Business Impact

You will be able to illustrate the actual business impact of Windows Mobile-based solutions with case studies, such as the example below:

Getronics is lowering total cost of ownership (TCO), enabling more cost-effective administration, providing an extended IT infrastructure, and shortening the learning curve with Windows Mobile.

Helping companies derive benefits from mobile solutions is central to the mission of Getronics — one of the world's leading providers of information and communication technology solutions. For its own mobile email purposes, the company initially deployed Research In Motion (RIM) BlackBerry devices to 600 users, total. But when Getronics realized that increasing numbers of its 22,000 employees would need access to email and line-of-business (LOB) applications through mobile devices, the company looked for something more. Getronics wanted a mobile platform that would support additional users without putting additional strain on the IT department and budgets. Getronics is finding answers with Pocket PC Phone Edition devices and Smartphones running Microsoft Windows Mobile 2003 software.

“We are excited to help our clients achieve the benefits we have achieved in making the commitment to the Windows Mobile platform.”
