"Comparison of RIM Blackberry 4.0 and Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0 with MSFP"
Posted by Raphael Salgado in "ARTICLE" @ 02:00 PM
"Wipro Technologies, a leader in the IT services and consulting industry, conducted a comparative lab based study of mobile platforms by benchmarking the Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0 Messaging and Security Feature Pack (MSFP) coupled with Exchange Server 2003 SP2 solution against the RIM Blackberry Handheld 4.0 and Blackberry Enterprise Server 4.0. Wipro conducted detailed testing of both environments in a simulated production environment and extrapolated the efforts and costs obtained from the lab environment to project the total cost of ownership (TCO) of managing each mobile platform in an enterprise production setting."
For IT departments and enterprises that are evaluating solutions for a more mobile workforce, this comparative study may be a helpful read. After the RIM settlement and the Microsoft marketing blitz, it's good to see some hard numbers that could help decide which way your organization can go when it comes to deploying the right mobile device for your needs.
