Funambol Webinar, "The Business Case for the Personal Cloud", Helps Mobile Companies Formulate Their Digital Locker Strategy

Learn what users really want and how to compete with services from Apple, Google, Amazon, and others, while increasing revenue, retention and reach

FOSTER CITY, Calif., October 19, 2011 -- Funambol, the leader of white-label personal cloud solutions for mobile phones and devices, is conducting a free webinar on November 2nd that covers the three R's - revenue, retention and reach - that mobile companies seek in personal cloud strategies.

The market for personal clouds is growing rapidly, with services from Apple, Google, Amazon and others. At the same time, mobile companies, including operators, device makers and content providers, are considering introducing their own personal cloud services but have an array of questions. For instance, what are the essential personal cloud features, data and devices? Considering some services use a freemium model, how can providers compete against them and generate a profit? What is the compelling business case for a mobile company to offer a personal cloud?

This free webinar discusses these questions and the approaches employed by real world providers. Funambol will disclose what users really want in a personal cloud, how different services compare and how to monetize a personal cloud user base. It includes case studies of global companies deploying personal cloud services as well as a demonstration of the Funambol MediaHub solution.

When: Wednesday, November 2, 2011, 8 a.m. PT

Where: Register at https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/904923417

Presenter: Hal Steger, Funambol VP Marketing
