Small Box - Great Future: sharoo Wins an International Award
ZURICH, July 21, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
"Sharing instead of ownership", this is the motto of peer-to-peer car sharers.
Constantly connected by Smartphone and characterised by their marked environmental
conscience, they have made innovative technology their own and it is thanks to this that
car sharing between private individuals has become child's play. Today there are more than
30 providers of P2P car sharing formulae in Europe. Together, there are some 1.4 million
registered users and the trend is growing. This was sufficient reason for Frost & Sullivan
[http://ww2.frost.com ], a well-known consultancy firm, to grant an Award in the "P2P
Carsharing Price/Performance Value" category to the top of the European class in this
sector.
The prize
150 Top Executives, all experts in the branch and 24 candidates on whom all spotlights
were trained to hear their views on the future of mobility in Europe. It is in fact an
area in which Frost & Sullivan discerns Best Practice Awards
[http://ww2.frost.com/event/calendar/best-practices-awards-banquet-london-3 ] every year
to companies active on an international scale and capable of detecting innovative trends
while making the most of promising and possibly revolutionary technology in various
industrial sectors before they become standard or a global reference. Every year this
prize is awarded in the categories of "Leadership, technological innovation, customer
service and strategic product development".
In an international comparison, sharoo's carsharing formula convinced the "P2P
Carsharing" platform experts and received 9 points out of a total of 10, a result that
placed sharoo at the top of the class for this European rating.
Small box - great futureÂ
In the sector of carsharing between private individuals, the Frost & Sullivan experts
found that the sharoo box provides a decisive advantage. In fact, personally handing over
the keys was one of the main stumbling blocks with P2P carsharing. Which meant that
sharoo's solution that allows cars to be opened and closed simply by using a Smartphone
was the answer to a prayer and sharing vehicles has become... as easy as pie. Installation
of the sharoo box is not limited to any specific make or model of vehicle, and can be
installed in any vehicle. Furthermore, sharoo won further points for being user friendly,
reliable, the quality of service and the security of its system.
Solid partnershipsÂ
Frost & Sullivan also took into account as key factors of sharoo's success the
strategic partnerships it has concluded with well-known co-investors such as Migros, La
Mobilière and Mobility. Their presence has played a crucial role in prospecting for new
clients on one hand, and in the capacity to meet specific client needs on the other.
Finally, the latest partnership with AMAG has enabled a further increase in the array of
cars offered on the sharoo platform.
