Client Install

Agito Networks’ RoamAnywhere client can be installed on smart phones running Windows Mobile (left) or Symbian OS (right). The software installer automatically identifies the type of device and installs the appropriate client software.


Client Config

The client software for both platforms needs to be pointed towards Agito’s Mobility Router and configured with the user’s credentials.


Extensions

The RoamAnywhere client maintains both the corporate and mobile personalities.


Forwarding

5

Users on both platforms can easily set call forwarding and voice mail rules from the device.


Directory Lookup

Unlike the software for use with the Symbian OS, which has a separate dialer application, Agito’s Windows Mobile functions are painted directly into the native dial application. Here we perform a lookup from the corporate directory.
