Zenprise
Zenprise provided Mobile Device Management (MDM) solutions to enterprises. The company's solutions were available in both on-premise and cloud-based (SaaS) versions. Zenprise MobileManager and Zencloud allowed companies and government agencies to manage and secure mobile devices, including iOS, Android, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, and Symbian. History 

Zenprise was co-founded in 2003 by Waheed Qureshi & Jayaram Bhat. Initially the company developed remote support and diagnostics software to help companies manage large-scale BlackBerry deployments. As the market evolved to enterprises supporting a diverse set of smartphones and tablets, Zenprise shifted its product development efforts to support the major mobile platforms, including iPhone and iPad, Android, BlackBerry, Symbian, and Windows Mobile. In 2010, Zenprise acquired French Mobile Device Management vendor, Sparus Software, and integrated Sparus’s software into its core product offering. In July 2011, Zenprise launched Zencloud, the cloud version of its Mobile Device Management software. Zencloud is hosted in globally-redundant, SAS70 Type II-, FISMA Moderate-compliant, and Federal Cloud Certified facilities. In September 2011, Zenprise developed and launched a free application on Splunkbase. Called Zenprise Mobile Security Intelligence, the application integrates with Zenprise mobile device management software, and provides visibility into mobile users and mobile device traffic. In September 2011, Zenprise launched their Mobile Data Leakage Prevention (DLP) solution, which provides a secure document container for mobile devices as well policy-based control over content. In October 2011, Zenprise raised $30 million from investors, including Bay Partners, Ignition Partners, Mayfield Fund, Rembrandt Venture Partners, Shasta Ventures, and newly added venture firm, Greylock Partners. In December 2012 Citrix announced its intent to acquire Zenprise. The acquisition closed in January 2013. Products and features
