Microsoft Corp. and TenDigits Software Inc. announced an alliance to deliver full-featured mobile access to phones using Windows Mobile and Research In Motion's BlackBerry devices for Microsoft Dynamics CRM.

MobileAccess 4.0, developed and distributed by TenDigits, will extend rich-client access to Microsoft Dynamics CRM for users of Windows Mobile and BlackBerry mobile phones. Organizations will have the choice and flexibility to meet the requirements of their users with the on-the-go Microsoft Dynamics CRM.

Users will also have access to Microsoft Dynamics CRM functionality while offline.

Microsoft Dynamics is a line of financial, customer relationship and supply chain management services. Delivered through a network of channel partners providing specialized services, these integrated, adaptable business management services work like and with Microsoft software to streamline processes across an entire business.

TenDigits develops and markets software that extends enterprise applications to wireless handheld devices.

MobileAccess 4.0 may be administered within Microsoft Dynamics CRM rather than with multiple servers, which helps minimize IT management overhead and setup.

It will be available for Microsoft Dynamics CRM customers on both Windows Mobile phones and BlackBerry devices in the third quarter.

MobileAccess 4.0 increases the range of offerings available for mobile users of Microsoft Dynamics CRM, which includes CRM Mobile Express and Microsoft System Center Mobile Device Manager 2008.

CRM Mobile Express is accessible on any HTML-compliant mobile phone with an Internet connection.

Microsoft System Center Mobile Device Manager 2008 provides over-the-air management of Windows Mobile phones and security-enhanced access to corporate data behind the firewall.
