San Jose, CA — October
3, 2005 —InnoPath Software,
Inc. (formerly DoOnGo Technologies),
the industry leader in over-the-air
(OTA) mobile device management, today
announced that Casio Hitachi Mobile
Communications Co., Ltd. (CHMC),
a leading supplier of mobile communications
solutions, will deploy DeltaUpgrade
Plus—InnoPath’s firmware
over-the-air (FOTA) update solution
for mobile device management—to
manage and send firmware updates
to CHMC handsets. The two companies
have signed a global agreement which
will provide CHMC with the firmware
update solution it needs to securely
manage on-device firmware over-the-air,
enabling cost-effective delivery
of the most advanced features and
functionalities to end-users’ mobile
handsets.
With the increasing importance of mobile
data services and the corresponding
increase in mobile phone complexity,
the ability to remotely manage and
update mobile devices is of growing
importance. InnoPath’s comprehensive
mobile device management solution
enables both increased revenues,
through faster time to market and
higher utilization of data services;
and allows handset manufacturers
to provide an unmatched user experience
to customers through faster updates
and better personalization options.
“As the first company to deploy
FOTA update technology for device management,
InnoPath’s DeltaUpgrade Plus solution
improves the end-user experience and
enables feature enhancements to be delivered
as soon as they become available,” said
John Fazio, president and CEO of InnoPath. “CHMC
can reduce customer service and warranty
costs while improving brand loyalty and
customer satisfaction. This deployment
with CHMC is another success story for
InnoPath as we continue to broaden our
market reach.”
Leading operators and handset manufacturers
have selected InnoPath’s
update-ready technology as the
preferred carrier grade device
management solution. InnoPath is
first OTA device management company
to actively update handset firmware
in commercial deployments, and
helped bring the first commercialized
OTA-capable mobile phones to market.
Today, millions of handsets have
been updated in the hands of subscribers
with device management technology
provided by InnoPath.
