Extended Systems has released a new version of its desktop synchronization software, XTNDConnect PC 5.0, with a variety of enterprise IT-focused features.

According to the company, although the majority of demand for Extended Systems' mobile sync solutions centers on its server-based product, the number of enterprise customers who require a standard, desktop sync solution to support multiple device types continues to increase. With XTNDConnect PC 5.0, several of the features included in the server-based product are now included in the desktop software.

Among these features is an IT configuration wizard that enables centralized deployment and management of XTNDConnect PC. The company said the wizard gives IT a way to allow end users to easily perform installs and software updates, eliminating the need to touch every desktop equipped with the software, and reducing the roll out time and upgrades of XTNDConnect PC.

Other features include Schedule Sync, which asks the device to automatically sync at specified time intervals and allows sync via Bluetooth or 802.11, and Quiet Sync, which asks the device to automatically sync each time it is placed in the cradle
XTNDConnect PC 5.0 costs $59.95 per user license.
