Gartner recognizes Globo as Challenger in 2015 MADP Magic Quadrant

PALO ALTO, Calif - Tuesday, July 28th 2015 [ME NewsWire]

(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Globo Plc (LSE-AIM: GBO, OTCQX: GOBPY), the international provider of Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM), mobile solutions and software as a service (SaaS), has been positioned in the “Challenger” quadrant in Gartner’s 2015 Magic Quadrant report for Mobile Application Development Platform (“MADP”) providers.

According to Gartner, Challengers are characterized by their ability to execute, demonstrated by high product revenue and a large customer base, while their considerable resources ensure long-term viability. Globo supports a complete Mobile Application Development Lifecycle, allowing enterprises to rapidly develop innovative mobile applications with superior UI/UX capability that deliver great mobile experiences and successful user adoption.

Globo has distinguished itself from the competitive landscape as an end-to-end mobility solution provider by its recognition in both the MADP and EMM Magic Quadrants for 2015.

Costis Papadimitrakopoulos, Globo’s CEO commented:

“Our inclusion in both of Gartner’s EMM and MADP Magic Quadrants is a validation of our early vision that enterprise mobility is not only about securing and managing mobile devices and data, but also about extending enterprises’ capabilities through the use of mobile apps. Over the past years we have invested heavily in R&D and commercial expansion of both the EMM and MADP product lines and we are recognized by being the only pure-play mobility vendor in both Magic Quadrants.”
