Vendors Selected for the "Cool Vendor" Report are Innovative, Impactful and Intriguing

MOUNTAIN VIEW, California, April 27, 2010 - MobileIron, the first company to deliver virtualized smartphone
management, has been included in the "Cool Vendors in Enterprise Networking,
2010" report published on April 9, 2010 by Michael King et al, of Gartner,
Inc. In the report, Gartner states "Technology providers that qualify as cool
vendors must think very far out of the box and provide solutions that are
potential game-changers."

Enterprise mobility is in need of such innovation. IT departments are
losing control of smartphones due to the challenges of fragmented platforms,
user-driven computing, and increasing wireless costs, yet they retain all the
accountability. MobileIron's solution combines data-driven smartphone
management with real-time wireless cost control. It provides visibility into
what's on a smartphone and how it's being used, letting both IT and users
better secure data and control costs without compromising privacy, even on
employee-owned phones.

"We consider our inclusion in the Cool Vendor report by Gartner
confirmation of our mission to solve the challenges CIOs face as business
data moves to the smartphone," said Bob Tinker, CEO of MobileIron.
"Smartphones are more difficult to manage than laptops ever were. Companies
need a scalable solution and that is why we built the MobileIron Virtual
Smartphone Platform."
