Advantages of Outlook Mobile Service

Email and SMS Text Messaging are both common methods of communication between business partners, colleagues, friends and family. Each has its advantages, however managing appointments, contacts and correspondence over two pieces of software can be cumbersome and create opportunities for miscommunication.

Outlook Mobile Service for MS Outlook 2007 and 2010 presents the opportunity to streamline communications across these two mediums by fully integrating FASTSMS functionality with Microsoft's popular email client. This makes composing and sending SMS Text Messages as straightforward as sending an email.

Using Outlook Mobile Service you can send the same message both as an email and a text message to multiple contacts at the same time. By configuring your settings you can even have your emails, reminders and calendar appointments forwarded on to your phone while you are out of the office.
