PeopleSync is a classic middleware between your enterprise contact databases (e.g. GAL, CRM) and your phones, tablets and applications.
Users need the contact details of their coworkers, customers and business partners while using their mobile devices on the road and their desktop phones and applications in the office. The users need caller ID resolution on every phone to see who is calling. They want to search for email addresses and phone numbers on the devices and in groupware applications.
By default mobile devices are able to synchronize personal contact data only (e.g. via ActiveSync). Beyond that PeopleSync brings all enterprise address lists to the user’s devices. Smartphones, tablets, office phones and many email applications are able to access the corporate contact data via PeopleSync.
The PeopleSync Server is a Windows Server application. The address list provisioning is managed via groups in Microsoft Active Directory or Office 365.
