Soonr let us know they released their native BlackBerry app this week. Their app takes a different approach from SugarSync and DropBox with more business and collaboration features like teams, remote access and security baked in. They also have SLA’s along with SAS 70 and HIPAA compliance in their own infrastructure to help businesses adopt the cloud approach. You can see the concept in action in the video demo:
Their BlackBerry app gives you access to that data on the go with a Soonr Premium account for $9.95 per month for three users and 25 GB of storage. Soonr Pro is $29.95 per month for five users and 100 GB of storage. Extra storage is available from $.25 per gigabyte and additional users can be added $8 per person.
