New York, NY (PRWEB) March 07, 2012

B2B Soft, a business-to-business software company specializing in retail management for the wireless/cellular retail industry, is pleased to announce its participation at the upcoming Cricket Wireless Missouri Regional Dealer Meeting. The dealer confab and seminar will be held on March 7th at Lorenzini’s Lounge in St. Louis University’s Chaifetz Arena, St. Louis, MO. The event brings together Cricket Wireless corporate teams, Cricket regional dealers and industry vendors who will confer on all things Cricket: the carrier’s latest handset lineup, its super hot MUVE music service, its ongoing LTE network rollout, and the very latest promotions and deals.

Dealers are set to receive company information as well as insights and proven strategies for income gain and market success. As a Cricket valued vendor, B2B Soft will participate in the event, hosting a booth and showcasing the latest features found in its innovative retail management platform, Wireless Standard. Wireless Standard’s range of business functions include customer management, service fulfillment, billing and revenue management, service assurance, integrations, inventory management and business intelligence tools. All stack up to give dealers a comprehensive point of sale solution that simplifies the intricacies of wireless retail and frees them up to spend more time better serving their customers.

An area for dealer focus has been increasing customer retention and customer loyalty through an improved and enhanced customer service experience. Wireless Standard has been helping dealers get a leg up by streamlining store operations for more efficiency and efficacy. Its centralized and fully integrated point of sale system speeds transactions and helps to make everything from handset selection to device protection a breeze.

Easy access to value added products like in store bill payment services are finding favor with cash-centric consumers who enjoy the convenience and speed of making walk-in bill payments. With bill pay, dealers earn additional revenue as well as their satisfied customers’ loyalty. Wireless Standard’s new Qpay and TIO bill pay integrations offer a faster, easier, and more accurate way for Cricket dealers to process bill payments for Cricket customers at the point of sale using one device and one process for handling sales transactions and processing bill payments.

“We’ve been traveling across the country meeting with Cricket dealers to better understand what features they need to improve their businesses,” says Gary Khabinski, B2B Soft CEO. “We’re looking forward to meeting with Cricket’s Missouri contingent and showing them how innovative integrations for automatic and accurate carrier activation and commission reconciliation can save them time and money.

GroupLogic® Wins “Innovation in Enterprise Security” Category at Eighth Annual Info Security Products Guide’s Global Excellence Awards

Info Security Product Guide Award Winner

Arlington, VA (PRWEB) March 01, 2012

GroupLogic®, the industry’s leading provider of software products that unlock the power of new enterprise platforms, announced today that it has been awarded the “Innovation in Enterprise Security” distinction at this year’s Info Security Products Guide’s Global Excellence Awards. GroupLogic was recognized for the 2011 release and debut of mobilEcho™, the industry’s first and only Mobile File Management (MFM) product for providing secure mobile file access.

Each year, the awards recognize security and IT vendors with advanced, groundbreaking products and solutions that are helping set the bar higher for others in all areas of technology. GroupLogic’s win recognizes the company and mobilEcho among the ‘best of the best’ in the industry.

“mobilEcho was developed so that enterprise IT could take advantage of the unbounded business benefits gained from providing mobile access to corporate files for employees, but without violating the security and compliance requirements enterprises face,” said Anders Lofgren, VP of Marketing and Product Management at GroupLogic. “This recognition from Info Security Products Guide further validates our clear commitment to our customers and addressing their enterprise security needs.”

Before mobilEcho, enterprise iPad and iPhone users were forced to use inherently flawed and unsecure workarounds to access files, including emailing files to themselves or uploading enterprise files into unsecured consumer-based cloud storage environments, violating corporate security, governance and compliance policies and increasing the risk for IT managers.

GroupLogic has solved this issue by enabling enterprise IT organizations to rapidly install mobilEcho, which provides them with simple, secure and managed Mobile File Management for users of mobile devices such as iPhone and iPad. Centrally managed by IT, mobilEcho connects directly to enterprise file servers, while also giving IT the control it needs with a remote wiping feature. This greatly mitigates risk and reduces stress for IT managers – making it easy for enterprises to embrace the consumerization of IT trend. To view a video of mobilEcho in action, please visit: http://www.grouplogic.com/enterprise-file-sharing/ipad-file-system/.

More than 50 judges from a broad spectrum of industry voices from around the world participated and their average scores determined the 2012 Global Excellence Awards finalists and winners. Winners were announced during an awards dinner and presentation on February 29, 2012 in San Francisco.

About GroupLogic

GroupLogic® helps enterprise and education IT organizations simply and securely integrate diverse computing platforms into enterprise environments, connecting employees to enterprise files, content and assets to facilitate a more productive and efficient work environment. With more than two decades of experience, GroupLogic leads the marketplace in helping IT organizations effectively and easily manage the integration of Apple products into the enterprise ecosystem. Whether IT organizations are looking to integrate existing Apple assets, purchase additional Apple hardware like Mac and iPad, or want to take advantage of the hardware costs savings that accompany the adoption of IT consumerization, GroupLogic enables IT organizations to easily and securely manage the rapid integration of diverse platforms while ensuring resources are optimized. GroupLogic enables the enterprise to focus on what is really important – competitive differentiation, improved employee productivity, mitigated risk and reduced costs.

Network Critical and Palo Alto Networks Become Technology Partners

Buffalo, NY (PRWEB) February 29, 2012

Network Critical, the leading innovator of next generation network access and port aggregation products announced today the addition of Palo Alto Networks to their Technology Partner Program. The program is designed to foster collaboration among select technology leaders with the goal of providing complete security and monitoring solutions to service provider, mobility and enterprise customers.

The blurring of lines between private and business communications coupled with the explosion of smart mobile devices creates a need for expanded security that includes application visibility, awareness and control that extends beyond the office to wherever mobile workers are. “Business critical data and corporate assets are increasingly being stored at the data center and accessed by a highly mobile workforce,” said Punit Minocha, Vice President of Business and Corporate Development at Palo Alto Networks. “As such, it is crucial that our customers benefit the most from their network security investments for the entire infrastructure – from deep within the data center to smartphones and tablets at use in the distributed enterprise.”

A permanent and flexible network access foundation is critical to the design of next generation security architectures. Carrie Manion, Global Vice President of Sales and Marketing said, “Network Critical and Palo Alto Networks are both dedicated to enabling their customers to stay focused on business operations and not on the task of network administration. By providing risk free, simplified access to next generation security devices, Network Critical helps customers strengthen network protection while maintaining the highest level of network reliability and availability.”

About Network Critical

Network Critical is a leader in network access technology. Our technology ensures 100% continuous network visibility. NC products eliminate any concerns of downtime and scale easily as the network grows. The health of your network is always secure with Network Critical products. The 1G to 10G TAPs are used with IDS, IPS, network traffic monitoring tools, sniffers and more, to provide 100% network visibility with zero packet loss.

Network Critical is a global access technology solution provider with operations based in Buffalo, NY USA. For more information, visit http://www.networkcritical.com.

About Palo Alto Networks

Palo Alto Networks™ is the network security company. Its next-generation firewalls enable unprecedented visibility and granular policy control of applications and content – by user, not just IP address – at up to 20Gbps with no performance degradation. Based on patent-pending App-ID™ technology, Palo Alto Networks firewalls accurately identify and control applications – regardless of port, protocol, evasive tactic or SSL encryption – and scan content to stop threats and prevent data leakage. Enterprises can for the first time embrace Web 2.0 and maintain complete visibility and control, while significantly reducing total cost of ownership through device consolidation. Most recently, Palo Alto Networks has enabled enterprises to extend this same network security to remote users with the release of GlobalProtect™ and to combat targeted malware with its WildFire™ service.
