FAQ
Frequently asked questions –make informed decisions
Of course, whether it’s the GAL from O365 or Exchange On-Premise together with your customer contacts from HubSpot and other contacts from a ZIP file (CSV/JSON format) – multiple sources and formats can be fed into EBF Contacts.
Yes, EBF Contacts can interact with various unified endpoint management systems. These include Ivanti EPMM, Microsoft Intune, Workspace ONE, Jamf, and BlackBerry Enterprise Server.
Yes, the app also runs on tablets. On Android tablets, caller ID even works if the device offers full telephony capabilities.
EBF Contacts is the perfect addition to your global address list, allowing you to distribute it (and other contact data sources) to all Android phones and iPhones. This ensures that the contact list on company phones is always up to date and available for telephony and email applications.
If EBF Contacts runs on a UEM system and a work profile is stored on Android, the contact data cannot be read by other apps if configured accordingly.
No, logging in with Kerberos has not yet been implemented.
Yes, contacts stored in EBF Contacts can be accessed via the Teams app, and audio or video calls can be initiated directly from the EBF Contacts app if Teams is set up in the company.
EBF Contacts enables mobile and secure contact management by providing direct access to Microsoft’s Global Address List – both from Microsoft 365 and Exchange On-Premises. This gives employees all relevant company contacts centrally on their mobile device – including caller ID and automatic synchronization. This simplifies communication, increases availability, and ensures consistent contact management even when on the go.
To sync corporate contacts from a company directory to employees’ mobile devices, the Global Address List (GAL) both from Microsoft 365 and Exchange On-Premises or other address books need to be connected. To do so an app like EBF Contacts is needed which supports Microsoft 365, Exchange On-Premises, HubSpot, and CSV sources in one pipeline. The app enables reliable contact delivery across mobile fleets, including caller ID and automatic synchronization. This simplifies communication, increases availability, and ensures consistent contact management even when on the go.
Yes. Enterprise contact synchronization can combine Microsoft 365, Exchange On-Premises, HubSpot, and CSV in one managed architecture. A unified connector model lets IT apply one transformation across all sources, so contact quality and access controls stay consistent. This is especially important when organizations run hybrid infrastructure and multiple business systems in parallel and can be realized with EBF Contacts.
Update speed depends on connector design, policy settings, and device connectivity, but enterprise-grade contact sync should support frequent, automated refresh cycles. The key requirement is predictable propagation with monitoring and retry logic, not manual uploads. In production, teams should track sync latency, failed updates, and stale-record rate as operational KPIs to maintain data quality across iOS and Android fleets.
Yes. Corporate contacts can be delivery by AD group so users only receive relevant data. Scope-based policies reduce exposure risk, improve search relevance, and keep device address books manageable. This model is essential in multinational organizations where legal entities and regional teams require different contact visibility. EBF Contacts allows to filter O365 contact data for specific AD groups.
Enterprise contact synchronization is GDPR-comliant and secure, if the implementation applies data minimization, purpose limitation, encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, and auditable processing. For enterprise environments, align policy with legal, security, and workplace teams before rollout to ensure compliance and operational consistency. EBF Contacts fully meets GDPR and security requirements.
Enterprise contact sync can work with Microsoft Intune, Jamf, Workspace ONE, BlackBerry and Ivanti when integration is designed around each platform’s managed app and profile controls. The practical goal is consistent contact delivery and caller identification across iOS and Android regardless of UEM stack. EBF Contacts interacts with various Unified Endpoint Management systems, including Microsoft Intune, Jamf, Workspace ONE, BlackBerry Enterprise Server, and Ivanti EPMM.
For contact management identification, it is important that phone numbers are stored in international format.
Caller identification can continue to work offline when corporate contacts are securely stored on the device and updated during sync windows. This is important for mobile users in low-connectivity environments. Implementations should encrypt local data and define refresh policies so offline usability does not weaken enterprise security requirements. EBF Contacts allows data to be available securely for caller identification without an online connection.
Yes. In managed environments, policy controls can restrict synced business contacts from personal apps and unmanaged profiles. This separation helps prevent accidental data leakage while still giving employees fast access to approved corporate contacts. If EBF Contacts runs on a UEM system and a work profile is stored on Android, the contact data cannot be read by other apps if configured accordingly.
