Wyless Announces a Major New Release of Its Powerful M2M Management Platform
BOSTON, -- Wyless, the leading global M2M managed services provider, is proud to announce the launch of Porthos(TM) 2.0, a major new release of its powerful web-based M2M management platform. This landmark release delivers a wealth of new features, faster performance and a greatly enhanced user experience.
"As the needs of our M2M customers have evolved, so has our management software. Talking to our customers and partners was a crucial part of the design process for Porthos 2.0," said Dan McDuffie, CEO of Wyless. "We have made dramatic improvements across the board, with a focus on usability, speed and complete flexibility and control."
Selected new features and enhancements:
-- Porthos(TM) 2.0 sports a brand new user interface, completely redesigned to offer improved navigation and a cleaner, clearer display of information. Many common tasks have been streamlined.
-- A redesigned activations and provisioning system will enable "self-serve" end-user activations across multiple GSM and CDMA operators for enterprise partners, improving efficiency and customer convenience while reducing management overheads.
-- The powerful alerting system includes a new geo-fencing feature that can trigger alerts or restrict usage when a wireless device moves between predefined geographical areas. And a new "auto-upgrade" feature will move connections onto a higher price plan when usage exceeds preset thresholds, thus minimizing overage costs.
-- The platform, which is available in several licensing models for large enterprises and MNOs, is now scalable to a potentially unlimited number of devices.
-- The user experience has been improved when accessing Porthos from iPads, Android tablets and other mobile devices such as smartphones.
-- The already-powerful API features have been further enhanced for customers who integrate management functionality directly into their M2M applications.
-- Comprehensive context help and online documentation will be available directly within the application.
"Porthos 1.0 was already at the forefront of M2M management technologies - this release takes it to a whole new level. Porthos 2.0 is a visible demonstration of our commitment to our customers and partners, and reaffirms our position as a leader and pioneer in the M2M space," said Dan McDuffie. "This is the first in a series of enhancements coming from our innovative Wyless Software Group, which will be over 35 people strong by the end of the year."
