Kampala, Uganda: MTN works with the world’s finest vendors of state-of–the-art technologies to deliver world class service to you. MTN has now partnered with BlackBerry, the leader in wireless communications solutions, to offer you a service that helps you stay in contact and in control everywhere you go.
E-mail has become a key mode of communication in today’s business world while the business executive increasingly spends a lot of time away from their desks in meetings or traveling from one place to another. All of this “away time” can be utilized productively with the BlackBerry service from MTN.
BlackBerry service from MTN consists of a BlackBerry mobile handset integrated with software at the customer’s premises that enables users to access a range of data and communication services. The service allows you to stay in contact on the go synchronizing access to your office e-mail, calendar, task manager, address book and 3rd party business applications. Incidentally, the BlackBerry handset is also a phone, able to make and receive calls, send and receive messages and surf the internet.
You can read and respond to your important e-mails, create and manage appointments in your calendar, look up contacts in your corporate server and phone address book, schedule and manage tasks and access your business applications. All this is made possible through an “always on” connectivity on MTN’s high speed GPRS/EDGE network using a unique “push” technology. You do not need to be in the office or to initiate log in to your office – your e-mails and organiser events will be “pushed” straight to your handset.
Furthermore, the Blackberry service automatically synchronizes your mailbox, contacts, calendar and tasks between your Blackberry handset and your desktop office application, ensuring that you are constantly up to date in your office environment.
BlackBerry from MTN is a true end to end secure solution that helps you to make the most of your busy work day, keeping your business associates satisfied through timely response. You can depend on BlackBerry from MTN at all the important communication moments of your business
