Calgary, Canada (PRWEB) November 10, 2009
Mob4Hire, the leading crowd-sourced mobile application testing solution, today announced an agreement that combines Flurry mobile application analytics with the Mob4hire global community of testers. The addition of Flurry Analytics to Mob4Hire’s testing and feedback service enables developers to track live user behavior data to further improve applications.
“We are excited to partner with Flurry, which offers our customers quantitative analytics data that complements the qualitative feedback we provide for a holistic picture of their app performance,” said Stephen King Mob4Hire CEO. “With the ability to supporting testing in over 100 countries, Flurry’s cross-platform support made them the right partner for Mob4Hire.”
Mobile fragmentation is estimated to be a $3 billion problem. With over 10,000 different handsets across 700 networks and a multitude of operating systems, mobile software developers face significant application testing, porting and distribution costs. Mob4Hire’s solution delivers detailed, location-specific testing around the world to bring better products to market faster. With the recent, rapid growth of mobile application stores, demand is greater than ever to support application developers by services like that of Mob4Hire.
“Mob4Hire expands Flurry’s global reach into the development community with its award-winning application analytics solution,” said Sean Galligan, Flurry vice president of business development. “We are excited to partner with Mob4Hire to deliver a powerful, joint offering that helps developers improve their applications and grow their mobile business.”
Flurry’s analytics solution provides developers with valuable insight into how consumers interact with applications. Anonymous data is collected from end-user sessions and then reported back, in aggregate, to developers so they may improve applications and increase user satisfaction. Since launching in January of this year, over ten thousand iPhone, Android, Blackberry and J2ME developers have signed up to use Flurry Analytics, and Flurry tracks over 300 million end-user sessions per month across more than 200 countries.
