San Jose, Calif. -- Feb. 3, 2009 - MobileFrame, LLC (www.mobileframe.com) today announced release of version 4.5 of their Configurable Mobile Application ^TM Product Suite. MobileFrame's solution is the only truly Configurable Mobile Application ^TM Platform in the industry that enables novice users to create and deploy custom mobile applications without custom programming. MobileFrame's software platform is an entirely self-contained mobility system that provides full functionality out-of-the-box, with no custom programming, no third party mobile gateways, synchronization engines or SDK's required. With version 4.5, MobileFrame has added a slew of useful features such as real-time instant messaging, the ability to capture device snapshots, and support for the latest hi-resolution devices.

Instant Messaging. With MobileFrame's proprietary secure end-to-end instant messaging capability, administrators have full control and authorization over message senders, recipients and message grouping including full message audit record logs. In addition, this messaging operates in both connected and disconnect modes. MobileFrame is the only mobile platform on the market with fully integrated, Sarbanes Oxley compliant secure Instant Messaging built-in.

Enhanced System Administration. The Server Manager functionality has been enhanced to provide for increased scalability. The User Administration screen now supports grouping for better organization of large numbers of users. For example, you can now group device data by device name, OS version, device platform, device OEM, etc.

Device Snapshots. MobileFrame's Device Snapshot feature gives administrators the ability to capture a screenshot of a remote device's current screen. Administrators now have the ability to see exactly what the field worker sees on their device; a great resource for training, oversight and troubleshooting.

Enhanced Device Support and Graphics Handling. Version 4.5 now provides enhanced support for recent mobile computing advances including high resolution devices and landscape mode. Version 4.5 also includes advanced graphics handling that conserves device memory, renders transparency even on Windows Mobile Devices, and provides a thumbnail-list of all graphics in use. The expanded capability to use graphics in applications allows customers to present a more compelling user experience to facilitate acceptance by field workers.

Other features of Release 4.5 include:

• In-Field Annotation of Photographs. MobileFrame now provides field workers the ability to capture a photo in the field then annotate the photo on-the-fly. For example, a mobile worker might take a picture of a damaged product then circle areas on that picture to highlight the damaged areas.
• Improved MobileFrame Remote Manager. The Remote Manager now provides the ability to view data in groups (such as group by device, employment role, etc), allowing better organization of information. The remote manager now displays the remaining battery, free memory, free storage, database size, last connected date/time and pending activities for each user. Version 4.5 also has added the ability for administrators in the back-office to initiate a synchronization of the mobile device. In addition, the Remote Manager allows full auditing of MobileFrame Instant Messages and export of all Remote Manager Data.
• Secured PDF Documents. An updated PDF workflow now supports the generation of password protected PDF documents allowing restriction of viewing, editing, printing and copying.
• Updated URL Operations. In addition to allowing opening a URL in the browser via workflow, the updated URL Operations now also allow sending of an HTTP request and receiving a response back from the URL (e.g., screen-scraping a website).
• Enhanced Synchronization Engine. The Sync engine has been enhanced to improve performance and scalability.
• Memory Use Optimized. Several optimizations throughout the platform have led to a more efficient use of memory.
