The Analyst's Read
The bottom line on Nektony
Bottom line
Nektony is a niche utility provider whose mobile presence is a legacy extension of a robust Mac-centric software suite. While they solve a specific pain point for Visio users, the lack of recent mobile activity suggests they are currently a maintenance-only player in the mobile space.
