Fiberlink Positioned in Leaders Quadrant of Magic Quadrant for Mobile Device Management Software

- Evaluation Based on Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute

PHILADELPHIA, May 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Fiberlink®, the leader in software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions for secure mobile device management (MDM) and mobile application management (MAM), today announced that it is positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the Leaders quadrant of the Mobile Device Management Software 2012 report[1].

Gartner Magic Quadrants have become one of the most influential research reports upon which IT buyers use for their evaluations and purchases. Fiberlink was selected into the Leaders Quadrant based on specific criteria, including the ability to execute on factors such as customer experience and product, as well as completeness of vision, including market understanding and innovation.

According to Gartner, "In 2011, MDM was focused on supporting basic security on consumer mobile devices and enforcing enterprise policies. Although this still exists, the drivers to support third-party and enterprise-developed business applications and content are continuing the growth of, and interest in, MDM in 2012 and beyond."

MaaS360 is a comprehensive and integrated mobility management platform for smartphones, tablets and laptops. Through a single easy-to-use console, IT organizations can manage policy, enforce security and support the expanding use of mobile devices, applications and documents in the enterprise. Delivered as a true cloud-based service, MaaS360 enables companies of all sizes to get up-and-running quickly with the agility they need to run their mobile business.

It’s a confirmation that our focus on customer experience and innovative cloud-based approach is taking hold in the market and differentiating us from other vendors,” said Christopher Clark, president at Fiberlink. “With our reputation for unparalleled customer satisfaction, we’ll continue to raise the bar in enterprise mobility management over the next year.”
