Sprint has made its NextMail feature available on all Sprint devices. NextMail allows mobile professionals to instantaneously send a recorded voice message to up to 50 e-mail addresses, or also send the voice message via text message to up to 50 mobile devices and receive a "Listen to" notification.


With NextMail, powered by Pacific DataVision, the message can easily be sent with the push of a button. NextMail Professional (previously known as NextMail Locator) offers users the ability to include location information and pictures with a NextMail message.

"In today's business climate, companies need solutions that improve productivity, increase profitability and enhance customer satisfaction," said Tom Roberts, vice president of business marketing, Sprint. "Historically available only on Nextel devices as an extension of Nextel Direct Connect, NextMail is an ideal solution for companies with highly mobile workers. Industries like construction, field services, distribution and many public sector entities will find NextMail to be a critical business tool to communicate with many people instantly, especially in places where typing isn't convenient, and to document thorough and accurate information."

Other features of NextMail include mobile time and attendance reporting, appointment scheduling, customized mobile forms, job ticket and customer information management, and an advanced communications console.

"NextMail's Intelligent Queuing provides businesses a valuable triage tool for their field workers, finally allowing dispatchers and call center operators to quickly prioritize inbound voice communication from the field," said John Pescatore, CEO of Pacific DataVision Inc. "This allows for a significant reduction in unproductive hold time, which results in increased productivity and revenue."
