Intermec acquires GATC
Intermec, Inc. (NYSE: IN) has announced the acquisition of Prague-based software development company GATC and their Skynax software solution. Skynax offers customers a complete communication software that manages data across multiple devices and communication layers for increased efficiency. The addition of Skynax and recent releases of Intermec INcontrol and VERDEX further strengthen Intermec's portfolio of service and software offerings.
Officially replacing Intermec's 6920 Communication Server at the end of 2010, Skynax reduces the life-cycle management costs of mobile computing systems and accelerates the development and deployment of new mobile business applications by offering a unified platform that saves both time and money. According to a recent VDC Research report the most common reason end-users request support regarding wireless communications is because of phone connectivity issues. Skynax allows IT managers to focus beyond common mobility issues such as unexpected loss of wireless network coverage, high network latency and low bandwidth.
