Importance of mobile email
- Email is the heart and soul of world communication; be it personal or for business, email keeps you connected.
- Email has made people more efficient and productive.
- An email in most cases is quicker and less expensive than a voice call, and a person can email far more people in an hour than they can phone.
- Mobile email has become a priority for large organisations and can save a mobile user 56 minutes of an eight-hour day.
