Vodafone offers BlackBerry Enterprise Server Express to SMBs

Vodafone is to provide a new great value service for small and medium sized businesses to take advantage of BlackBerry Enterprise Server Express from as little as £10 a month. BlackBerry Enterprise Server Express provides Vodafone UK's customers with the ability to empower employees with secure access to email, organiser and other enterprise applications on the UK's best network. Small and medium business customers who sign up from May 17th for a three month period can get their BlackBerry Enterprise Server Express service from only £5 a month.

BlackBerry Enterprise Server Express works in conjunction with an organisation's Microsoft Exchange or Microsoft Windows Small Business Server to wirelessly synchronise email, calendar appointments, contacts, notes and more on a user's BlackBerry smartphone, meaning that small and medium sized business users can stay connected to their customers wherever they are and have the latest information at their fingertips.

Vodafone is also offering a managed support service for BlackBerry Enterprise Service Express. For only an additional £2.50 a month business users will get all the help they need to have their email up and running quickly, securely and cost effectively while also receiving ongoing support from BlackBerry Certified and Microsoft accredited specialist teams who are on hand 24/7. The dedicated team will continue to support them throughout the life of their contract.

Vodafone UK has proven a track record of supporting businesses of all sizes to install and manage email services on its fast and reliable UK network, ensuring customers are always connected with the necessary level of security for any mobile workforce.

Peter Boucher, Marketing Director for Enterprise at Vodafone UK, said: "We have strong established partnership with RIM and know it's vital for all businesses to stay connected to their customers wherever they are, either by voice or email. BlackBerry Enterprise Server Express offers small and medium sized businesses the advantage of being able to do all this from their BlackBerry smartphone with the peace of mind of 24/7 help from Vodafone on the UK's best network."

The BlackBerry Enterprise Service Express service is available on all Vodafone Business price plans. Also, from a one off cost of £400, Vodafone's Professional Services team will ensure a smooth set up process by a fully trained BlackBerry Certified specialist, either remotely or on site, and monitor the installation for 10 days before handing over to Vodafone's dedicated BlackBerry Enterprise Service Express support team.
