BES Express

[Tula.Mobile]

So my company implemented Microsoft Exchange and CRM and while it seems to sync effortlessly w/ iPhone for some reason, our Blackberry users aren't able to sync. I proposed that they look into BES and they thanked me. Today they are implementing BES Express and I asked to be the guinea pig. While setting up I realised that its syncing all my information. I let my employer know that I'm not comfortable with them seeing all my information as this is my personal phone and I have discussions and bbm's and texts, etc, that are private and I don't want anyone seeing. I was told that while they do have the ability to turn off and on certain options, BES Express does not allow them to monitor or see what I'm doing on my phone.

My question; is this true? Can they see all my information?

If they can see all my information, is there a way to sync only my email with the BES Express and leave the rest of my phone off the server?

Anyones prompt and educated response would be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

If BESX is anything like BES, they should be able to see pretty much everything that goes on your phone.

I am not sure, but I'd expect them to be able to set it up in a way they don't monitor some features.

I have worked for 2 companies using BES and bes express.
It's much more hassle to monitor what people are doing than to just lock it down and deal with the complaints.

We have never monitored what users do on their devices and im pretty sure that management wouldnt waste their resources by getting someone to look through all the logs.

Yeah they can see it but they won't bother looking in most cases unless given a reason. I use my personal phone but seeing as I'm the sysadmin I don't have to worry about much lol.

Im actually not sure of BES Express can be configured to monitor your calls, SMS/Texts. Its the one big policy that was removed from BES to make Express. But most things IT admin will be able to see, what applications you have for example.
