Transform today and deliver a differentiated mobile experience

Frontier Airlines places a significant emphasis on delivering flawless mobile experiences in recognition that the mobile experience IS the customer experience, especially with their mobile customer base. They quickly came to realize that testing on a broad array of real devices was imperative due to the incredible device fragmentation in the market. However, this posed its own set of challenges. Although they were testing on over 50 devices, they were unable to effectively and efficiently utilize them across distributed teams and distributed locations. Frontier evaluated a number of solutions and selected Kobiton for their unique ability to provide remote access to on-premises devices.  The Kobiton platform is being used to manage 50 devices in their office(s), and to allow access to devices for multiple teams in multiple locations, including work-from-home and automation. Their devices are connected in a single location that can be accessed from anywhere globally and also 24/7 for mobile automation runs.
