Model Metrics, a leading cloud computing technology and services company that partners with the likes of salesforce.com and Amazon Web Services, sees the iPhone 3G S as a way to boost productivity among its consultants and developers nationwide.

With the release of the iPhone 3G S, Model Metrics' fast growing team of consultants and developers will rely on a single mobile communication platform to ensure client success. Model Metrics will not only standardize existing employees on the iPhone, but also advance the iPhone as the recommended device of choice going forward for the rapidly expanding team of developers and consultants to be hired.

"As an organization enabling cloud computing solutions for companies across North America and the world, and with consultants and developers working in real time with clients to enable solutions within days or weeks instead of months, we place significant value on the mobile communication devices we use," said Model Metrics Chief Executive Officer Adam Caplan. "With the release of the new 3G S and its ability to launch applications and web sites twice as fast as previous models, standardizing communications across the organization on the iPhone is without doubt the most productive choice for us."

Model Metrics has developed cloud computing solutions for some of the nation's largest and most innovative companies across nearly every industry. These solutions leverage the newest technologies such as mobile solutions using the iPhone and Force.com Sites from salesforce.com, as well as some of the most scalable cloud services from Amazon Web Services.

One of Model Metrics' primary areas of expertise is the development of cloud-based mobile solutions for its clients, the fastest growth area for the company. Model Metrics has created custom mobile solutions for clients as well as applications for the iPhone and iPod Touch that are now available on Apple's iTunes App Store, including several applications that help iPhone users connect to Salesforce CRM and the Force.com Platform from salesforce.com. These applications - Search2GO, Calendar2GO, Expense2GO, and Lasso2GO - can be downloaded now from Apple's(R) iTunes App Store.

Model Metrics' own team of consultants and developers rely heavily on Calendar2GO to ensure they have 24/7 mobile access to their Salesforce CRM calendars, while leveraging Search2GO to quickly find a client's phone number or email through their iPhone in the Salesforce CRM database, and then seamlessly open a Google map to plot the address.

Likewise, Model Metrics' sales and marketing teams utilize Lasso2GO to easily capture registrations at tradeshow booths or automatically add key contacts at prospect and customer accounts by simply taking a picture of their business cards.

In addition to the increased speed and core functionality of the iPhone 3G S, the ability to manage critical client information quickly and easily directly from the iPhone saves time every day for Model Metrics' consultants and developers, allowing more time for innovation on behalf of clients.

Model Metrics has created custom mobile solutions for large financial services and life sciences companies to enable Salesforce CRM in an offline environment. For these solutions, Model Metrics turned to Adobe AIR to enable elegant offline instances of the salesforce.com solution with a user interface specifically designed for each customer's unique requirements.
