FusionOne Protects Over 200 Million Mobile Phone Contacts for Customers Using Mobile Phone Backup Service
With one out of six mobile phones lost, stolen or damaged annually, FusionOne Services provide protection for users’ mobile phone content
San Jose, CA - May 22nd, 2007
FusionOne, the leading provider of mobile phone synchronization services, today announced that its mobile phone backup service now protects more than 200 million contacts for millions of mobile phone subscribers. FusionOne offers this powerful service in partnership with mobile carriers throughout North America and Asia under a variety of names for around $1.99 per month. FusionOne pioneered mobile phone backup and continues to innovate new products based on FusionOne’s powerful and patented synchronization technology, the Mighty Mobile Services Platform.
“Consumers love the stuff that’s in their phone and they wince at the thought of losing it all and having to start over. That’s why FusionOne’s backup service is a mobile must-have,” said Rick Onyon, FusionOne’s CEO & Founder. “The mobile industry is also excited about this service because the customer experience is so positive when a user upgrades or replaces a lost or damaged phone.”
“FusionOne MightyBackup is a lifesaver. My phone was in hundreds of pieces, after I ran over it with my own van,” said Jeff Savage of Lore City, Ohio. Luckily a few months prior, Savage had signed up for the FusionOne MightyBackup service. “Without MightyBackup, I would have lost everything. The day I purchased my new phone, all of my contacts were back in place. I have all my contacts on my phone—my family, friends, work contacts, places I like to go—everything! I thought I had lost it all. FusionOne’s MightyBackup restored everything. I didn’t have to do anything.”
With 2.8 billion mobile phones worldwide, the mobile phone plays a vital role for the consumer. FusionOne continues to lead the mobile marketplace by expanding mobile phone backup functionality to include a full host of content types stored on a mobile phone, including user-generated and licensed content. Recent releases of FusionOne’s backup service will safeguard music, pictures, ringtones, video clips, text message and other mobile content types. Content is protected on a secure website, kept up-to-date and automatically transferred when a user replaces or upgrades their phone. With the increase in capability and in content, the loss of a phone is more catastrophic than ever before.
