Ireland-Based Inhance Technology Opens North American Sales Office To Drive Growth

April 29, 2013 — Leading mobile anti-theft, recovery and security software provider, Inhance Technology, based in Cork, Ireland, opens its US office in Cambridge, Massachusetts this month to support US sales, marketing and clients. Inhance Technology drives mobile device insurance profitability, supporting; CE retailers, warranty and insurance providers with unique technology that complements their offerings with highly advanced data security and device recovery programs.

With a growing customer base in North America and Canada including; Best Buy, AmTrust Warrantech, AIMIA, Global Warranty and CPP Groups, Inhance is the only mobile security provider of its kind, singularly focused on the warranty and insurance markets with its programs increasing attach rates and customer retention while also helping to eliminate fraud.

Sales of smart devices are growing by about 21% per year according to IDC. This is driving massive growth in mobile device insurance, as consumers have concerns of; identity theft, losing valuable content, cost of replacements and bank account details being intercepted.

Inhance Technology’s software, which can be customized for specific retailers, enables tracking and securing phones, laptops and tablets, allowing consumers to lock down their device anywhere in the world. The software offers the ability to; capture a picture of the surrounding area when the device is lost or stolen, activate a scream feature that emits a screeching sound to alert people nearby of a problem, and also allows users to wipe the device completely if needed.

Paul Leahy, Director of Global Business Development, Inhance Technology, will head up the North American office with a growing client support and sales team. “We are excited at the prospect of providing North American and Canadian customers with our unique and compelling offering,” stated Leahy. “Furthermore our location will assist our Central and South American strategies” “We believe that we can derive success by enabling our customers to be more successful themselves. We will accomplish this by providing technologies that enhance the value of our customer’s offering. It’s a win-win situation, specifically engineered for the times in which we live.”

January 30, 2013 — Underscoring its B2B market positioning and overall value proposition to support warranty and insurance providers with unique, patented technology and service packages that complement their offerings and have been proven to increase attach rates, reduce churn and limit fraud, Yougetitback has rebranded as Inhance Technology. In doing so, the company is providing clients and partners with a clearer understanding of the company’s capabilities, markets served and category-leading security technologies for mobile devices.

Inhance Technology is the only organization of its kind — worldwide — that is singularly focused on providing warranty and insurance organizations with technology and service programs for mobile devices. According to company CEO Paul Prendergast, this focus was central to the decision to rebrand.

“We have purposely migrated our business to a position of compelling value to our B2B clients and — as a result — our programs now enhance the warranty and insurance programs of some of the world’s leading retail, insurance and telecommunications brands,” Prendergast noted today. “As we are about to open a North America sales and support office and also embark on a growth drive in the emerging markets, the timing is now optimal to adopt a more communicative, accurate brand message.”

Inhance Technology service, which can be customized for each retailer, offers solutions that protect the valuable data held in smart devices, with a straightforward process that gives the consumer peace of mind.

686 Million Smartphones Expected To Be Sold By The End Of The Year, YOUGETITBACK Can Protect Them

CORK, Ireland— With nearly 686 million smartphones predicted to be sold worldwide by the end of 2012, warranty and insurance providers are mitigating risk and providing customers with additional value and security with a unique technology from Irish company, Yougetitback.

The increasing popularity of smartphones has resulted in a growth of 42.7% in Q2 of 2012. This increased popularity comes with the increase of valuable information that is stored on such devices. Cellphone theft is one of the fastest growing crimes in the United States and has even surpassed the theft of cash.

Yougetitback’s service differs greatly from others, including the use of a “bricking” method that was introduced in conjunction with the FCC-CTIA initiative where Yougetitback has the ability to take a Picture of the surrounding area once the device is lost or stolen; it also emits a Screeching sound, alerting members all around of the perpetrator; and has the ability to remotely Fry the phone completely, making the data worthless to any thief.

The growth of mobile malware has also increased with the addition of viruses, worms and malicious software used by hackers. Recent reports state that less than 1 in 20 smartphones and tablets have third-party security software installed in them, despite the increase in threats.

“Providing the warranty and insurance market with a foolproof system to track devices is a top priority,” says Paul Prendergast, CEO and Founder, Yougetitback. “We develop solutions which provide peace of mind for users of mobile devices. We work with large organizations that in turn provide our service to their customers. By doing so we allow enterprises such as Best Buy to achieve key objectives whether it be data capture, mobile commerce rollout, revenue generation or churn reduction.”

“With the increase of apps available to smartphone users, consumer are constantly accumulating personal data on their device like never before,” states Prendergast. “Storing valuable information including bank account details and credit card numbers has made them an increased target for criminals. Apple’s new Passbook app will open the door to even more mobile commerce, and in the wrong hands, that information could cause great harm. Yougetitback is a simple solution to solve a growing problem.”
