Administer your Projects and Manage Devices in the Field.
MobileFrame provides everything your business needs to ensure your projects run smoothly and drive high returns on investment.  With our platform, administrators can set individual client preferences (kiosk mode, full menu control, device lock down), send alerts and messages to mobile workers including receipt acknowledgement, control synchronization schedules, view project results and track field worker efficiency, send messages to mobile workers, automatically update devices in the field, monitor device status (battery life, memory, etc) in the field, and much more.

Automatically Update Devices in the Field.
With MobileFrame, mobile worker's devices can be updated without hassle and device recall becomes a thing of the past.  Simply select and attach any update files and on the next synchronization the updates will be sent to the device, activated, and applied.  We not only automatically update MobileFrame software in the field, but also other third party and operating system software as well.

More than a Shrink-Wrap Application.
MobileFrame offers far more than a shrink-wrapped solution or Visual Studio plugin.  Create complex mobile applications from scratch in just minutes or import one of our pre-made application templates and custom tailor it to suit your organization's needs.  There is no limit to the extent of customization and sophistication available with our solution.

Create Applications and Deploy them to any .NETenabled device.
Create a single application and deploy it to any .NET enabled device such as a Pocket PC, Tablet PC, or Laptop without having to compile code for each device-type or re-compile code when the application changes.  We handle all the programming complexities so you don't have to.

Ease of Integration.
MobileFrame's architecture is designed to integrate easily with existing IT infrastructures, ensuring the highest return on existing network and enterprise system investments. Our Smart Architecture^TM seamlessly integrates a GUI desktop, any-to-any client server databases, intelligent client device rendering, autonomous network synchronization, remote software updates and automatic device driver recognition into one seamless platform.

With MobileFrame, you can create fully-custom mobile applications specifically tailored to your organizations needs. For more in-depth information and a product demonstration, please contact us and we will give you access to our online demo.

Product Overview

MobileFrame has created a unique software platform that allows business users with no IT background to develop and deploy complex mobile applications, enabling data collection and managed workflow to be seamlessly integrated from the field to backend systems. MobileFrame customers can connect to backend enterprise systems in real-time and capture rich data types such as documents, digital photos, voice notes, bar code scans, digital signatures, etc., while in the field. MobileFrame's award-winning Smart Architecture^TM integrates intelligent networking with a thick client so the mobile worker always has complete workflow available whether or not network connectivity is continuously available. When the smart client senses wireless or wireline connectivity, the system automatically sends and receives queued transactions, content and messages.

Smart Architecture^TM

The MobileFrame Smart Architecture^TM consists of four integrated software modules: MobileFrame Desktop, MobileFrame Database, MobileFrame Server and MobileFrame Client. Together they allow novice computer users to create and deploy sophisticated mobile applications to workers without the need for professional IT services. MobileFrame's Smart Architecture integrates intelligent networking with a thick client so the mobile worker always has the applications and data available whether or not network connectivity is continuously available. When the smart client senses wireless or wired connectivity, the system automatically sends and receives queued transactions, content, and messages.

MobileFrame's software is built on the latest .NET, Web Services, and XML standards. As a result, it is broadly compatible with existing application servers, networks, and applications to leverage the performance, scalability, and reliability of proven system software from companies like Microsoft, Oracle, Sybase and Sun.

MobileFrame Desktop
The MobileFrame Desktop is a graphical administration tool that enables business administrators and novice computer users to create mobile applications, workflow, enterprise data, and reporting for mobile workers by using intuitive point and click features. All programming complexities are handled in the background so they are transparent to the business users. Sophisticated mobile applications can be created and deployed from a self-maintained library so changes to mobile applications can be made on-the-fly.  The MobileFrame Desktop also gives System Administrators a full featured portal into the administration of their mobile environment with features such as central management and monitoring of all MobileFrame servers and Active Directory integration.

MobileFrame Server
The MobileFrame Server consists of multiple server components that together manage the synchronization and security of the data to and from the mobile devices, maintain and monitor the database for outside changes, and process server-side workflow.  It is installed on any Windows 2000/NT/XP/2003 computer that has a resident IIS application server. The components of the MobileFrame Server can be distributed in any permutation across multiple servers or can reside on a single server. This allows for complete scalability and configurability as your business needs grow.

MobileFrame Client
The MobileFrame Client is a .NET-based software application that operates in a thick client mode enabling mobile workers to perform their tasks whether or not network connectivity is continuously available. Business rules, workflow and enterprise data are assembled into Project and Task Libraries by business administrators using the point and click features contained in the MobileFrame Desktop and are deployed to the MobileFrame Client by the MobileFrame Server whenever synchronization takes place.  The Client stores all of the deployed Project data in its database enabling the mobile worker to perform all assigned tasks without continuous connectivity to the back office. When wireless or wired access becomes available, the system can automatically, manually, or by way of workflow begin a synchronization operation to send and receive queued transactions, system updates, and/or content.  All synchronization is performed in the background via industry standard secure protocols and is compressed to ensure security while minimizing transmissions costs. The MobileFrame Client supports a variety of rich data types (photographs, graphics, sound, bar code scanners, GPS devices, digital signatures, audio, and much more) and operates on any .NET enabled handheld device, including Pocket PC PDA's, Tablet PC's or Laptops.

MobileFrame Database
The MobileFrame Database is a SQL database featuring a data schema that permits business users to define workflow and fully control user access to backend enterprise data through the MobileFrame Desktop application. The MobileFrame Database on the server side provides a review and staging area for data that flows between mobile users and backend systems such as accounting, ERP, CRM and SCM systems. The MobileFrame Database on the handheld device is a repository for both the workflow and project data created by the business administrator and the results data gathered by the mobile worker in response to those assigned tasks.   To discuss your requirements further please contact us.
