Increasing availability of Wi-Fi and Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) technologies throughout the Middle East will herald a new era of mobile enterprises and boost any where, any time, and always connected computing, leading European IT vendor, Fujitsu Siemens Computers has predicted during its Mid East mobility tour.
Addressing key regional customers and partners, Louis Jouanny, Head of Mobility Domain for EMEA, Fujitsu Siemens Computers said that the growth of mobile technologies will revolutionize the way business across the Gulf is conducted. However, he cautioned that enterprises should not only look at the benefits of mobilization but also anticipate concerns such as cost, security and complexity, and formulate viable plans to overcome them.
“The risk for businesses lies not in adopting new mobile technologies, but rather in attempting this seismic shift without a comprehensive business strategy to meet challenges,” added Jouanny.
“Pragmatism and security are the cornerstones of Fujitsu Siemens Computers’ mobility strategy. We have developed a multi-pronged, customer-centric initiative to educate end-users about the benefits of these technologies, and also the pitfalls.”
Fujitsu Siemens Computers is uniquely positioned to provide regional enterprises with strategic guidance, from assessment and planning through to deployment and operations, combining unparalleled experience in manufacturing mobile computing products.
The event, held at Dubai’s Grand Hyatt, showcased Fujitsu Siemens Computers’ range of notebooks, tablet PCs and handhelds with embedded UMTS wireless wide area networking capabilities.
The company also outlined benefits from the Intel® Centrino® Duo Mobile Technology’s battery-enhancing capabilities, which enhances long-term connectivity and productivity.
“For Gulf enterprises, UMTS is pushing forward a significant change in business cycles and Fujitsu Siemens Computers’ mobile solutions mean unlimited connectivity and versatility for a wide range of users – from sales, service professionals, inspectors and surveyors, to jet setting executives” added Jouanny.
Fujitsu Siemens Computers has set its sights on the next ambitious milestone – High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA), or 3.5G. HSDPA marks the advent of truly broadband cellular Internet access and embedded UMTS by Fujitsu Siemens Computers is HSDPA-ready, making its products future proof.
