Allow or block mobile access with Active Sync

Email, appointments and contacts on your smartphone

More and more users need to be able to access their emails, appointments, contacts, etc. on the move. You know it from your daily work: it should always be fast. Unlocking or blocking mobile access is a task that could be completed faster and more easily – if it did not require the administrative rights on the Exchange Server.

Access can be easily activated or blocked.

What if the help desk or the departments could manage access to mobile devices themselves? Of course, that would only be for mailboxes or users who fall under their responsibility – traceable and transparent. Activating or blocking mobile access for e-mail, calendar or the Outlook smartphone app should also be done without administrative rights.

  • Secure delegation of this task to the help desk or department
  • Exclusively for assigned mailboxes or users
  • No administrative rights to Exchange Server required
