Business Wire
Cited for promoting strengths in enterprise
data connectivity, offline synchronization, and an outstanding
vision for the future
Red Hat, Inc. (NYSE: RHT), the world's leading provider of open
source solutions, today announced it has been named a leader in
“The Forrester Wave™: Mobile Infrastructure Services, Q3 2015” by
Forrester Research, and received the highest score among all
vendors for the strategy category—an assessment of each vendor in
terms of its vision, customer satisfaction, speed to market, and
alliances.
Following its evaluation of Red Hat's current offering,
strategy, and market presence, Forrester ranked the company as a
leader in mobile infrastructure services, cited for promoting its
“strengths in enterprise data connectivity, offline
synchronization, and an outstanding vision for the future of the
product that is exciting many clients.”
Forrester conducts primary research to develop a list of vendors
that meet its criteria to be evaluated in this market. From that
initial pool of vendors, Forrester then narrows its final list
based on product fit, customer success, and Forrester client
demand, and evaluates the vendors and their products against a set
of 112 criteria to determine each participant's final score.
In October 2014, Red Hat accelerated its move into the
enterprise mobility market with the acquisition of FeedHenry, a
mobile application development platform provider with a top-ranked
Mobile Backend-as-a-Service capability, and has continued to expand
its presence in the mobile infrastructure services space through
its enterprise mobility vision, continued enhancements to the Red
Hat Mobile Application Platform, and by forging a strategic
alliance with Samsung Business Services.

projects to improve employee productivity and build competitive

these mobile development and integration services. We're honored to
be named a leader in this space.”
