Mformation Software Technologies is a software company.

Alcatel-Lucent on 17 September 2015 announced that it is acquiring Mformation for an undisclosed amount to strengthen its Customer Experience Management solution.[1]

Mformation was founded in 1999. Founder Dr. Rakesh Kushwaha currently serves as the company's CTO. Kevin A. Wood [2] is the current CEO. Mformation is a member of the Open Mobile Alliance (OMA), which works to support, extend and improve the standards for remote device management.

Mformation is headquartered in Woodbridge, New Jersey, with offices and subsidiaries around the globe including Bangalore, India.

Patent lawsuit

Mformation sued Research In Motion (RIM) in 2008, accusing it of infringement of two patents. In July 2012, jurors in federal court in San Francisco determined that RIM's software, which lets companies manage workers’ BlackBerry devices remotely, infringed Mformation’s patents. RIM was found liable for $147.2 million in damages[3] but judge overturned the ruling.[4]
