The company wanted to create a platform that would enable enterprise employees to run apps on their Android, iOS & Blackberry Apps device in a secure manner, partitioned from all their personal applications. They had a highly capable team who developed solution’s core IP and architecture, but needed help building out the solution. Some of their fellow entrepreneurs directed them to Folio3 and after evaluating Folio3’s mobile expertise and its focus on working with startups building technology products, Bitzer Mobile chose Folio3 as its partner for this venture.

Folio3’s team of expert mobile developers not only picked up the core technology in a short span of time but also quickly delivered a proof of concept for the iOS platform.
