combination of Nokia’s Eseries devices, GoodLink and GoodAccess. The increasing number of enterprises with heterogeneous carrier, device and corporate backend environments can take advantage of GoodLink’s consistent end-user and IT experience to control TCO even as their handheld computing deployments scale.
