Whether for intranet or public facing internet site users can continue to collaborate and maintain access to SharePoint data (even when offline), business workflow processes, line of business applications, Business Intelligence and web content. Mobile Entrée is an extension to the SharePoint Solution Feature architecture. It is a browser based solution and supports iOS, Windows Phone, Blackberry, Android, WebOS, and Symbian devices (smartphones and tablets).

Performance management is one of the highest priorities in business intelligence for any organization. The Mobile Entrée BI offering scales from mobile-enabled self-service dashboards, using Excel, Power Pivot and Excel Services, to IT-developed dashboards, using PerformancePoint, providing a touch friendly experience that is easily navigated on smartphones as well as tablets.

Mobile Entree is Money Well Spent

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful
My company implemented Mobile Entrée (basic version) earlier this year (2010). Initially, we were impressed with how easy it was to install the trial version and get live in our development environment. We were able to configure our main corporate intranet sites in about a day using Mobile Entrée. Our executives were impressed with the “mobile application look” of our SharePoint environment and we went ahead and purchased the basic version. We immediately moved into beta for our corporate intranet which has been really successful.

The real value for us in terms of Mobile Entrée came when one of my developers tried the Enterprise version as a possible solution to mobile enabling our CRM solution (custom app). My developer was able to put up a proof of concept in about a week. We ultimately invested in the Enterprise Version of Mobile Entrée for all 4 of our SharePoint servers. The savings in development time more than offset the cost of Mobile Entrée Enterprise as we were able to connect it to existing CRM services. This project has been really successful for us so far. A Mobile Entrée version of our CRM is in “live-beta” and in the hands of our sales organization. This is in addition to a mobile version of our corporate intranet. So far, they have had nothing but positive comments for our initial custom CRM application and the SharePoint intranet.

The best investment to any SharePoint solution

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful
I have invested plenty of money in 3rd web parts and whatever would make life easier for my SharePoint users. We've all been there; difficulties with installation, no support, explaining to the CFO why the money invested has not shown any results.

I had some difficulty installing the product. Literally, within minutes of emailing technical support I had a response. Like K Chui (another reviewer)Moblie Entree's technical support identified an error in my sharepoint configuration (probably the same reason some of my other 3rd party solutions didn't work), assisted me in correcting the issue, and I was on my to installing the product. I can honestly say they went "out of there way" to ensure I was not only ready to install Mobile Entree but also that I was employing some "SharePoint Best Practices" that I was neglecting. I have never been so pleased with the attention I received as a customer.

Taking the leap into mobile SharePoint couldn't be easier to deploy and even easier to show ROI. I was able to show a clean, rich mobile solution in 30 minutes after installation (25 minutes of that was browsing myself in amazement). The hours of IT labor saved was astounding. The Basic version of Mobile Entree gives you a clean,yet rich interface that even the most challenged user can navigate easily. Our users were not only viewing list items and documents in minutes but were also adding list items and updating document properties even before and instruction or guidance on use.

I'm really hard on 3rd party SharePoint vendors because as we all know, most talk the talk but very few execute. Mobile Entree has set the standard for 3rd Party SharePoint features in mobile development and access.

If you want to finally show what SharePoint Mobile Computing is really like; If you want to impress your corporate execs and your everyday users, Mobile Entree is how you do it.

Mobile Entrée is great right out of the box

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful
I can confirm that the following statement is 100% true.

" an innovative and easy to use SharePoint mobile experience ... with no custom development, client-side code or separate server requirements."

Within a very short period of time, I have enabled our users to access the Sharepoint sites on Blackberries and iPhones.

The technical support is more than wonderful. They response to my emails quickly and they even spotted out mistakes in our Sharepoint Server configuration.

Highly recommend the product and the organization.
