Syclo Was Positioned in the Leaders Quadrant in Gartner's 2009 Magic Quadrant for Mobile Enterprise Application Platforms

About Mobile Enterprise Application Platforms (MEAP)

A MEAP is a framework used to develop, implement and support multiple enterprise mobile applications. MEAPs address difficulties of developing mobile software by effectively managing the diversity of devices, networks and user groups at the time of deployment and throughout the mobile solution’s lifecycle. In Syclo's experience, such flexibility can produce costs savings of 15% to 20% compared to using code-centric approaches.

In Gartner’s opinion, "Large enterprises with significant populations of mobile employees should standardize on one or two mobile enterprise application platform (MEAP) vendors. Those who have diverse applications, networks and device requirements need to strongly consider the multichannel capability of the MEAP they choose; those who do not have diverse requirements can focus on a smaller set of target devices and may find that narrower offerings suffice."
