BlackBerry Fusion is currently available for BlackBerry (current smartphones running BlackBerry OS, future BlackBerry 10 devices and the PlayBook), iOS and Android Devices. Here’s the full list of features:

– Support for multiple devices per user

– Centralized, easy to use, unified web-based console
– Security and policy definition and management
– Asset management
– Configuration management
– Security and protection for lost or stolen devices (remote lock, wipe)
– User- and group-based administration
– High scalability

As for the prices, RIM is currently offering a 60-day free trial, but afterwards it’ll be priced per device. RIM noted in their press release that “volume discounts are also available” but the BlackBerry Mobile Fusion Client access licenses (CALs) start at $99 per user or $4 per user per month.

Alan Panezic, VP, Enterprise Product Management and Marketing at RIM said “BlackBerry Mobile Fusion allows organizations to manage a mixed environment of devices in the most secure, simple, and cost efficient manner possible. It also means that businesses and government do not have to move to the lowest common denominator on security for all the devices they need to manage.”
