LegiText(TM) transforms mobile device into more effective business tool
PALM DESERT, Calif., Jan. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- At the DEMO 08 conference
today, LegiTime Technologies debuted its professional message management
service - LegiText(TM), which enables smartphone users to mirror the PC
experience in a mobile world through prioritized inboxes, group messaging
features, and administrative functionality. Designed specifically for the
mobile pro-sumer, LegiText addresses the challenges of traditional smartphone
solutions: overflowing inboxes, the need to collaborate with groups in a
mobile environment, and the convergence of personal and professional
communications on a single device.
At launch, LegiText delivers the following capabilities to smartphone
users: -- Group collaboration tools such as one-click group designation,
message
prioritization, group messaging, group conferencing
-- Message prioritization features that provide the ability to group
messages by sender, group, topic, project team, or
personal/professional relationship and configure inbox to display
messages in order of priority
-- Web-based administrative capabilities that archive messages, set
recurring meetings, manage contacts and groups, tie smartphone
communications to calendar functions and provide back-up and management
of the user's address book, as well as offer ability to send RSS feeds,
news, or other pertinent information to the mobile device automatically
-- Threaded, searchable conversation history for SMS
"LegiText makes an effective business tool even more efficient," said
Chris Shipley, executive producer of the DEMO conference. "By putting control
in the user's hands, the product can turn smartphones into true handheld PCs
by allowing mobile subscribers to be as productive on-the-go as they are at
their desks."
Designed for Mobile Professionals
LegiText integrates with existing messaging platforms such as Exchange,
Notes and Web servers, is carrier-agnostic and supports policy management via
business rules. It transforms the mobile device into a more effective
business tool by categorizing messages, allowing users to set up on-the-fly
messaging groups, and more.
LegiText consists of an SMS client that allows mobile professionals to
manage their inboxes and prioritize messages, communicate with groups and
integrate messaging applications with their calendar, along with a Web-based
administrative tool kit. The LegiText Web site allows users to back-up their
contact lists securely, archive SMS messages and message threads, send Web-to-
mobile SMS messages to groups or individuals, and schedule SMS reminders,
alerts and notifications for working groups or other contacts.
"Today's mobile professional is tasked with staying productive, while
managing personal and professional communications day and night," said Eric
Strauss, CEO, LegiTime Technologies. "LegiText provides the tools to make the
smartphone a true business utility - prioritized inbox views that present the
most important messages first, easily accessed group communication features,
business-ready SMS that keeps a record of the conversation, and admin tools
that help the mobile experience mirror the PC experience for professionals on-
the-go."
LegiText's features make the mobile device more effective for smartphone
users in highly regulated and fast-moving industries. For example, users in
the financial services vertical use LegiText to satisfy their regulatory and
corporate compliance requirements with message archiving, policy management,
and private secure messaging groups.
