[October 14, 2008] Export Development Canada Installs Trellia Mobility Platform Tweet (Wireless News Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Trellia, a provider of mobility management software, announced that Export Development Canada (EDC) deployed Trellia's solution to enable seamless and secure 3G and Wi-Fi access for its mobile workforce. EDC expects gains in productivity from its recently deployed mobile worker platform. The platform leverages HP tablets, a Cisco VPN and Trellia's Mobility Platform for automating device connectivity and related security policies across all LAN, Wi-Fi and 3G networks. EDC is Canada's export credit agency, offering financing, insurance and risk management solutions to help Canadian exporters and investors expand their international business. Every year, EDC's knowledge and partnerships are used by over 6,400 Canadian companies and their customers in up to 200 markets. "Our mobile workers are mainly bankers, insurance experts and consultants; and all require remote access to corporate applications, files, e-mail, video conferencing and collaboration tools while on the road visiting customers," said David McNulty, EDC's Telecommunications & Desktop Services Manager. "EDC needed a globally scalable solution that would simplify mobility for our end users while minimizing mobility related support and access costs." "EDC's decision to deploy Trellia globally, validates the need to unify connectivity processes and related policies for successful enterprise mobility initiatives," said Giovanni Forte, President and CEO of Trellia. "As organizations leverage an increasingly complex mix of wireless access, multiple 3G carriers and eventually WiMAX, the need to simplify the end user experience becomes paramount to obtain the expected productivity gains."
