management. The Opticon’s H16 and H19 Windows Mobile PDA devices can be managed centrally and over-the-air with Capricode’s SyncShield® mobile device management solution. This means Opticon’s state of the art PDA devices together with Capricode SyncShield® device management solution enables companies to fully exploit the benefits of smartphones in their daily working life.
The SyncShield® device management tool and its centralized operations, enable significant cost savings for organizations, whilst ensuring the devices security and operability.  With SyncShield®, the companies using Opticon’s PDA devices can for example, manage the device applications and settings without interrupting the actual device user.

Mobile device convergence is here today with computer-like smartphones and PDAs, which are a necessity for today´s mobile workers. The devices that include advanced applications, enhanced memory capabilities and varying connectivity possibilities (WiFi, Bluetooth, GPRS/EDGE, GPS like in Opticon H16 and H19 has) have enabled a completely new way to utilize smartphones at work. This creates a novel need for comprehensive device management, support and security. Managing tens or even thousands of devices manually is time consuming and difficult. Therefore a comprehensive device management tool like SyncShield®, which enables simultaneous, over-the-air device management, is an efficient instrument for an organisation’s IT administration.

For Opticon the cooperation with Device Management Company Capricode, is an effective way to ensure their customers get the most out of their PDA devices cost efficiently. Customer satisfaction is very important for Opticon, so the cooperation with Capricode is a natural way for them to improve the utilization of their devices.

“We at Capricode are very pleased to see that Opticon, as a device manufacturer, has highlighted the importance of efficient device management as an integral way to improve the device usage experience. We believe that through our cooperation we can ensure the customers are able to fully exploit Opticon’s PDA devices with minimum effort and maximum security”, says Jonny Kaarlenkaski, CEO of Capricode.

Previously Opticon has not identified any similar device management technology that it could recommend to its customers. Now Opticon is convinced that SyncShield® meets the customer needs: “A good remote-control solution has many key features which are important for the end customers and partners, but the key to success is that the solution is easy to take into use, you can use it anywhere, anytime and the costs are low for the entire chain in the control process. The SyncShield® solution gives our customers and partners a good way to fulfill the customer needs with our H 16 and H 19 Win Mobile based units”, says Esa Kymäläinen, Business Developer at Opticon Sensors.
