“Splunk MINT Enterprise and Splunk MINT Express, the first new products from our Bugsense acquisition, not only help our customers build more reliable, better performing mobile apps but also harness mobile app data for new, strategic IT and business insights,” said Guido Schroeder, senior vice president of products, Splunk. “In a mobile-first world, mobile app performance and quality are mission-critical. At the same time, data from mobile apps that provides insights into user behavior and usage characteristics becomes even more valuable when combined with data from other channels, including web and laptop applications, to provide full visibility of user interactions across multiple channels.”
