End2End ensures quality service delivery for Smart Global
End2End, Europe’s leading B2B managed service solution provider for mobile data services and content, today announced that it has successfully deployed SurfKitchen’s SurfKit Mobile solution for Smart Global.
The Smart Global service, called Smart BizChannel, enables mobile users within small and medium enterprises in the UK to keep abreast of breaking global and financial news, including stock market information. Smart BizChannel offers two Reuters channels: news and business. Each comprises 5 categories delivering up-to-the-minute news directly to the subscribers’ mobile device.
Smart BizChannel is powered by SurfKitchen’s SurfKit Mobile solution, which is being delivered as a managed service with End2End.
“We selected SurfKitchen’s solution because it allowed us to create the ultimate dynamic user experience,” said Rachel Perry, COO, Smart Global. “We chose to have it delivered as a managed service to reduce general risk, speed time-to-market, and guarantee high quality service delivery for our users.”
