New Relic, Inc., the SaaS-based application management provider, announced today the launch of the company’s Mobile Partner Program, which coincides with the general availability of New Relic for Mobile Apps released today. The new partnership program includes a “Who’s Who” of mobile app platform providers such as Adobe® PhoneGap™ Build, Appcelerator, Parse and Stackmob. New Relic is also extending its partnerships with existing platform and infrastructure providers such as CloudBees, Joyent, Rackspace® Hosting and Windows Azure Mobile Services to include free mobile app monitoring for customers on those platforms. The New Relic Mobile Partner Program assures that New Relic for Mobile Apps is broadly available on any platform preferred by app developers.

With its unprecedented visibility into the real-time health of native mobile applications, New Relic for Mobile Apps gives developers the key to faster and more effective development efforts and higher rates of end-user satisfaction. Partners can also gain deep insight into how their customers’ mobile apps are interacting with their platform. As a result, these companies expect to achieve key customer service goals such as fewer support calls, a vastly more effective customer support interaction, faster Time to Resolution (TTR), and consistently satisfied customers.
