\n<\/p>\n

Hearsay Systems<\/a> is announcing that it has acquired technology and intellectual property from Mast Mobile.<\/p>\n

The Mast service allowed businesses to manage work and personal numbers on a single mobile phone,<\/a>\u00a0and to connect those phones to their customer database. It was backed by Samsung<\/a>, FirstMark Capital and others<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Hearsay, meanwhile, offers marketing and communication tools for the financial services industry. It says that Mast\u2019s technology will be used to improve Hearsay Messages, its product for financial advisors to text message their clients without violating regulations.<\/p>\n

\u201cFinancial services firms are faced with balancing their regulatory responsibilities with today\u2019s bring-your-own-device reality,\u201d said Hearsay\u2019s vice president of product Gaurav Agarwal in the acquisition announcement. \u201cAdvisors want to use their own mobile phones for business, but still keep their personal and business activities separate.\u00a0Mast Mobile has had a fantastic record of developing successful enterprise communication solutions in the mobile space.\u201d<\/p>\n

The financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. It sounds like the acquisition is focused on Mast\u2019s product rather than its team, though Hearsay said Mast CEO\u00a0David Messenger will remain involved as an advisor.<\/p>\n
