Since 1996, Xplore has exclusively engineered and delivered the most complete line of purpose-built rugged tablet technologies in the industry.

According to VDC Research, out of all the mobile computer original equipment manufacturers (OEM) operating today, Xplore is the only OEM to have focused on rugged tablets -and only rugged tablets for 20 years.

“In a tech culture where new mobile computing devices enter the market on a frequent cadence, and a one-to-two year rip-and-replace model is prevalent, it’s rare to see such a strong company commitment to the development of future-proof mobility solutions on the scale Xplore has sustained for 20 years,” noted David Krebs, Executive VP, Enterprise Mobility & Connected Devices, VDC Research. “Xplore has done a commendable job of meeting the demands for mission critical computing solutions by their core customers. Balancing the persistent pressures for innovation in the highly competitive rugged tablet market and providing strong lifecycle support represent some of Xplore’s guiding principles.”

This unprecedented industry achievement comes on the heels of Xplore’s fifth consecutive year of market-exceeding growth.

“The fact that Xplore is still at the forefront of the turbulent rugged tablet market after 20 years of changing market conditions and a rapidly evolving tech landscape is a true testament to the strength of our company and the value that customers put on the unique mobile computing capabilities only Xplore rugged tablets can provide,” said Brett Gross, ANZ Director of Sales “Rugged tablets are all we do, and we do it best.”

Unlike other rugged tablet OEMs, Xplore has always worked side-by-side with customers and partners to architect complete mobility solutions, with the right feature sets, workflow capabilities, and accessories for each unique operating environment. Even the design, engineering, and testing of Xplore’s first rugged tablet, the GeneSys P133, was heavily reliant on customer involvement and acceptance.
