Wavelink’s Velocity Now Available

Wavelink Corporation (http://www.wavelink.com) announced the availability of Velocity, a mobile enterprise browser that provides fast, reliable delivery of web-based applications to rugged mobile devices.

Velocity is engineered to address key traditional browser shortcomings such as poor performance, connection interruptions, lack of scanner support and narrow OS platform support. It introduces a new set of features to enhance web-application performance. The offering is built with the needs of today’s wireless networks in mind. It renders pages much faster than traditional mobile browsers, allowing enterprises to extend productivity from the existing mobile work force.

Key features include:

• Session/connection persistence – Automatically maintains a web application session when the mobile device loses its connection.
• Out-of-range and roaming support - Inside and/or outside the four walls and over either local or wide area connections.

• Optimization for Data Collection – Integrates data collection support into applications.
• Load balancing – Optimized communication in high-traffic environments with multiple servers.
• Broad OS support – Initially features Windows and Windows CE/WM with Android and iOS coming soon.
• Mobile device manufacturer agnostic – Provides broad mobile device support.

“Unlike traditional or legacy browsers, Velocity is built specifically for the mobile environment,” said Mikkel Storm, director of product management at Wavelink. “Legacy browsers were built for constantly connected PCs, posing serious challenges with connectivity, the user interface and scanner support. Velocity is optimized for mobile devices in mobile environments, giving customers a more reliable way to run mission-critical applications on mobile devices.”
