Soonr Announces European Launch of Feature-Rich Mobile Data Platform for Telecommunications Operators Designed to Attract, Empower and Retain Subscribers

Industry’s most complete platform for secure access, backup and collaboration announced at GSMA Mobile World Congress in Barcelona

Barcelona, Spain—February 11, 2008—Soonr, a global innovator dedicated to making computer files available and useful through any mobile phone or Internet-connected device, today announced its private-label mobile service for telecommunications operators. The platform is designed to enhance operator revenues, reduce churn, increase customer loyalty and add value to converged network holdings. It was unveiled at the annual GSMA Mobile World Congress in Barcelona today.

Soonr’s extensible platform provides operators with a private label premium service designed for mobile professionals who want continuous access and interaction with their files, “set it and forget it” secure offsite backup, and collaboration with others while on the go. Ideal for the strategically important small and medium-sized business market, the service can be re- branded and offered as either a stand alone service or bundled offering, giving operators a distinctive service advantage while increasing average revenue per user (ARPU). Soonr’s solution is easily deployable and can be up and running in 30 days.

“Our number one focus is providing operators and partners with a service that is strategically and economically valuable to them,” said Jonathan Wood, Soonr’s senior vice president of worldwide sales and operations. “We do this by offering a compelling service for mobile professionals, combined with a back-end solution that complements and co-exists with an operator’s existing services, networks and mobile handset offerings. The result is increased customer satisfaction, retention and revenues.”

Unlike other services which offer single point solutions, Soonr’s platform provides a host of critical features for mobile professionals including remote access, backup and restore, collaboration, sharing, search, remote printing and faxing. When used with mobile handsets, Soonr’s unique rendering technology provides unparalleled document viewing of over 30 different file types.

The service makes cloud computing personal, providing mobile professionals with their own secure place “in the cloud.” Their files are now available anywhere, anytime on any device on any network. With Soonr, users can enjoy new levels of productivity while on the go, like having one-touch search of all their files, including files shared in a workgroup, and printing on any printer, whether their own or one that is shared with them. All of this can happen even when the users’ computers are turned off.

Soonr’s first operator customers include TeliaSonera, the leading telecommunications company in the Nordic and Baltic region who offers Soonr services as part of their EasyBox bundled solution for small and medium-sized businesses.

Also today, Soonr and CSL, the largest operator in the mobile communications market in Hong Kong, announced that Soonr is being deployed as part of CSL’s Get&Share offering.
