From the past one year, KORE has included support for 63 new devices that are in demand in vertical industries such as telehealth, payment processing and utilities. In 2009, more than 20 percent of the company's net device additions came from health-related applications.
 
Alex Brisbourne, president and COO, KORE Telematics said that offering wide range of of both GSM and CDMA devices is essential to getting our partners' M2M applications to market as quickly as possible. He explained that pre-approved devices eliminate the time and cost demands associated with bringing new end-use scenarios on line, so that our partners can focus exclusively on developing the M2M applications that will reduce more costs, improve more lives and produce more top-line growth.
 
KORE Telematics supports an extensive pool of devices, all offered on the M2M industry's most reliable and ubiquitous IP network. KORE supports 341 GSM devices across 95 vendors, including Cinterion, Sierra Wireless, Enfora (News - Alert) and Telit, as well as 197 CDMA devices from 42 vendors, including Sierra Wireless, BlueTree, Calamp and Novatel.
