Quickoffice Appoints Alan Masarek as CEO to Deliver Expanded Vision of Mobile Office



    Quickoffice, Inc., the leading global provider of mobile office
    productivity software and services, today announced the appointment of
    co-founder Alan Masarek to chief executive officer. Masarek will be
    responsible for leading Quickoffice's expanded vision of a mobile
    office.

    Quickoffice, already the world leader in providing mobile office
    document software for smartphones, is expanding its vision to deliver
    the next generation of mobile office solutions. Through the company's
    upcoming introduction of server-based solutions, on-the-go
    professionals will be able to access content from their mobile phones
    wherever that content exists, across a range of formats. Users will be
    able to remotely access data residing on their personal computer, as
    well as content that is embedded in mobile email attachments or stored
    locally on their mobile devices. With ubiquitous access to one's
    content and superior viewing and editing technology, Quickoffice users
    will be able to view, edit, print, fax, share and send content from
    their mobile devices.

    "I'm excited to move into this role during this important next
    stage of Quickoffice's growth as I believe the company is ideally
    positioned to capitalize on the rapidly expanding mobile market
    opportunities," said Alan Masarek. "By combining our technology,
    mobile client expertise and new partner technologies, we can uniquely
    provide users with anywhere, anytime content access from their mobile
    device."

    Masarek most recently served as president and chief financial
    officer for Quickoffice, the fourth technology-based company he has
    helmed. Masarek has scaled businesses from start-up through IPO,
    completing multiple rounds of VC financing and facilitating many
    company acquisitions.

    "Alan was an ideal choice, as he has years of management and
    mobile software experience both within Quickoffice and in the
    industry," said Janice Roberts, managing partner, Mayfield Fund. "As
    CEO, his vision and proven track record of providing guidance to
    senior level executives and his unwavering dedication will be
    invaluable to our management team."

    Masarek received his bachelor's degree in business administration
    from the University of Georgia and his MBA from Harvard Business
    School. Masarek replaces Barry Cottle, who remains on Quickoffice's
    board of directors.
