Metaphor Software Announces Field Tests of MobileDecisions Technology Solutions

Naperville, Illinois based technology development firm to test leading edge wireless technology for remote field forces.

NAPERVILLE, IL (PRWEB) July 8, 2004 -- Metaphor Software has announced that it has completed internal development and testing of its flagship technology, MobileDecisions, and has begun field assessments for the wireless technology designed for businesses that serve remote populations such as field forces, distribution channels and consumers.

MobileDecisions uses a middleware" approach to link by linking common wireless devices -- such as PDAs and SmartPhones -- with data from internal computer applications.

For John Carr, CEO of Metaphor Software, field tests are an essential part of Metaphors development approach. MobileDecisions is a robust, flexible and widely adaptable technology so field tests allow us to evaluate it in a variety of settings. In addition to testing the technology, we can also exercise our training and support resources."

He added that field tests also provide value to its development partners - companys that agree to implement, use and evaluate MobileDecisions before market release. Companys get the early mover advantage and direct access to the development team -- the people that built the product. This helps our partners get faster use and value from their efforts."

Metaphor plans to test MobileDecisions in several industry and technical settings, but indicated that development partnerships will have greatest appeal to firms that serve remote work force populations -- such as work forces, distribution channels and customers -- who need access to critical decision data.
