Microsoft has a logo program where they will certify any ActiveSync implementation from a protocol licensee.
I have no idea how much it costs. That being said, I suspect it's a drop so small that Apple and the various Android implementers would never notice it. Choosing to not certify their implementations (and thus avoiding these problems) is a pure choice that is made by the licensee. Microsoft actively triages each one of these issues to determine whether the implementation fault is with Microsoft or with the licensee. It does represent a significant support burden.

This user has many devices attaching to Exchange 2010 SP2 RU4. These are iPhone5 iOS6, Outlook 2011 (EWS), OWA (Safari) along with an iPad2 (iOS6). The 'missing' calendar items were found and restored from the iPad as they were removed from the mailbox and subsequently all other 'devices/cache'. We believe the iPad triggered the "loss" as this is where the missing calendar items were found but have no further proof as to how this may have occurred. As most of our faculty has numerous devices to connect to email, this has the potential to be a very serious issue. I have hear many time that Microsoft supports ActiveSync in general but it is up to the individual manufacture as to how they implement this in their device. Basically there is no 'official' assistance from MS on these intermittent issues. Now is the time to review how good your backup software really is.
