BlackBerry smartphones are a staple of mobile communications for many businesses, but some of the key productivity features have not been available to small and medium businesses. RIM is solving that, though, with the introduction of BlackBerry Cloud Services for Microsoft Office 365.

BlackBerry Cloud Services for Microsoft Office 365 is a cloud-based service hosted by RIM that extends the capabilities of BlackBerry smartphones by connecting to and integrating with Office 365. Mobile users will be able to connect with the Microsoft Exchange Online data such as email, calendar, contacts, tasks and notes from their BlackBerry smartphones.
