INCLINE VILLAGE, NEV., November 4, 2024 - Ridgeline, the industry cloud platform for investment management, announced today that it has launched the Ridgeline Mobile experience. 

Ridgeline Mobile, available via web browser on any mobile phone, is just the latest innovation from the enterprise solution that is leading the industry in modern technology, including native cloud and AI capabilities. 

Ridgeline is designed to help investment management firms spend more time on what matters. Core functions like portfolio management, trade order management, and client relationship management are brought together with unified, real-time data on a single platform and an intuitive interface that’s now available from a mobile phone for the first time. 

According to Ridgeline’s SVP of Product and Platform Susan Koo, “We’re always looking for ways to deliver value to customers and introduce more efficiency and growth opportunities in their day. Ridgeline Mobile will unshackle entire teams from being bound to their desks and let them seamlessly operate whenever and wherever they are — using the same device they do for everything else in their life.”

Ridgeline’s customers transitioning from legacy solutions are replacing as many as nine disparate software packages and a multitude of integrations. The entire firm's ability to access the platform at any time from their mobile devices is yet another example of how Ridgeline supercharges operations. 

“I’m now waking up in a world where I look at our trades real-time on my phone with Ridgeline and that’s how I check to see where we’re at with a trade. This is software that will unlock our people to do greater things.”- Ridgeline customer Cole Smead, CEO and Portfolio Manager, Smead Capital Management

Ridgeline’s product team listened closely to customers to ensure that the initial set of mobile functionality aligned with the actions they wanted to prioritize on the go, including: 

  • Understanding their business in real time through firm-wide dashboards and performance calculations 
  • Responding to client requests by accessing key details like portfolio performance and recent activities and trades 
  • Recording meeting notes verbally with the voice-enabled AI Assistant
  • Tending to workflow alerts such as compliance and assigning tasks to colleagues 

Ridgeline will continue to invest in building out the mobile experience as part of its commitment to delivering the most modern technology in the industry. As more mobile functionality becomes available, Ridgeline users will experience the same frictionless cloud updates that they enjoy on the desktop experience through weekly releases. 

Ridgeline CEO Dave Blair is enthusiastic about what mobile will unlock for users, saying, “Ridgeline Mobile adds a powerful new dimension to our ability to serve as a centralized communications and operational hub for an entire firm in real-time.”
