Mobile services vendor, Good Technology has acquired CloudSync, a mobile device management company for an undisclosed amount. CloudSync enables customers to deploy, manage, control, locate and support a wide range of mobile devices anywhere in the world through a web-based mobile device management system.
"The days of the single-device mobile enterprise are over. Businesses of all sizes are under pressure to support a rapidly expanding set of mobile devices, platforms and applications," said Brian A. Bogosian, chairman, CEO and president of Good Technology. "Good Technology is committed to giving organizations everything they need to let their users securely connect and collaborate on whatever devices they choose. With CloudSync, Good simplifies and enhances mobile device management for companies of all sizes with the additional option for a secure SaaS offering."
CloudSync's product line includes a device management console, a remote help desk application, powerful web-based access control, and the unique CloudLocate GPS-based location application, which gives IT managers a real-time view of all the mobile devices in a fleet including their location. CloudSync supports all Microsoft Windows mobile devices, Windows laptops, and RIM BlackBerry devices, and combined with Good, will extend its support to iPhone, Android, Symbian, and webOS devices in the coming months.
"With this acquisition, Good more fully addresses the increasing demand for cloud based services to complement its best in class enterprise mobility offerings. Shareholders of CloudSync are very excited to be a part of the world's best enterprise mobility company," said Nigel Thompson, CEO of CloudSync. "Any business planning a mobility deployment will be compelled to consider Good based on its unmatched solutions for mobile security, collaboration, and device management regardless of the smartphone or mobile computing platform they choose."
