Quotes Read what industry analysts, our customers and partners and the press are saying about iPass and our services.
"If you think about it, iPass is almost the perfect platform for offering software-as-a-service for the remote and mobile worker. None of the big security-software players have this capability, which makes iPass an attractive partner." —Eric Appel, Merriman Curhan Ford, May 16, 2006 "The average remote or mobile worker cares more about productivity than IT security, which can leave the corporate network open to attack. The promise of increased productivity from mobile devices must be balanced with strong security policies, but the trick is getting end-users to comply. iPass Endpoint Policy Management 4.0 is focused on removing the inconvenience of managing hundreds of remote and mobile devices while allowing IT to retain full control over keeping users compliant." —Chris Christiansen, IDC, May 15, 2006 "[iPass] is a poster child of a company that solves network problems." —Robert Whiteley, Forrester Research, March 17, 2006
"Both Real Mex and our customers have experienced the benefits of the iPass solution. Our customers are served more efficiently, our employees are more productive and the price performance of the system has exceeded our expectations. It's secure, fast and cost-effective—we're very happy with our decision." —John Koontz, Vice President of IT, Real Mex Restaurants, June 15, 2006 "A lot of our employees have commented on how easy the service is to use. Even the construction workers, for whom IT can sometimes be more of a hindrance than an enabler, were quick to embrace the service. iPass and ETT proved a good team to work with and the flexibility of iPass' product is a perfect fit for our requirements. The time savings and increase in employee productivity that iPass has enabled us have been huge, not to mention the boost in morale that having quick and reliable access has given our remote workers." —Dominique Jung, Systems, Network and Telecoms Manager, Bouygues Construction, May 2006 "Our users were ecstatic [about iPass.] They received a better, faster service with more access points and one less password to deal with. From IT's point of view, our bill dropped from $4,000 per month to $1,300, and our help desk calls are way down because we no longer have remote access password issues." —Jason Bergeron, IT Director, Palliser Furniture Ltd., May 2006 "Endpoint Policy Management helps maintain secure access to patient data and assists us with HIPAA compliance. The powerful remote management features are vital in helping us keep patient records up-to-date, from admission to release, as we utilize a variety of tablet and handheld devices at our facilities." —Kevin Stanfield, Client Device Administrator for the Davenport, Iowa Medical Center, Genesis Health System, April 2006 "Our sales and service organization absolutely love iPass Mobile Data. Today they're able to show customers information that simply wasn't available before. It's a great way to demonstrate how we use technology to deliver business value." — Jeff Zurflueh, Information Services Manager, Carreker Corporation, March 2006 "Today, we use the solution for patch management, software installation and hardware and software inventory. We're even using it in the critical segments of our 911 center. Anything we install in our 911 center absolutely has to work—and Endpoint Policy Management does." —Gary Estes, Data System Manager, Warren County Public Safety Network, February 2006 "Despite having more employees logging on than ever before, our costs have gone down. iPass has removed the need for us to have relationships with separate ISPs, providing local access numbers where possible. iPass' management capabilities also mean that we've improved control of individual usage policies." —Keith Mitchell, Global Head of Shared Infrastructure, Reuters, December 2005 "Reuters' employees work in some of the most difficult and uncompromising situations and the last thing they want to worry about is getting connected. We identified iPass as having a technically robust service with a large coverage network that could offer us the service and security we needed. Protecting the integrity of our networks with so many remote workers is difficult; iPass integrates seamlessly with our VPN, personal firewall and anti-virus software to ensure that remote workers are as secure as their office-based counterparts. In addition, iPass showed a real willingness to work with us to identify new points of presence as it expanded its virtual network." —Keith Mitchell, Global Head of Shared Infrastructure, Reuters, December 2005 "I couldn't strike enough vendor agreements around the country to replicate this type of access [that iPass provides.] And having a single interface saves time for employees, eliminating the need to search out networks from different applications on their laptops and mobile devices." —Mark Day, CIO, Environmental Protection Agency, November 28, 2005 "The iPass solution lets us update our remote systems on the fly. Deployments are now in hours and days versus weeks and months. For example, just last week, our technical support staff needed a software update so they could diagnose an urgent emerging issue. I had the update written and deployed in 45 minutes. It would've taken weeks to do that the old way." —Dan Hullinger, EZTech Project Manager, International Truck and Engine Corporation, October 2005

Geared towards enhanced productivity, our SMB customers in Asia Pacific can now purchase HP Notebooks that include a special offer for the iPass Corporate Access™ mobile workforce solution. Furthermore, connection is simple through a reliable and secure mobility platform powered by an easy-to-use and cost-effective broadband connectivity solution." —Dennis Mark, Vice President – Marketing, Personal Systems Group, HP Asia Pacific and Japan, May 16, 2006 "It goes without saying that remote and mobile working come as second nature to Nokia customers and employees. We recognize that ubiquitous connectivity and a simple and easy-to-use way of accessing resources remotely is paramount. The iPass service delivers intuitive wireless connectivity for Nokia business devices. Customers may conveniently and securely connect from thousands of global Wi-Fi access locations at premium business locations such as airports, hotels and convention centers." —Susan Macke, Vice President, Product Marketing, Enterprise Solutions, Nokia, April 26, 2006 "iPass is widely recognized for its operator-agnostic approach and this has resulted in them building a significant customer base, and the most admired enterprise-grade aggregated network available.

Having been certified as Enterprise Ready by iPass, we can further our ability to have these business customers benefit from the Swisscom Mobile WiFi service to enable secure access to corporate networks for increased productivity." —Georges Schlegel, Head of Business Marketing, Swisscom Mobile, April 10, 2006 "iPass is a truly visionary player in the enterprise connectivity market and one of our key strategic partners across the world. Our existing partnership with them in the US has been very successful and brought many customers to our network. We are looking forward to seeing the same impact in Europe." —Andre Stark, EVP of Business Marketing, T-Mobile International, April 3, 2006
"The continually growing list of iPass' corporate clients backs the opinion that its business model is more defensible than you might think. Building out its network has taken a mix of proprietary software and relationship building that is not so easy to duplicate." —Jonathan Moreland, "Not Passing on iPass" (TheStreet.com), May 16, 2006 TheStreet.com"iPass' technology presents a compelling proposition for customers." —Jonathan Moreland, "Not Passing on iPass", May 16, 2006 "It's not clear how many hotspots there are in the world above the somewhat formally counted and enumerated 100,000 that JiWire has in their database. But it's clear that iPass having 50,000 locations in its aggregated network that it resells to corporate clients gives it about half of all the professionally operated, purposely public and persistent hotspots on the planet." —Glenn Fleishman, "iPass Tops 50,000 Hotspots" (Wi-Fi Net News), April 12, 2006 "iPass has already made significant progress in building a vast wireless broadband network. The company has signed roaming agreements with Wi-Fi providers such as T-Mobile, BT Openzone and Boeing's in-flight Wi-Fi service." —Nikhil Hutheesing, Editor of Forbes Wireless Stock Watch, Quoted in John Dobosz's "iPass Shifts Into Passing Gear" (Forbes.com), March 8, 2006 "iPass has a wealth of corporate customers, highly respected security software and a solid financial position." —Nikhil Hutheesing, Editor of Forbes Wireless Stock Watch, Quoted in John Dobosz's "iPass Shifts Into Passing Gear" (Forbes.com), March 8, 2006 "As announced in December 2006, iPass bought out rival GoRemote—and as of today the acquisition is complete, giving iPass a veritable stranglehold on enterprise remote access." —Eric Griffith, "Hotspot Hits" (Wi-Fi Planet), February 16, 2006 "Technologies of the type iPass provides could prove valuable among the growing legions of employers that are considering telecommuting to reduce employee travel time, cut office real-estate costs, help workers balance their work and home lives, and increase productivity." —Elena Malykhina, "Telecommuting: An EPA Energy Credit" (InformationWeek), November 28, 2005 "iPass has done a great job positioning itself as a one-stop shop for companies wanting Internet access. It sure beats having to go to different ISPs and negotiate separate deals." —Matt Krantz, "iPass Aims for Net Difference" (USA Today), March 23, 2005
