I mean how do you manage a server from a 2� LCD? It takes 5 minutes to pan down to the start button and then you have to pan all over the place to do anything. Crazy!! From: Jim Majorowicz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 29, 2008 11:35 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Blackberry question Sorry for the confusion. I was thinking of an even smaller version they don’t have any more (I think they called it Executive or something, that was free, stripped the MDS Integration and was specific to SBS only). I’m not familiar with RDP clients. None of my customers have that need from their phone. Professional would be fine for your needs especially if you install it on a machine separate from your exchange. That way upgrading to Enterprise when the time comes is just a matter of changing the registration key.

Specifically, one of my questions was whether there was an RDP client for BB, and Malcom answered that there was, and there was no need for VPN because of the MDS connection. So are you saying that I wouldn’t be able to RDP if I use the Professional? We do not run SBS here, and never will. But I’d rather not spend for the Enterprise if I can do the same stuff with Professional. Right now we have maybe 10 WM users, and if we went to BB, they would be moved over to BB. I can’t foresee ever needing more than 30 licenses.

If you are planning on ever deploying more than 30 phones or not in an SBS environment or want MDS, you should always just go with Enterprise on its own box, even if it’s just an old used PC. From: Martin Blackstone [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 28, 2008 7:08 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Blackberry question I’ve noticed that as well. I would never ever install BES directly on my Exchange server.

Here is a product comparison. http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/professional/#tab_tab_compare Professional is essentially for smaller deployments. It’s like BES SBS. It won’t support over 30 BB devices. From: Joe Heaton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 28, 2008 12:07 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Blackberry question Can anyone tell me how the Blackberry Professional Software stacks up against BES? I’m being asked to give a comparison between the WinMobile devices we’re using, and Blackberry devices. If the execs decide to go with Blackberry against my recommendations, I’d prefer to go with the Professional software, if it will meet our needs. I’m looking at the Blackberry website currently, but would like to hear personal, real world experiences, vs. the sales info on the site.
