With more than 62 percent of companies worldwide predicted to allow bring your own device (BYOD) by the end of 2013, many organizations – and their IT departments, in particular – are still concerned about security and employee privacy, delaying the adoption of BYOD policies.
Since security is so high on the list of concerns and priorities when it comes to corporate mobile devices, it makes sense to turn to the most credible provider when allowing employees to bring in personal devices to company networks.
Fiberlink, the company behind MaaS360 (News - Alert), recently won the ChannelPro Readers’ Choice Award in the first year of the best mobile device management vendor category.
"Winning gold is validation of the strong, dedicated relationships we have with our channel partners. We enable them to provide value to their customers and advance their success," said May Mitchell, vice president of Channel Sales at Fiberlink, in a statement. "This award shows that our partners appreciate that value. It's particularly exciting for Fiberlink because it comes from ChannelPro's readers – our partners."
MaaS360 offers mobile device management for all major devices and programs, including Apple, Android, Samsung, BlackBerry, Windows Phone (News - Alert) and Exchange ActiveSync, as well as mobile app management, secure mail, secure document sharing, secure browser, mobile expense management, laptop management and other services, ensuring an easy and secure environment for mobile devices and corporate networks to join.
Fiberlink serves a variety of customers, including GM, GSA, Yale New Haven Health and Conan Foods. It provides solutions for financial services, healthcare, manufacturing, retail, education, public sector and more. The award recognized Fiberlink for best satisfying readers’ unique business requirements, work styles and budgets of their small and mid-size business clients as well as their partner organizations.
Fiberlink’s partner program enables organizations to expand their customer relationships, easily bundle complementary products and services, accelerate their time to market, develop cloud expertise and experience rapid sales cycles.
"Our readers are as passionate and selective about the tools they choose for their businesses as they are about the solutions they recommend to their SMB clients," said Cecilia Galvin, executive editor of ChannelPro-SMB. "It was gratifying to see such a high level of participation in the survey on the part of our readers, which helps us compile the only rankings of this kind for SMBs and the channel pro organizations that serve them."
