It pushes new emails automatically to mobile professionals without any user interaction, and provides them with complete control over their desktop functions while away from their office, with all actions mirrored simultaneously on their desktop. The Smartner Duality solution can be affordably deployed in environments ranging from only one to thousands of users, thanks to an extremely easy installation process, data traffic management, and the support for a range of most popular mobile devices available, including the new Microsoft and Symbian phones. The solution is available as Smartner Duality through Smartner reseller channels, and also trough European operators as a white-labeled solution.

“The market opportunity for Smartner Duality worldwide is phenomenal. Smartner has already secured its place as the European market leader and I look forward to growing this position in the international marketplace,” said Thomas Chauchard, Executive Vice President Business Development, Smartner.
