BURLINGTON, MA. December 2, 2014 – Alpha Software Corporation today announced it has integrated its award winning Alpha Anywhere with Apperian, Inc., the leading platform for securing and managing enterprise mobile apps, to enable fast and secure deployment of enterprise business applications.
Enterprises today understand the value of mobile business apps to allow employees on the road or in the field to get work done. However, many are faced with the “mobile app gap” – or the challenge of quickly deploying, then managing these critical business apps. In fact, a recent IDC Research survey of U.S. and U.K. companies with more than 1,000 employees found that 61 percent of organizations surveyed have deployed only three or fewer mobile applications.1
“The promise of mobile apps in the enterprise is great, with the ability to improve productivity and enable a truly mobile workforce. But many organizations struggle to make this a reality,” said Richard Rabins, Alpha Software Corporation CEO. “By partnering with Apperian, we’re eliminating the app gap hurdle by allowing developers to push critical business apps created rapidly in Alpha Anywhere out to enterprise users more quickly and easily than ever before.”
The seamless integration of the Alpha Anywhere complete prototype-to-production environment with Apperian’s end-to-end, cloud-based solution for securing, distributing and managing mobile apps enables organizations to more quickly and easily provide constituents with feature-rich, secure and branded business apps. The integration provides a variety of benefits, including:
“IT and line of business leaders are creating critical apps, but getting them deployed and adopted in today’s BYOD environment is a challenge,” said Cimarron Buser, SVP of Business Development at Apperian. “Alpha Software’s integration with Apperian’s platform provides a solution that streamlines the entire application lifecycle, from development, to app security, distribution and updates. We’re helping deliver the productivity benefits of mobility while eliminating complications normally encountered when managing enterprise apps, especially in environments of unmanaged devices.”
