GLOBO Named Finalist in 2013 CTIA E-Tech Awards

NEW YORK, April 30, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- GLOBO's revolutionary enterprise mobility management solution for SMBs, GO!Enterprise Box, was named a finalist in the Enterprise Solution - Mobile Cloud category of CTIA's annual Emerging Technology (E-Tech) Awards competition. The CTIA E-Tech Awards honor the industry's most innovative new wireless products and services in mobile apps, consumer electronics, enterprise & vertical markets and network. Winners will be announced at CTIA 2013™, taking place May 21-23, 2013 at the Sands Expo & Convention Center in Las Vegas.

GO!Enterprise Box which is based on the GO!Enterprise EMM (Enterprise Mobility Management) platform is literally an "out of the box" approach to enterprise mobility for SMBs that allows companies with up to 150 devices to securely run and manage their BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) mobile workforce through the GLOBO cloud infrastructure. The solution allows employee-owned devices to access business data in a secure and centrally controlled manner, without imposing limitations on device configurations or on the use of personal data and applications.

The comprehensive solution includes hosted Microsoft Exchange accounts, cloud hosting and file storage, productivity and collaboration apps, an integrated development studio for creating custom apps, and Admin console to manage and protect corporate assets.

GLOBO will be demonstrating GO!Enterprise BOX during CTIA 2013 at booth #3220.
