Brussels, 30 October 2014 – More and more companies are equipping themselves with tablets and smartphones so as to be able to adequately meet their mobility needs. Yet few of them possess a fleet management tool for their mobile devices. Mobifleet, a service created in partnership between Systemat and Mobistar, handles the management of the mobile device fleet for small and medium-sized companies in a simple, secure and professional manner.
A study conducted by the consultancy office Gfk in March 2014 revealed that 1 Belgian company in 4 plans to equip itself with tablets between now and the end of the year and intends to purchase or develop mobile applications.
By contrast, 1 company in 3 hasn’t introduced a solution for managing its fleet of mobile equipment (smartphones or tablets), for example to manage their users, give them support or assure the security aspects.
Within the context of developing its strategy aimed at supporting corporate mobility, Mobistar, in partnership with Systemat, is offering Mobifleet, a new service permitting companies to outsource the management of their fleet of mobile devices.
Thanks to Mobifleet, companies that entrust the management of their mobile device fleet to Mobistar enjoy the following advantages:
Mobifleet is designed for companies with from 1 to 50 employees equipped with mobile devices and is proposed at a monthly rate per user of 15€/month (excluding VAT). In addition, Mobistar proposes an attractive connectivity offer for companies.
Systemat – Mobistar partnership
An omnipresent player when it comes to mobile device fleet management for large companies, Systemat possesses great expertise in this field. Mobistar wished to propose a similar offer adapted to smaller companies, and naturally it turned to Systemat for the introduction of Mobifleet. This partnership makes it possible to offer a highly professional mobile device fleet management solution for small and medium-sized companies.
Vincent Schaller, co-owner and CCO of Systemat: “Systemat has solid expertise in mobile fleet management solutions for companies having over 100 employees, and it wished to put its competencies at the service of SMEs. That´s why we wanted to become a partner of Mobistar and help introduce Mobifleet. At Systemat, we believe that together with Mobistar we can contribute to the mobility of companies.”
For Stéphane Beauduin, Chief Enterprise and Wholesales Officer of Mobistar: “Corporate mobility is a strong strategic axis for Mobistar. We were looking for a partner in Belgium who shares our vision, and Systemat enabled us to design our Mobifleet service by benefiting from their expertise. Thanks to its proximity to SMEs, Mobistar is henceforth able to propose a top-quality offer for managing mobile device fleets. Mobifleet forms an integral part of the range of services offered by Mobistar that enable companies to profit from the mobility explosion.”
