Good Technology and PensEra Team Up To Deliver Wireless Access To Time and Knowledge Applications
Attorneys Can Capture Billable Hours and Actionable Information From Wireless Handhelds Running GoodLink™
SUNNYVALE, Calif. – April 21, 2003 – Good Technology, Inc., an innovator in enterprise mobile computing, and PensEra Knowledge Technologies today announced that the companies have teamed up to enable attorneys to capture billable hours and leverage current information from mobile devices. The companies have integrated their products to deliver on-the-go access to PensEra’s time and knowledge systems for attorneys – right from wireless handhelds running Good software.
As a result, an attorney can use a wireless handheld to quickly jot-down a note about a case, a practice approach or business opportunity whenever the occasion arises – during a meeting, traveling on the train or leaving the courthouse – and the information is wirelessly entered into the firm’s internal systems for immediate action. The GoodLink™ wireless e-mail and data system transmits the information to the PensEra TimeKM Knowledge Funnel™ system back at the firm. The TimeKM Knowledge Funnel routes the information as appropriate to other lawyers who can act on this new intelligence or to the firm’s internal billing system that captures billable hours.
“Law firms choose GoodLink because it enables attorneys to better serve clients and remain productive when they are out of the office,” said Terrence A. Austin, president of field operations at Good Technology, Inc. “Good’s partnership with PensEra will accelerate the delivery of high-impact mobile applications for law firm customers such as Keesal Young & Logan LLP. These firms leverage Good’s mobile computing system and consulting services in combination with the TimeKM Knowledge Funnel to increase worker productivity and enhance return on investment.”
“PensEra and Good Technology share a vision of anytime, anywhere access to information,” said Peter Zver, President and CEO of PensEra. “PensEra’s Knowledge Funnel captures and distributes current, actionable knowledge by embedding it into the attorney’s natural work process – at the office, at home or on the move. GoodLink extends the Funnel’s reach to a wireless handheld, so we can help attorneys capture more actionable information whenever and wherever it occurs.”
The TimeKM™ Knowledge Funnel is a knowledge and time management system designed specifically for the legal profession, but it has equal value for other service professionals. The patent pending process helps the individual attorney and law firm turn scattered notes and cluttered e-mail into retrievable enterprise knowledge.
The GoodLink wireless corporate messaging system delivers an always up-to-date, cradle-free system for wirelessly connecting mobile workers with valuable information stored in company servers. The optional GoodInfo™ wireless information system extends valuable data sources wirelessly to mobile users, making it easy for handheld users to access Web-enabled applications – even when wireless coverage is intermittent. GoodInfo is optimized for delivering data over today's wireless networks: it uses a query and response delivery model to make information available both offline and online. Users can easily submit wireless queries via GoodInfo and receive responses quickly. Custom GoodInfo Applications are quickly built using standards-based Web technologies, such as XML, CGI and HTTP, and can be distributed to users wirelessly.
