I just read a nice article about the quarter’s numbers of MicroStrategy at IBN which also mentioned the BlackBerry compatibility:

Latest Release of MicroStrategy 8(TM) Software

The latest release of MicroStrategy 8 software was made generally available on July 18, 2008. The new release offers enhancements to MicroStrategy Mobile(TM), MicroStrategy Integrity Manager(TM), and integration with SAP BI. In addition, MicroStrategy now offers interactive reporting and analysis on the Apple(R) iPhone(TM).

The new MicroStrategy 8 release offers a broad range of user-friendly features to MicroStrategy Mobile. MicroStrategy Mobile users can now access a host of new data views for dashboards and reports on their BlackBerry(R) smartphones. Users can reformat reports and save the formatting changes to share with other mobile users. In addition, reports can be displayed incrementally on the BlackBerry, which gives users greater speed in viewing exceptionally large reports.

So I did some research on the whole MicroStrategy products and the features you can use with your BlackBerry. MicroStrategy Mobile is well-suited to meet the BI needs of a broad range of mobile workers:

An executive from a large financial services company monitors the organization’s top financial metrics and makes time-sensitive decisions that impact the company’s bottom line while out of the country.
A retail buyer accesses merchandise sales data to determine what is selling and not selling in specific stores to support purchasing and inventory reallocation discussions with store managers.
A pharmaceutical salesperson reviews the latest market share reports, prescription sales, and inventory data to prepare for sales calls.
A manufacturer’s field technician provides enhanced customer service on-site by checking the customer’s historical service record and product availability before scheduling a follow-up service call.
A marketing executive from a Fortune 500® company evaluates the latest marketing campaign analytics while meeting with the advertising agency to make key decisions on future marketing expenditures.
