Windows Phone 7 and the Enterprise

Friday, July 23rd, 2010 Chris Witeck, Director Product Marketing

Yesterday, I read a good preview of Windows Phone 7 from Engadget.

While it is easy to dismiss Microsoft in this space based on previous missteps, there are items in this review that does show some potential for Win Mobile 7 devices to have success with the Enterprise.

This quote in particular stood out for me:

“Tight Office integration, complete with an awesome on-phone document and viewing experience, stands to be one of the biggest differentiators for Windows Phone 7 — a feature that could almost singlehandedly make these devices impossible to ignore for serious business users regardless of their seemingly consumer-centric slant.”
