SEATTLE, WA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- May 9, 2007 -- NetMotion Wireless, the industry-leading Mobile
VPN solution provider and Microsoft® Registered Partner, has announced the
immediate availability of the latest version of its Mobile VPN, Mobility
XE™ version 7.2, which supports the Windows Vista™ operating system.
NetMotion Wireless was the first Mobile VPN to announce support for Windows
Vista. Previewed in December 2006 in conjunction with the enterprise launch
of Windows Vista, Mobility XE version 7.2 has been tested by over 60
enterprises in a cross section of industries. Allowing organizations to
test both products prior to their widespread release gives administrators
the opportunity to see first-hand the advantages of using Mobility XE for
secure, continuous access to network resources and applications from
devices running Windows.
Mobility XE 7.2 also includes a new Client Network Failover feature that
automatically identifies when a connection is broken downstream and
switches to the next-fastest available connection. For mobile workers that
rely on more than one wireless network interface, Client Network Failover
saves valuable time and provides more seamless connectivity.
"City of Austin Public Safety agencies deployed the preview version of the
Mobility XE 7.2 release," said Ralph Warren, Network Systems Supervisor for
the City of Austin, a NetMotion Wireless customer. "We tested the new
Network Client Failover feature with our enterprise, police, EMS and fire
personnel in the field over 802.11, Cellular and LAN interfaces. Our mobile
workers found they didn't have to waste time trying to authenticate to
unavailable networks, which gives them a better user experience and helps
optimize our workers' productivity."
"As anticipated when we released the Mobility XE 7.2 preview, our customers
who have deployed this release are excited about its benefits," said Tom
Johnston, senior vice president of product and marketing at NetMotion
Wireless. "Even minutes saved in the field can equate to enormous gains in
productivity -- particularly when you multiply that time savings across the
mobile workforce. If workers can fit in another site visit, process another
order or address an issue more quickly because they're spending less time
worrying about their connectivity, organizations see the real impact to
their business over time."
Mobility XE 7.2 is available now.
