BOSTON, Jan. 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Wyless, the leading global M2M managed services provider, announced today an agreement with Rogers Communications that enables existing and new Wyless customers to deploy M2M solutions on Rogers wireless networks in Canada. This agreement expands the reach of Wyless' existing award-winning M2M platform which operates in partnership with the world's largest mobile network operators to provide secure, reliable wireless connectivity to mobile and fixed devices around the world.

Rogers business customers looking to deploy M2M solutions outside of Canada will additionally benefit from having access to the Wyless Managed Network and the award winning Porthos Management Platform to cost efficiently deploy solutions in U.S. and global markets.

Shelby Noakes, VP Business Development, Americas at Wyless, said, "We at Wyless are really excited about our partnership with Rogers in Canada. The Canadian market is obviously very strategic to the USA, and with both 2g, 3G, GSM as well as LTE services available across the Rogers network, we felt strongly that Rogers would be the right operator to partner with. Shelby added: "This new partnership with Rogers means we are now able to provide local connectivity to US and Global Enterprises looking to quickly and easily deploy M2M solutions into Canada and in addition offering existing Rogers customers data access to carriers networks all around the globe."

Wyless offers a cost-effective wireless 'one-stop shop' for customers to develop and deploy applications across a broad range of vertical markets, including transportation, retail, oil and gas, government, financial, healthcare, manufacturing and education. The new agreement with Rogers is expected to drive growth in application deployments across these sectors in the Canadian market.

In 2012, Connected World Magazine named both Wyless and Rogers as two of the top 100 most important and influential machine-to-machine technology providers in the world.
