- Security, device, and application management.
- Enterprise data boundary for employee-owned smartphones.
- Real-time usage alerts for roaming and cost control.
- Operator service quality monitoring.

Drive user adoption and productivity through phone choice and services
like the enterprise app store.

sold as an easy-to-install appliance that plugs into a company's IT
infrastructure. The platform is up and running in less than an hour
