Motorola Debuts Comprehensive Solutions Catalog -- a Destination to Find Applications for Motorola Products
Catalog connects end users with solutions to enhance their Motorola product experience
Serves as channel for MOTODEV developers to market their applications
SAN JOSE, Calif. – 12 September 2007 – Motorola, Inc. (NYSE: MOT) today announced the public beta launch of its first-ever comprehensive solutions catalog, an online collection of third-party software designed to bring consumers and enterprise users the latest games, tools, productivity and line of business applications to further enhance and personalize their Motorola products. The catalog also provides developers registered with MOTODEV, the Motorola developer network, an excellent opportunity to market their applications to Motorola product users.
“Applications are key to differentiating and enhancing the overall product experience,” said Christy Wyatt, vice president, software platforms and ecosystem, Motorola. “By using our new Motorola Solutions Catalog, developers can easily and quickly bring their innovative applications directly to end users so they can do even more with their Motorola products."
In its initial release, the Motorola Solutions Catalog offers an array of applications for Motorola mobile devices -- including the popular Guitar Legend game from Gameloft, unique mVisualVoiceMail application from MotionApps, and AMPower mobile business solutions from Antenna Software -- allowing device users to do everything from discovering the latest on-the-go entertainment options to exploring applications that make their work life more productive. Easy to navigate, applications can be sorted by carrier and carrier-supported devices categories, as well as through keyword and advanced search functions. To purchase, users simply follow the link provided in the description. As developers add applications, users can stay up-to-date on new additions, see the most popular titles, and browse through Motorola’s picks for best applications.
For MOTODEV developers, the catalog offers a fast and intuitive interface for entering their solution -- including the ability to add descriptions, screen shots, device compatibility information, search terms and links to purchase.
"Motorola’s Solutions Catalog is a promising channel for getting our enterprise mobility solutions in front of a wide range of potential users,” said Karen Davis-Farage, vice president, business development at Antenna Software. “It’s an essential tool for Motorola users to discover the latest and most innovative applications available to them -- such as our leading mobile business solutions, AMPower SALES and AMPower SERVICE.”
“By featuring our applications on the new Motorola Solutions Catalog, we're effectively creating additional visibility for our solutions,” said Gonzague de Vallois, vice president of publishing, Gameloft. “Leveraging this new channel to market will enable us to build a broader base of users and drive further awareness around hot new Gameloft mobile games like Guitar Legend.”
