USA /UK, 9th May 2006 - The adoption of CommonTime’s mSuite wireless Lotus Notes mobility solution has been a resounding success for Elstree based Bio Products Laboratory (BPL) a not-for-profit organization, with 500+ employees, wholly owned by the British Government.
BPL needed a mobility solution to allow it’s…
- Executive team to be more productive, enabling them to receive and answer emails on the move - including receipt of alerts from other systems
- Sales team to access to their email out in the field - including alerts from other systems
- IT Team to be able to offer support out of working hours
Offering wider device coverage, both cradle-sync and wireless push email, with a minimal learning curve for end users, BPL found mSuite easier to use than other packages, Intellisync and EasySync, ensuring a faster route to productivity. mSuite offered a flexible future-proof wireless email solution, specifically engineered for Lotus Notes.
Established as an organizational standard, mSuite’s functionality and robust nature offered BPL the solution it was looking for. “Once we knew it was working and our pilot was up and running, we had a large number of people requesting them!” - Nitin Patel, Bio Products Laboratory
"It really was a successful project, made easy by the software working and as CommonTime used the same model as Domino there was no need for huge training or understanding curve to go through. People who travel as part of their roles can now pick up email - anywhere in the world and we've done this without a huge cost to the business."- Doug Morton IT Manager, Bio Products Laboratory
"The mSuite project has met all the key business objectives including providing the end-users especially the remote staff, the mobility and flexibility of Email/Calendar access and successful implementation of the project within the budget and timescale."- Nitin Patel, Bio Products Laboratory
Nitin Patel, BPL IT Department, explained the reasons behind BPL choosing CommonTime’s products:
- “we chose mSuite for its ease of use and setup”
- “mSuite was competitively priced compared to other solutions”
- “mSuite uses same model as Lotus Notes Domino”
- “CommonTime focus on designing solely for IBM Lotus Notes Domino, not trying to shoe horn a MS solution. “
- “PDA/mobile network independent – BPL could choose most appropriate devices and networks for our organization”
- “straight-forward, simple system, with good security and excellent admin functionality”
- “good security - the "kill all" which is important as some data is sensitive”
mSuite is the way forward!
