More than just pager replacement
Several years ago AT&T launched Enterprise Paging. The goal was to offer a common-sense option for eliminating limited-functionality pagers and arming remote workers with a much more powerful and productive wireless device, such as a BlackBerry®, Palm® or Windows Mobile® device.
Today, millions of notifications a month are sent via the AT&T Enterprise Paging gateway. The service has evolved into an end-to-end connectivity interface used by Fortune 500 businesses with complex back-end systems, as well as by medium and small businesses with simpler notification applications. Business customers have learned how to customize their business around the connectivity platform that AT&T Enterprise Paging has enabled.
For daily business operations and activities, Enterprise Paging can become an important enhancement to a multi-modal notification and response strategy. The combined benefits of the AT&T Enterprise Paging gateway, together with a strong portfolio of business-class and ruggedized mobile devices results in a best-of-breed notification connectivity platform that allows workers to become more productive and decisive in the field.
