Chalk Pushcast Enterprise Software Renamed to BlackBerry Pushcast

 BlackBerry Pushcast

Way back in early 2009 RIM acquired Chalk Pushcast Software and we were hoping for big things from the acquisition. Sadly nothing showed up in the consumer space but RIM tried pushing it in the enterprise space for mobile learning and communications. It seems like they do have users for the software because they did release a PlayBook version but now they have officially dropped the Chalk name to simply call it BlackBerry Pushcast. They brand the solution as giving enterprises the ability to:


Push interactive content to mobile users wirelessly and help enhance productivity and improve employee efficiency with BlackBerry Pushcast Software.

Priority communications
Securely send executive communications and track to ensure they’re received and understood.

Priority training
Reach people like never before, with the potential for completion rates better than in traditional eLearning.

RIM announced in their forums that BlackBerry Pushcast software is the next iteration of Chalk and you can read more about it below or at www.blackberry.com/pushcast.

BlackBerry® Pushcast™ Software is the next iteration and rebranded version of Chalk Pushcast Software. BlackBerry Pushcast Software facilitates media-rich training and communications and includes several components and applications that authors can use to create, manage, and send mobile content to computers or BlackBerry smartphones.

BlackBerry Pushcast Player users can view and save content on their BlackBerry smartphones by downloading the content when they are in a wireless coverage area and open the content when they are offline.
