I am on the board of advisors for Mailtrust, which is a division of Rackspace (RAX). Mailtrust is probably one of my favorite SAAS solutions on the market today. My partners and I partnered with Mailtrust years ago before they were actually called Mailtrust, or even before Rackspace acquired their company. Our premium email solution is reflective of our partnership with Mailtrust.
Today I got an email notifying me that Mailtrust’s Noteworthy product line had launched their Synchronization tool for use on the iPhone. The tool can be picked up inside the Apple Applications directory. I look for this to be a huge addition to their already popular Noteworthy product. We have plans to make a similar announcement regarding our email solution along these same lines in the very near future.
When the iPhone was first released, we jumped at the chance to develop a tool on this great new platform. This happened at the same time that we were really focusing on building up our relationship with Funambol. So what better way to do both, than to go to Italy for two weeks and work alongside their developers on the project?
In April 2008, that’s exactly what I did. I spent two weeks in Pavia, Italy discussing with Funambol how we can work more closely. At the same time, I worked with their team on the core code base of the Funambol iPhone client. The trip was amazing. Since then, we’ve continued to work closely with Funambol on new and old projects.
When I got back to Blacksburg, we set to work customizing the iPhone client for our own users. After many months, and intense coordination efforts with Apple, we’re finally ready to launch. This client is probably the easiest to use of all of our clients, and we are proud to give our valued customers the ability to sync their Noteworthy contacts directly with their iPhone or iPod Touch!
If you are a current customer using Noteworthy you can download the iPhone client from the App Store through iTunes or follow this link.
