'Catavolt has the capability to redefine enterprise mobility as we know it today,' said Vinny Smith, founder of Toba Capital. 'IT departments that need to meet the challenge of mobility, whether in a company-supplied or Bring-Your-Own-Device (BYOD) environment, can deploy secure, scalable applications to multiple device types, as well as utilize current infrastructure investments without heavy lifting. They truly get the full package with Catavolt.'

'Mobile enabling the workforce has proven to be a competitive edge for enterprises both large and small. The challenge is unlocking the business process that is walled off in hard to reach and often legacy back-end systems,' said Catavolt Chief Executive Officer George Mashini.

We have enabled our customers to be more agile and to gain market share by making their employees better equipped to do their jobs.
