COMPANY

Funambol provides white-label cloud solutions to mobile operators and other service providers. Funambol solutions include a personal cloud, business cloud, IoT cloud and SIM cloud. The company's solutions are deployed in 50 countries for hundreds of millions of people.

Funambol operates in the cloud services market. Over-The-Top (OTT) consumer clouds include Apple iCloud, Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive and Dropbox. Funambol's OneMediaHub differentiates itself from the OTT solutions by providing a feature rich, flexible, white-label (branded to a mobile operator's requirements), digital life-centric personal cloud solution.

Funambol's OneMediaHub solution can be hosted 'on-premise' or be hosted in a third party cloud environment. Business cloud competitors include enterprise versions of the above, e.g. Box and Dropbox for Business. Funambol's OneBizHub differs from the OTTs as it is a white-label offering, with features, usability and security aimed specifically for small & medium businesses and can be deployed on-premises or in the cloud. Funambol's management team has extensive experience in the mobile cloud market.

The name Funambol is derived from the Italian word 'funambolo' which means tightrope walker. The company uses this symbol to reflect its confidence and persistence while solving difficult technical and competitive challenges. Funambol has received many industry awards for its technical excellence:
