The service is expected to launch within a few months.
The new 1&1 mobility solution uses OpenXchange for collaboration capabilities, including contact and calendar management. 1&1 chose Funambol for its mobile email and PIM feature set for the mass market, source code transparency and low cost. By using Funambol software, 1&1 says it will differentiate its offerings and mobilize its email user base while attracting new customers for its affordable email services. "After thoroughly researching the market for push email services, Funambol proved to offer the solution we were looking for," says Andreas Gauger, 1&1 chairman of the board. "We believe in the success of software as a service and Funambol's open source-based solution delivers on both our business and customer needs. We look forward to making this mobile service available to our customers soon." Service providers such as 1&1 are increasingly selecting open source-based software to provide mobile services. Earlier this year, Funambol announced an agreement with EarthLink and anticipates more will follow, generating a wide range of new low-cost mobile email and related services for the mass market. | Reads: 1018 | Category: General | Source: TheWHIR : Web Host Industry Reviews
