BlackBerry MVS Services

BlackBerry MVS Services are a component of BlackBerry® Enterprise Server software that is designed to provide voice management and security functionality, including IT policies, call control signaling and authentication between BlackBerry smartphones and the corporate telecom environment.

BlackBerry MVS Client Software

BlackBerry MVS Client software adds desk phone features to existing BlackBerry smartphones. This software is a free download and can be installed over-the-air to BlackBerry smartphone users. Download BlackBerry MVS Client.

Ascendent Voice Mobility Suite

Ascendent Voice Mobility Suite is third-party software—provided by Ascendent Systems—that interfaces with heterogeneous PBXs and BlackBerry Enterprise Server to enable enterprise voice mobility. Ascendent Systems is a wholly owned subsidiary of Research In Motion (RIM).

In addition to BlackBerry smartphones, Ascendent Voice Mobility Suite also supports other cell phones, however, the capabilities of these devices limit the functionality:

• Users must use star commands rather than visual menus
• Connections cannot be authenticated through BlackBerry Enterprise Server

BlackBerry Enterprise Server Requirements

The BlackBerry MVS requires BlackBerry Enterprise Server version 4.1.4 or later. If you are currently running an earlier version of BlackBerry Enterprise Server, please view your upgrade options.
