NEVER BE LATE
Proxpro Prompt knows where you need to be,
when you need to be there, it displays the fastest route to avoid
real-time congestion and tells you the best time to leave.
Proxpro’s product Prompt won the People’s Choice Award for the enterprise category at
the SiRFecosystem’s Location 2.0 Summit (September 2008). Prompt was chosen by the popular
vote of top location-based services leaders because of its “superior use of the power of
location to enhance the daily lives of individuals, enterprises and communities, as well as
its level of innovation, impact on the market, features and benefits to end users”.

“The problem with in-car navigation devices is that, by the time you
get to your car, you’re probably already late for your next meeting,”
said Eric Elkins, PR and new media consultant at WideFoc.us.
“Proxpro knows where I need to be, warns me in advance if
there’s a problem along my route, and tells me when I need to hit the road
in order to arrive on time”
“Then there are also some useful applications of LBS for business users…
Proxpro Prompt, software available to users of some BlackBerry devices in the
US and Canada, which is integrated with the user's calendar and with traffic and
public transport monitoring services, tells them when they should leave their current
location and alerts them if a traffic or weather problem suggests they should
leave early.” Mobile Europe Oct 16, 2008
“Super-cool companies (Proxpro) are combining phone features
with personalization and pattern recognition to introduce services that
are more intelligent and more resourceful than anything we’ve seen before…they
are helping us make better judgment about future events and experiences –
if not predict them… .” Peggy Anne Salz, Mobile Messaging 2.0, July 10,2008
"One of the greatest inventions for the road warrior has to be the GPS
but one of the items that I like that has been coming out lately is real time
traffic information. Google started to show it in select US states and recently
Rogers subscribers here in Canada could access a site to get current traffic
information. Now comes ProxPro that uses your GPS position and traffic
information to tell you which is the best way to go and alerts you to when
is the best time to leave from your current location." BlackberryEdge, 5/27/08
"The features look really cool. I like the fact that it tells you the best
time to take your trip to get there on schedule." Ronen Halevy at BerryReview
"Proxpro displays the fastest route to avoid congestion and tells you
exactly when to leave. If there is an accident while you are traveling on
your intended route, Proxpro will warn you that the travel duration will
increase and show an alternative route." Hayden at Pinstack.com, 5/26/08
“[Proxpro] Determines where your next calendared appointment is,
determines the fastest route based on congestion and your current location, ballparks when you should leave
and gives an estimated travel time. It sounds like a pretty handy app.” BlackBerryCool 05/23/08
“ combining a user's calendar with location and travel information to help
ensure that business travelers are never late.” Efrain Viscarolasaga,
Mass High Tech, 5/23/08
"GPS Navigation integration with Calendar appointments is exactly what
we need in our smartphones. Proxpro, knows when you need to be where
and tells you when you should start your journey or warns you of possible
delays based on live traffic information."
Adam Z. Lein, pocketNow.com 4/12/08
“I believe that GPS navigation will be integrated to the calendar, providing
“when to leave” information so I make my appointment on time.
I completely expect the category to standardize around such services in
the next few years.”
