"BoxTone is delighted to be named a Hot Company to Watch by Forrester Research," said Alan Snyder, CEO, BoxTone. "The analyst report notes that BoxTone software's real-time reporting capabilities, security features, and reporting tools help organizations be more efficient and effective with their mobility dollars. That potent combination enabled BoxTone to finish the most recent fiscal year on a double-digit growth trajectory.
