FancyFon Partners with MDSL

FancyFon FAMOC and MDSL Smart TEM team up to optimize corporate data management


CORK, IRELAND – Monday 26th September, 2011– FancyFon™, a pioneer in mobile device lifecycle management solutions that enable organizations securely and centrally manage multiple smartphones and tablets over the air, today announced that it has entered into a partnership with MDSL, the leading provider of international telecom expense management (TEM) and market data management (MDM) solutions.

The two companies will work together to integrate FancyFon’s FAMOC with MDSL’s Smart TEM, to offer their customers enhanced corporate data management, addressing the evolving security challenges of enterprise mobility. 

Dietmar Fuchs, Chief Operating Officer of FancyFon commented; “We are very pleased indeed to be working with MDSL to integrate FAMOC into their TEM solution. The resulting enhanced capabilities will ensure customers are best placed to tackle significant issues such as “consumerisation”, where the proliferation of mobile devices entering the corporate workspace is generating major problems of scale, security and management.”

Ben Mendoza, CEO of MDSL, added; “There are numerous user cases where combining TEM with mobile device lifecycle management brings greater value to customers than the simple sum of the parts. By tightly integrating the "over-the-air" functions of FAMOC into the TEM user portal and workflow toolset, we can enable users and administrators to visualise and manage the use and security of global mobile devices in real-time. That includes tablet devices, as well as phones based on the Android, IOS (Apple), Symbian, RIM and Windows Mobile platforms – all from a single intuitive interface. We are delighted to be partnering with FancyFon in a collaboration which will see significant benefits for MDSL Smart TEM users, who will now have the additional functionality of mobile device lifecycle management at their fingertips. We have always understood that mobile device management was the next logical step in extending the functionality of the MDSL Smart TEM product suite, but were determined to ensure the right “fit", to guarantee the seamless integration, breadth of product offering and levels of service our customers have come to expect. We have found those qualities in FancyFon and its product suite”.
