editIn September 2009 DataMotion was placed in the visionary quadrant of the 2009 Gartner File Transfer Magic Quadrant.[8][9] In April 2010 the company announced a reseller partnership with EasyLink Services. EasyLink re-sold DataMotion SecureMail and other document delivery solutions.[10]
In March 2011 an agreement with Jamcracker Services Delivery Network was announced, offering DataMotion SecureMail through Jamcracker's delivery network.[11]
In April 2012 the company announced the second generation DataMotion Platform,[12] making it available to systems integrators and solutions providers as well as enterprise end users.[13] This platform-as-a-service (PaaS) provides a secure data delivery hub that can be leveraged for unified data delivery.
In October 2012 the company announced DataMotion Direct, a secure email service that enables healthcare industry organizations to integrate with the Direct Project. The Direct Project enables healthcare organizations and providers to comply with Meaningful Use Stage 2 data transfer requirements established by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).[14] DataMotion also began operations as a health information service provider (HISP) in October 2012.
All products are available as on-premises, SaaS (Software-as-a-service) or hybrid solutions.
