River Run Software Group’s Wireless Software Wins Another Award

Las Vegas, September 11, 2000: River Run Software Group, Inc. today announced that one its software products was a key component in the wireless data solution for United Airlines which received a Moby Award from Mobile Insights at the Go Mobile 2000 conference in Las Vegas. The Moby Award was created by Mobile Insights to honor companies who have deployed an outstanding mobile solution in their organizations within the last twelve months.

The wireless data solution which was piloted by United Airlines internal mobile sales force included River Run Software Group’s award-winning Mail on the Run!^®, which gives mobile professionals full function remote wireless access to their corporate e-mail and groupware systems. The Mail on the Run! product is part of the award-winning River Run OnSite ^TM family of products that are designed to replicate a day in the life of a mobile individual, from wirelessly picking up assignments to capturing data on the mobile device to synchronizing the new information with the corporate back-end system.

All these companies are members of the WirelessReady ^TM Alliance, founded by Sierra Wireless, which strives for members to work together to build complete and compelling wireless data solutions. This solution and the Moby Award represent a significant achievement for the WirelessReady Alliance.

“The key to the success of this pilot project was the successful way in which the various teams worked together. The key to our teaming strategy was the guidance and leadership that River Run provided to the group,” said Robert Emanuel, manager, Application Development, United Airlines. “Not only did their software product work for us, but they also provided the proper support to make the project successful. Applications needs, network design, business analysis and technical analysis were all available to us as we needed them.”

In this instance, United Airlines selected one of River Run’s award-winning software products, and it clearly met the needs of their internal mobile sales force,” said Theresa Nozick, Industry Analyst and Vice President of Publishing, Mobile Insights.
