MHA are very excited about the official Microsoft release of mobile client's for Lync.
MHA have deployed Lync as a full hosted enterprise voice solution, and having an official Microsoft client on the mobile phone extends the functionality of the solution to the mobile work place.
Microsoft have released mobile Lync clients for iPhone, iPad,
Android, Windows Mobile 7 and Nokia (running Symbian).
The iPhone client turned up this morning in the Apple App
Store.
MHA are working over the Xmas period to deploy the necessary
updates and functionality to support the new mobile clients and
will send a notification out to all our current Lync customers in
the new year once we have fully tested the solution and built
documentation and installation guides for the different
versions.
The new Lync mobile client supports the much anticipated 'Call
via Work' function wich allows a mobile user to initiate a call
from the MHA Lync system from their mobile device, and then have
the Lync system call their mobile to bridge the call.
With the mobile carrier plans that include a low cost or free
local dialing number for the mobile phone, this truly provides the
ultimate end user experience from any phone system.
Via your iPhone or mobile device, initiate an international call
for example using MHA's low international calling rates and talk
for hours through your mobile device...

discuss in more depth how our Managed Lync and Managed Outlook
products can unify your communications and provide your mobile
workers the ultimate telephony and messagning platform.
