Background
FusionOne was founded in 1998 with the goal of creating high-impact products and services for users of mobile devices. We began by developing our powerful, synchronization technology platform.
In 1999 we launched our first product based on this platform - the FusionOne synchronization service. This service enabled users - for the very first time - to easily and securely synchronize a broad range of files, including e-mail, calendar, browser settings and music.
In 2001, the FusionOne platform was extended to support the growing need for wireless mobile device synchronization. FusionOne also led industry efforts to establish an open standard for mobile synchronization - SyncML.
FusionOne's MightyPhone service was unveiled in 2002 and continues to support more than 100 handsets from top manufacturers such as Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Motorola.
FusionOne and Verizon Wireless launched the first fully automatic mobile content backup service in 2004. Today, Backup Assistant for Verizon Wireless, a Verizon branded version of FusionOne’s MightyBackup service, is the most popular and successful service in the mobile phone industry. Backup Assistant was recently ranked in the top ten among revenue-generating downloadable mobile applications for all carriers. (According to a recent report issued by Telephia, the leading provider of performance measurement information for the mobile industry.)
FusionOne's growth revolves around the phenomenal rise in the use of mobile phones around the world, and in the way those phones impact the lives of people everywhere. We remain passionately focused on anticipating and exceeding the needs of the mobile user.
