The results are in for the 2009 Mobile Star Awards, the 8^th annual awards program put on by MobileVillage where the industry votes for the top mobile products, success stories and visionaries of the year.  The industry has spoken, and Agito Networks was voted as the best in each of these areas, earning the Mobile Star Awards’ top honors – the Superstar ranking in each category entered.

In the Enterprise Software Awards Category, industry voters named Agito’s RoamAnywhere Mobility Router as the #1 Unified Communications / Fixed Mobile Convergence product, over a field of competing products that included RIM’s Voice Mobility Suite and Motorola’s TEAM VoWLAN solution.  The industry recognizes RoamAnywhere’s unique ability to mobilize enterprise voice and UC applications to increase mobile worker productivity while reducing costs by extending UC, PBX and deskphone features to mobile phones and providing industry-leading handover between WiFi and cellular networks.  RoamAnywhere uniquely offers high availability, redundancy, security, enterprise scalability, and the industry’s broadest IP-PBX and mobile handset support, including support for the Research In Motion (RIM®) BlackBerry® smartphone.

In the Success Story Awards Category, industry voters recognized Agito’s customer Hertford Regional College (HRC) as the top Wireless Network success story, over numerous other wireless network end user organizations nominated.  HRC, the largest further education college in Hertfordshire, deployed Agito’s FMC solution to improve voice connectivity and productivity in its mobile environment of 900 staff and more than 12,000 full- and part-time students, while reducing costs.  With facility building materials that do not allow cellular coverage indoors and a campus-wide Cisco WLAN and IP-PBX already in place, HRC turned to Agito Networks for high-quality voice communications, leveraging their WLAN.

Finally, in the Visionary Awards Category, Agito Networks’ Co-Founder and CTO Timothy Olson was voted by the industry as the top visionary for Wireless Network Solutions.  Mr. Olson was recognized for creating Agito’s RoamAnywhere Mobility Router – the industry’s first and only location-aware solution that intelligently routes users to the best wireless network available based on a combination of policy and users’ current location.  Instead of following the FMC market with carrier offerings that remain slow to emerge, Mr. Olson created a solution directly for the enterprise.  When confronted with limitations in available smartphones, Olson and his team developed new techniques and solutions for delivering enterprise-grade VoIP on these phones when it was considered not possible.

Agito is flattered and humbled by the recognition of the industry and our customers.
