BlackBerry has announced an expansion of its enterprise application ecosystem available on the BlackBerry Classic, including partnerships with Aderant, Bighand, Bloomberg, Box, CellTrak Technologies, Cisco Systems, Entrust, GoldCare, InterAct, Onset Technology, Rekoop, Salient Federal Solutions, and SAP.
The growing catalog of enterprise applications focused on specific industries – including healthcare, financial and professional services – signals that more and more partners are choosing BlackBerry and its new BlackBerry Classic as the platform of choice to offer secure and productivity enhancing solutions to customers.
“BlackBerry is committed to working with its partners to deliver the applications necessary for our customers to be productive at work and on-to-go,” says Peter Ng, BlackBerry’s senior director of Global Alliances and Business Development at BlackBerry. “We continue to listen to our customers and we are actively working to deliver secure vertical applications, whether they are helping patients in a hospital, looking for real-time marketing trading information, or filing legal documentation while on the road visiting clients.”
BlackBerry’s enterprise applications help organisations and their employees be more productive, and collaborate and communicate more efficiently, while also giving them the confidence to do business with the security and privacy only BlackBerry offers.
