Introduction

Mobile Express is a new feature in Microsoft Dynamics CRM that enables you to access CRM data and capabilities simply and easily. With Mobile Express, you can use any mobile Web browser, such as Internet Explorer Mobile or Safari, in your Web-enabled mobile device to connect to your Microsoft Dynamics CRM system. Mobile Express does not store data on your mobile device.

Mobile Express works well for:

• 
  Occasional access to Microsoft Dynamics CRM.
  
• 
  High-speed networks.
  
• 
  Completing a broad range of common CRM tasks.
  

Some organizations do not allow Internet access to Microsoft Dynamics CRM. In these instances, your mobile device must be connected to your corporate network to access Mobile Express. Your system administrator can tell you if your organization uses this type of set up.
