Are you a Domino + BES shop?
09/30/2008 11:30:10 AM | Chris Toohey | Bethlehem, PA
Had an idea yesterday for a new freeware Lotus Notes application that I think would really help Blackberry and Domino shops... which got me thinking - how many of you are both Domino and BES shops?
This utility application will use a combination of Java and the BES API to... well, I'll go into more details once I get the proof of concept up and running. Let the teaser stand at "it will help Domino + BES shops utilize mobile devices for more than JUST email, without having to write mobile device applications".
On a side note - expect to see a new YouTube demo/tutorial for MixMaster - my Remote Logic-Driven NotesItem Manager (as well as the actual utility application) later today.

Chris, yes we are a Notes & BES site. I would love to hear what you got going on.

We are also. Thanks.

Consider me teased. I match your target audience. I'll be curious as to what you come up with. I'd love an easier way to deploy some basic functionality.
09/30/2008 12:02:55 PM
We are too. We'd love to do more with BES but don't have the time/resources to write mobile apps (I'm the only developer and I'm busy on other stuff). I'm definitely interested to see what you're putting together.

People are often under the assumption that you need Java to create meaningful BB apps. Not so if you have full BES (not Professional). It comes with (although not usually installed) MDS-IS, Mobile Data System Integration Services. This allows you to use MDS Studio to build fully functional BlackBerry apps using Domino web services (R7 >=). You can use the quick start once you have WSDL in little over a day.
And it is secure. And it is free.

Bring it, Chris. There are a lot of Domino+BES shops. :-)
09/30/2008 12:41:36 PM
That's us - desperately wanting to provide good stuff for Blackberry users but not having any time

Yes. We are a Domino + BES shop with many many many Blackberries all over the world. I can't give a number but it's a four digit number and pretty high.
09/30/2008 01:04:58 PM
BES/Domino here and definitely interested.

I think you'll find this thread will get thousands of "Yes we use both"... so in keeping with the current theme...Yes, we use both! lol I'm anxious to see what you have in mind.

I responded on Twitter but I thought I would make my mark here too. I have a bunch of rabid Blackberry users who are all also Notes/Domino users (not so sure they're rabid about that) with BES on Domino.

Hi Chris !
This is greate, as you know we are focus on Notes apps (CRM) but in Norway we also have promoted BB for the last 3 years, so pls let me know when you have some good stuff that I could tell our Notes/BB clients!

BES for days. I can get it to my BES team and also test it internally

We're 100% iPhone.
Just kidding. We have thousands of BB's rolled out with Lotus Notes.
09/30/2008 05:29:33 PM
Chris,
Do you think you could get a beast of a Lotus Notes application to run on a Blackberry? Oh and it's full of Notes 4.6 code!! LOL
10/01/2008 08:47:08 AM
Very interested - I have lots of things from Domino I would like to roll out to the Baclberries, but don't have the time to learn how to do it!!!!
10/01/2008 10:39:39 AM

Interested.

Count me in too!
10/01/2008 04:21:31 PM
We use both domino and BES. Your offer sounds interesting!
10/01/2008 04:51:48 PM
We too used both Notes and BES. We are anxious to see how can we leverage lots of Domino applications using BB.

You can get any app to run on a device, but you won't like many of them.
Setting expectations for forms or views is important.
Making the app easier than the office based version is important as well.
Just trying to set expectations.
I hate trying to read a poor designed form on my 2-3 inch phone screen.
Having said that, Chris, you and I should talk.

Domino & BES here too. We actually spent plenty of time and resources creating a Mobile Platform with a Designer Studio to make mobilizing Domino Applications easier. Check it out!
