"We are excited to partner with BoxTone, expanding our mutual network of mobility leaders that include RIM(R), BT(R), O2(R)and Neverfail(R)," said Ken Hodgson, Sales Director of Interchange Group. "We surveyed the marketplace and quickly recognized that BoxTone is the undisputed leader in mobile user management for the BlackBerry platform.

Said Alan Calverley, gateway team leader for BT for the project: "BoxTone acts like an expert system. It incorporates a lot of knowledge about BlackBerry Enterprise Server errors that enables it to automatically interpret error messages and provide suggested fixes." Added Calverley, "Without BoxTone, we might not know there was a problem until a user called and told us; now we can see the issue before the user is aware of it and investigate it proactively."
Both BoxTone and Interchange Group are long-time members of the BlackBerry Alliance Program, which assisted in forming the relationship.
Called "one-of-a-kind" by the editors of Windows IT Pro and a "complete platform" by The 451 Group, BoxTone is the only BlackBerry management and monitoring software to measure and correlate every BlackBerry email and application flow for every user from end to end, enabling companies to proactively identify, resolve and prevent BlackBerry service quality issues.
