providing valuable cloud and mobility solutions to customers of all

“Employees are more mobile and decentralized so the need for robust
office productivity, collaboration and secure file storage for
businesses large and small are simply a reflection of the degree to
which the very nature of the workplace is changing,” said Mike Sapien,
principal analyst at Ovum. “There is a growing need for solutions built
around mobile collaboration that is both well integrated and reliable.
The role that Sprint will serve as a major mobility provider with
