"Thanks to a collaborative relationship with our long-time partner Research In Motion, BoxTone is one of the first enterprise-grade software vendors to complete the BlackBerry Enterprise Server version 5.0 certification process," said Alan Snyder, CEO, BoxTone. "And we did it the right way, via the BoxTone Advanced Performance Lab, which uses rigorous methodologies, industry best practices and customer and partner input. The big winners are BoxTone clients, who can enjoy all of the powerful new features in version 5.0 without any interruption in the comprehensive management and monitoring our software provides."

BlackBerry Enterprise Server version 5.0 brings key new enterprise capabilities including the new BlackBerry Administration Service (BAS), new high-availability BlackBerry service, new over the air (OTA) BlackBerry smartphone software upgrades and an improved application deployment process. BoxTone continues to work closely with Research In Motion to capitalize on the current and future features in version 5.0 while helping its many clients and prospects execute the migration process.

"BoxTone dramatically simplifies any mobile messaging migration, such as the migration to BlackBerry Enterprise Server version 5.0," said Brian C. Reed, BoxTone Vice President of Products. "Specifically, BoxTone gathers the key the information needed before, during and after a BlackBerry Enterprise Server migration to maintain high Quality of Service (QoS) for the BlackBerry environment, ensure high BlackBerry smartphone user satisfaction and help make the transition as seamless and low-risk as possible."

The best practice migration process starts with baselining end-to-end performance and mobile quality of service, along with inventorying the environment (devices, servers, accounts, configurations, dependent infrastructure, etc.). With data at hand, an incremental migration can begin while leveraging BoxTone to continuously monitor performance, proactively alert as issues develop and enable rapid response (by service desk, operations, and messaging teams) to the service issues that may occur.

After the migration has been completed, the organization can benchmark the before and after baselines to validate service quality and then continue to optimize performance over time.
