NetMotion Wireless Unveils Mobile Reporting Capability

NetMotion Wireless has introduced its new Mobile Analytics Module, designed to help monitor the performance of networks, applications, devices and users. The module provides historical and granular detail on the status of mobile deployments across any wired or wireless network.

It features more than 20 pre-configured and fully customizable reports that do the monitoring. For the first time, performance reports are available for every network in use by mobile workers. The new module complements NetMotion's mobile VPN (Virtual Private Network) Mobility XE, which provides secure wireless connections to applications across wireless coverage gaps and data networks, while providing centralized management tools for IT administrators. The new module is available immediately at no charge for customers with existing premium maintenance agreements and for new customers who purchase licenses for 1,000 or more mobile devices.

"In our daily operations it is critical for us to know the degree to which our mobile workers are able to perform their duties effectively," said Jason Pitts, technical field services manager, Avista Corporation, an energy company that provides service to 351,000 electric and 310,000 natural gas customers in three western states. "With NetMotion's new analytics capabilities, we will be able to pinpoint any application, network or device that is causing a productivity loss and quickly implement a fix."

"To date, business owners and decision makers have had to make educated guesses as to the performance of their mobile workforce," said Bob Hunsberger, president and CEO, NetMotion Wireless. "With our new Mobile Analytics Module, CIOs and network administrators can ensure that their expectations match the reality of what is taking place in the field and react appropriately."
