There is a lot happening in the world of Hosted Apps. I guess the use of the word “apps” is now widely acceptable on Main Street. Apps for Rent is the model to follow. Apple has the App Store , Research in Motion, the maker of BlackBerry, has App World, and Palm Pre already has a million downloads from its App Catalog. Not to forget, Google Apps.
We welcome the new excitement about the mobile apps. Push e-mail is a killer app that built BlackBerry. Hosting service providers offer BlackBerry Enterprise Server hosting with our hosted Exchange plans. Other platforms offer easier synchronization with Microsoft Exchange. The new iPhone OS 3.0 allows separate Exchange sync for calendars and contacts.
According to Apple’s site, the new Snow Leopard OS and Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 works better together.
“Now with Snow Leopard, the Mac has out-of-the-box support for Microsoft Exchange Server 2007, something even Windows PCs don't have. There’s no need for time-consuming installations or complicated configurations. You set it up and, like so much else on the Mac, it just works. Instead of using Outlook to access Exchange services such as email, calendar invitations, and Global Address Lists, you’ll use Mail, iCal, and Address Book.”
Apple’s Mac OS Leopard offer greater interaction making Apple a contender in the corporate market. Of course, Windows Mobile OS that runs many smart phones was designed to sync well with Microsoft Exchange using ActiveSync. While the mobile push email market is still not saturated, we are just getting started in the expanding universe of Apps.
