IBM Expands MobileFirst for iOS Portfolio With Three New Apps

IBM on Monday announced the expansion of its MobileFirst for iOS portfolio with three new enterprise apps for the banking and financial services, airline and retail industries. The new made-for-business apps available for customization and deployment in the enterprise today include Passenger Care for travel agents, Dynamic Buy for retail buyers and Advisor Alerts for financial professionals.

"Apple and IBM are the only companies that could partner to develop a new category of made-for-business apps that is truly transforming how works gets done," said Fred Balboni, IBM General Manager, IBM and Apple partnership. "We set out to transform how millions of workers consume, process and use information when they are outside the four walls of the office. Our goal is to boost the performance of every enterprise by making all its data and processes available to any employee with an iOS device - anytime, anywhere."
