Blackberry takes security, productivity, and communications tools cross-platform

Blackberry said today it will bring its security, productivity, and communications tools to iOS, Android, and Windows.

In an announcement about the Blackberry Experience Suite made at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, Canada’s Blackberry said “we want to empower all mobile professionals in order to supercharge their productivity and allow them to work across all their devices in an effortless and secure way.”

The company said the suite of tools will be released later this year.

This isn’t the first time Blackberry has brought its tools to other devices or platforms. It has already done so with its Blackberry Messenger and Blackberry Blend.

With the Blackberry Experience Suite, the company is extending its “cross-platform strategy of complementing [its] innovative and ultra-secure hardware with software solutions that meet the changing needs of enterprises and mobile professionals — as well as device makers serving those markets,” it said.

The Experience Suite will comprise three individual sets of tools: the Productivity Suite, the Communication & Collaboration Suite, and the Security Suite.
