An embodiment of the invention provides a system including an interface for receiving a device identifier, a user identifier, and a request for a resource from a mobile device. A database connected to the interface includes attributes of mobile devices and user profiles. The user profiles include user identifiers and lists, wherein each of the lists include at least one mobile device used by each user to access resources. The database is queried with the device identifier to identify attributes of the mobile device. A profile of a user is generated or updated based on the user identifier and the identified attributes of the mobile device. A processor connected to the database sends a recommendation to the mobile device based on the profile of the user, the attributes of the mobile device, and the resource requested. The recommendation includes a recommended mobile device or a recommended combination of mobile devices.
