Product description

Mobilizer software enables applications on the laptop, notebook, or PC to
run equally well whether permanently or intermittently connected to the
office LAN computer network. This is important for mobile employees who are
on the road and away from the office, and telecommuters who are working out
of their homes or in remote locations.

While directly connected to the office LAN, Mobilizer users can select PC
files, database information, and email from their servers and store a copy
of it on their laptop or notebook hard disk. Once this information is
"cached" onto the desktop, users can disconnect the laptop or notebook from
the office network, slip the computer into the briefcase, and hit the road.
With Mobilizer software, time away from the office no longer impacts the
travelers' productivity. While in an airplane or a hotel room, Mobilizer
users can access their email, database files, or PC files as if they were
still directly connected to the LAN in the office.

Once traveling Mobilizer users have finished responding to email, updated
database files, and updated PC files (such as written memos using a PC word
processing package), they can reconnect the laptop to the office LAN
computer network and synchronize their updates to the servers back at the
office. During this communications session, which can be a dial-up link from
an airport or hotel room, Mobilizer users can have updates to PC files,
email, and database files automatically transferred from their servers to
their local PCs or laptops. With this updated information on the local PC or
portable device, they can disconnect from the network and remain totally
productive -- without the expense of a constant telecommunications session
between the remote PC and office LAN servers.

Telecommuters can be at their desks at home and dial into the office LAN
server to cache their selected PC files, database files, and email during
the day. Once the information is resident on the local PC, telecommuters can
discontinue the telecommunications session to the office and access their
email and files -- freeing up the telephone line for other purposes.
