Toshiba Selects Innopath's Mobile Device Management For Softbank 812t, 813t And 911t Handsets

Validates market leadership position of InnoPath’s End-to-End Solution

SUNNYVALE, CA - February 13th, 2007 - InnoPath Software, Inc., the industry leader in Integrated Mobile Device Management (iMDM), has been selected by Toshiba Corporation to deliver its device management client on the 2007 spring handset models including SoftBank 812T, 813T, and 911T. The solution has also been deployed on the SoftBank 810T, 811T, and 910T models which were available on the market last season. InnoPath’s solution allows for easy and fast software updates to handsets using over-the-air technology.

“We are pleased to be working with InnoPath, a technology leader and industry visionary for both client and server Integrated Mobile Device Management,” said Mr. Kosei Okamoto, Chief Technology Executive, Mobile Communications Company, an in-house company of Toshiba. “Together we are providing carriers with a solution that will help drive revenue and customer loyalty.”

InnoPath’s client solution is deployed on over 170 handset models, more than any other vendor, while the company commands over 90% of the Japanese MDM market based on subscribers served by its server and client solutions.  InnoPath supports initial device configuration and/or provisioning, the ability to remotely diagnose the device for problems, downloading new firmware if required, the ongoing management of applications including the overall user interface, as well as securing the device if lost or providing a means by which they can restore critical data. One of the more powerful capabilities of InnoPath’s iMDM suite is the ability to create a workflow, merging together a set of actions such as firmware and configuration updates. The company was recently recognized by leading research firm IDC as one of ten emerging mobile vendors to watch for 2007.

 “Operators, faced with the business realities of deploying advanced data services across a variety of complex devices, are at an advantage if they have at their disposal a pre-integrated MDM solution,” said John Fazio, president and CEO of InnoPath.  “This permits them to focus their energies on the things that matter most – growing the top-line through new services deployment, and focusing on customer satisfaction.”

InnoPath Software, the leader in Integrated Mobile Device Management (iMDM) solutions, enables wireless carriers and mobile device manufacturers to transparently deliver and support current and future revenue producing services. InnoPath was the first company to commercially deploy firmware over-the-air mobile device management, and its standards-based iMDM Solutions Suite uniquely permits carriers to combine configuration, provisioning, updates, and diagnostics for lifecycle delivery of services into a single integrated workflow. Hundreds of millions of active subscribers are experiencing the value of InnoPath patented solutions through leading carriers including Cingular, Sprint, KDDI, SoftBank Mobile, and device manufacturers that include NEC, Panasonic, Sharp, Sanyo, Sony Ericsson, Kyocera, Toshiba, Samsung, LG and Pantech & Curitel.
