OtterBox on High Alert: Protecting Mobile Security Solutions from Damage in the Field

Fort Collins, COLO. – As a leading provider of interactive home and community solutions for builders, community managers, and security companies, dwellingLIVE needs rugged protection for the delicate handheld devices that operate their software in the field. When the company recently released its new PatrolLIVE program, which utilizes the Motorola Symbol MC35 device, they turned to OtterBox for the ultimate protection.

Designed for security officers to increase productivity in the field, PatrolLIVE needed to be able to withstand extreme environments. Enter the OtterBox Defender Series™ case.

“Our new PatrolLIVE product deployment would have been a costly proposition if we had not come across the OtterBox for Symbol MC35 case,” said Jeff Moran, president of dwellingLIVE. “Without OtterBox to protect our equipment from daily ware and tare, the costs incurred from repair and replacement would have made the project unrealistic and we would have had to walk away from nearly a half million dollars in development costs.”

The sleek OtterBox case design provides an interactive safeguard against drops, scratches, dirt and other hazards in the field. An innovative three-layer design offers maximum protection while adding minimal bulk to the portable MC35 device.

“With OtterBox we are able to protect a powerful, yet fragile mobile device that has all the necessary features all in one unit, rather than spending thousands more for a rugged device with similar capabilities,” Moran said. “Our clients cannot absorb the high costs of rugged handheld products but OtterBox offers an affordable and dependable alternative.”

So far, the company has received a phenomenal response to its PatrolLIVE solution including the OtterBox case which protects it. Customers especially like the holster-style belt clip which provides convenient carrying for security officers.

“We chose OtterBox over other options because of its superior quality, rugged design and because it continues to prove itself in the field” Moran said.
