Sybase Positioned in Leaders Quadrant In 2009 Mobile Enterprise Application
Platform Magic Quadrant
DUBLIN,
CALIF. – DECEMBER 22, 2009 — Sybase, Inc. (NYSE: SY), an industry leader
in delivering enterprise and mobile software, today announced it has been
positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the Leaders quadrant in its Magic Quadrant for
Mobile Enterprise Application Platforms (MEAP) report, authored by William
Clark and Michael King (December 2009).
“We
believe that more than 95% of organizations will be choosing MEAP or packaged
mobile application vendors as their primary mobile development platforms
through 2012,” states the Gartner report. “From 2010 through 2013, the number
of enterprises choosing multichannel MEAP vendors will rise 10% annually.”
“Sybase
is in the best position to support the movement away from siloed mobile
applications to the mass adoption of mobility across the entire enterprise.
With the growing number of end users and device types to the demand for real
time access to information, our enterprise mobility platform is unrivaled in
the industry,” said Gary Kovacs, Senior Vice President, Markets, Solutions
& Products, Sybase. “We believe our position in Gartner’s leader quadrant
is further validation of the significant advancements made to our Sybase®
Unwired Platform and success in building out our partnership ecosystem.”
Sybase
Unwired Platform leverages the vast experience Sybase has in delivering
mobility to hundreds of thousands of customers and users over the last 20 years.
The platform addresses difficult mobile application challenges, such as
back-end integration, development and support of mobile applications on
multiple diverse device types, and secure access and management of these
heterogeneous mobile devices, all within a highly reliable push data
synchronization architecture.
