Keynote to acquire DeviceAnywhere

Bags mobile QA firm for $60m.

Keynote describes itself as a specialist in Internet and mobile cloud monitoring, while DeviceAnywhere services around 1,200 organisations with its testing and quality assurance platform.

It says the deal will extend Keynote's enterprise mobile product portfolio into the adjacent mobile testing and QA market. 

Umang Gupta, CEO of Keynote, said, "Combining DeviceAnywhere's leading testing and quality assurance cloud-based solutions with our strong mobile monitoring business firmly establishes Keynote as a leader in the mobile testing and monitoring markets. 

"The resulting increased product breadth and scale meaningfully enhance our competitive position.  In addition, the acquisition will expand our addressable market into the immediately adjacent enterprise mobile testing and quality assurance space, which we project could enable us to grow this into a $100 million business."
