CHICAGO IL (PRWEB) November 5, 2003 - Expand Beyond Corp. is announcing general availability of version 2.3 of PocketAdmin mobile software for Windows administration today with enhanced support for Exchange Server management. With PocketAdmin for Windows 2.3, system administrators can now remotely manage critical e-mail servers from a handheld device securely and in real-time to ensure optimal system performance around the clock, from any location.

PocketAdmin for Windows mobile software enables administrators to manage users, groups, printers and shares at both the Active Directory and local machine levels, as well as Windows applications and services, including Exchange and IIS. The easy-to-use graphical interface ensures that administrators can quickly perform routine maintenance tasks as well as diagnose and respond to any issue affecting the enterprise from a wireless enabled device including smartphones, PDAs, laptops - even the desktop.

Using Microsoft Exchange is an essential aspect of doing business today," says Ari Kaplan, CEO of Expand Beyond. With PocketAdmin mobile software for Windows and Exchange management, system administrators can keep this mission-critical application running optimally at all times and raise the bar on meeting their Service Level Agreements."

Microsoft Exchange provides mission-critical e-mail services that organizations of all sizes rely on to conduct business," said Chris Baker, group product manager for Exchange at Microsoft Corp. We applaud the work Expand Beyond is doing to make it easier for system administrators to manage systems from anywhere and at anytime using mobile devices."

PocketAdmin enables IT staffs to increase productivity and improve responsiveness to system events since now they can be anywhere and remain connected to the enterprise. Unlike desktop management tools, PocketAdmin is optimized for todays wireless technology -- its low-click design is fast, intuitive and entirely secure. New features of PocketAdmin 2.3 include the ability to:

·    Connect to any Windows NT4, Windows XP Professional, Windows 2000, or Windows 2003-based machine either inside or outside your Active Directory

·    Create, monitor and manage Exchange mail queues

·    Stop, start, pause, resume and view properties of Windows services including special Web-site level support for Microsoft IIS

·    View dynamic graphs of real-time application performance data

In conjunction with the new release, Expand Beyond also announced it has achieved Microsoft Gold Certified Status.
