Through Siebel Wireless and the Go.Web platform, companies will be able to use wireless hand-held devices, PDAs and notebook computers to obtain remote wireless access to Siebel eBusiness Applications – including Siebel Sales, Siebel Field Service, Siebel Financial Services, Siebel ePharma, Siebel eCommunications, Siebel eEnergy, and Siebel eAutomotive.

Additionally, the combined solution will enable Siebel Systems’ customers to access their corporate data and intranet, send and receive email, and browse the Internet through Go.Web.
Multichannel eBusiness enables enterprises and consumers to conduct business transactions when and where they want across multiple business channels and platforms,” said Brian Stone, director of product marketing, Wireless Products, at Siebel Systems. Working together, GoAmerica and Siebel Systems will be able to offer joint customers an enhanced user experience by delivering the information they need directly to them via a highly secure and scalable wireless platform.”
GoAmerica is committed to anticipating and meeting the varied mobile communications needs of the corporate enterprise,” said Joe Korb, president of GoAmerica. “We believe that companies want to extend the value of existing applications, rather than develop new applications specifically for wireless access. Siebel Systems is a world leader in delivering best-in-class, Web-based eBusiness solutions. This alliance will provide mobile employees seamless wireless access to their proven wire-line applications, allowing them to stay productive and in touch while away from the office.”
