Chandler-based appsFreedom™, a leading provider of enterprise mobility, was named one of the best mobile products of the year in the 2013 Mobile Star Awards™ program hosted annually by the mobile technology news and directory site MobileVillage.com. In addition, Vaidy Iyer, appsFreedom’s founder and CEO, was identified in the 2013 Mobile Star Awards™ as a visionary leader in enterprise mobility.

The Mobile Star Awards honor both industry-leading mobile products and cutting-edge new solutions in nearly 50 categories covering software, mobile devices, and visionary leaders, as chosen by readers of MobileVillage’s bi-weekly newsletter Go Mobile™.

Since 2001, the Mobile Star Awards program has showcased the best products in dozens of categories covering consumer mobile apps, devices, enterprise mobile solutions, and technology visionaries. Winners are chosen by the nearly 11,000 readers of “Go Mobile™”, which is MobileVillage’s bi-weekly newsletter that delivers informative headline summaries and links to the top mobile stories on major mobile tech sites including: CIO, CNET, TechCrunch, Computerworld, The Verge, Engadget, and many others. All categories and winners are listed on MobileVillage.com at http://www.mobilevillage.com/mobilestarawards.

“The Mobile Star Awards is the only competition where today’s most exciting new mobile products and companies can compete against established competitors on a more level playing field,” says Mobile Star Awards director Gary Thayer. “A major part of this is because votes are cast by real users who really love the products – these are the mobile early adopters, mobile IT professionals, and tech journalists who dominate our readership. And after 13 years, the mobile industry recognizes Mobile Star Awards winners and nominees as the star innovators to watch and follow.”

“2013 was truly a break-out year for appsFreedom and receiving the Mobile Star Awards was just icing on the cake for our company. We were thrilled to wrap up with the year with the additional recognition that we are successfully building a world-class enterprise mobility company,” stated Vaidy Iyer, appsFreedom founder and CEO.
