Salesforce Mobile for iPhone Is Released

| |

Salesforce Mobile for the iPhone (and iPod touch) are here! Salesforce Mobile for iPhone is based on the same architecture of the other Salesforce Mobile clients. Below lists a few highlights of the most common functionalities:

  • Online and Offline Access to Records - Salesforce Mobile stores data locally on the device for fast access! Information is refreshed every time connectivity is available.
  • Support for Native and Custom Objects and Fields - Users have access to Accounts, Contacts and all the native objects, as well as to any Custom Objects and Fields that are available on the web application.
  • Search - The Search functionality allows mobile users easy access also to data not currently available on the device.
  • Integration with phone, email and browser - Any phone number, URL, mail and email address can be clicked to launch the proper application (phone, browser, email client).

Note you will need the iPhone Operating System v2.0. This is a free upgrade for older iPhones, while the new iPhones 3G already have that version. A small fee will be charged by Apple for upgrading iPod touch devices.
