BlackBerry: develops taxi-hailing solution with Android

(CercleFinance.com) - BlackBerry has joined forces with Google's Android to develop a secure enterprise solution for online taxi-hailing company MiCab, the Canadian firm said on Thursday.


The former smartphone maker - which has successfully turned into a software and services company that secures the Enterprise of Things - has said that it has provided MiCab with an integrated cloud solution that maintains data privacy.

This means that MiCab has rolled out approximately 12,000 seven-inch Android tablets to its fleet of drivers secured by BlackBerry UEM, supported by Smart, and fully integrated with Android Enterprise.

MiCab plans to scale up the deployment to 15,000 devices by the end of 2018.

The move is part of BlackBerry's partnership with Android and PLDT Enterprise, through Smart Communications.
