With Growth in Smartphone Use, Promotion Demonstrates
Commitment to Simplifying and Securing Mobile Content
Management
Feb. 10, 2014, Woburn, MA- Acronis®, a global data protection
company, today announced a promotion for Acronis mobilEcho® with
MobileIron AppConnect to
help enterprise IT boost mobile productivity and securely manage
mobile devices.
"Mobile devices have made employees more productive, and IT is
fighting to maintain compliance without hindering that
productivity," said Ezequiel
Steiner, General Manager, Mobility Solutions at Acronis. "Now
that many IT departments have implemented MDM systems to gain
control of mobile device security, the natural next step is to
extend that control to also manage and secure the access, storage
and editing of content on those devices. This promotion makes it
easier and faster for IT to get back in the driver's seat, while
ensuring that users gain the simplicity and ease of use they crave.
We are excited to work with MobileIron to meet the evolving needs
of organizations with the most stringent security regulations."
As an AppConnect
partner, Acronis is leveraging the MobileIron platform to deliver a
best-of-breed solution for secure mobile content management and
editing with Acronis
mobilEcho®. With AppConnect-enabled apps, customers can secure,
manage, and distribute third-party apps to their employees.
MobileIron's AppConnect
ecosystem includes more than 50 productivity apps and over 100 more
are in development. Acronis is pleased to announce that customers
who are implementing Mobile First strategies can take advantage of
mobilEcho with MobileIron AppConnect at a promotional price for a
limited time.
"Our ecosystem features some of the most popular mobile business
apps available," said Sean Convery, Vice President of Product
Management for MobileIron. "Acronis' strong focus on both the data
protection that IT requires and the great experience users demand
made them an ideal partner."
Acronis mobilEcho became one of the first partners of the
AppConnect ecosystem in 2011. At the time it was recognized as the
first mobile content management (MCM) application on the market,
and today it is a leading solution for MCM and editing needs that's
fully integrated with all AppConnect features on both iOS and
Android.
Acronis mobilEcho is the industry's first secure Mobile Content
Management (MCM) solution that meets the stringent security and
management policies required by today's enterprise to turn a mobile
device into a true business platform. For example, it meets the
needs for highly regulated industries, such as financial services,
healthcare, pharmaceutical, government, education, and energy.
