This article is about a technology company. For the scientific term, see Consilience.

Consilient is a privately held company located in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. Other offices are located in San Francisco and Singapore. The company provides push email software for mobile phones and devices using open standards.

Their product, Consilient Push, extends email, contacts, and calendar to mobile devices. Built on new open standards, it is different from the proprietary solutions of competitors 'Research In Motion' (RIM) and 'Visto' that have created patent infringement issues. The company's product does away with a Network Operations Center (NOC) and thus may also have a price advantage.

Consilient co-authored the new open standard along with Sony Ericsson, China Mobile, and LG Electronics, among others.

[edit] Products

Consilient has a free Push email application called Consilient Push for mobile phones that supports up to 5 email accounts. POP3 and IMAP4 email accounts are supported as well as Yahoo, Gmail, AOL and Hotmail. The application has photo attaching and sending capability and also supports attachments in MS Word and PDF.
