Bluewolf (www.bluewolf.com), an on demand software consulting firm, has joined the Google (News - Alert) Enterprise Professional program for greater efficiency and effective implementation and deployment of Google Apps. Bluewolf has wide experience with on-demand applications, gained through implementing Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions for over 1,000 Salesforce.com (News - Alert) customers.

 

"As organizations look to integrate SaaS into the way they do business, Google Apps enables them to take advantage of on-demand applications," said Eric Berridge, co-founder and Principal, Bluewolf, in a statement. "For those organizations looking to transition to Google Apps or use it to complement their existing messaging and collaboration infrastructure, we can ensure that it is implemented effectively through our unique approach to change management."

 

The Bluewolf Enterprise BluePrint offers businesses planning, configuration, integration, migration and change management tools for Google Apps. Bluewolf is targeting mid-size and enterprise organizations and looks to utilize its expertise in SaaS (News - Alert), built through its work as a Salesforce.com implementation partner since 1999, to implement and deploy Google Apps.

"We empower business users through our Total User Adoption training, focused on change management -- not on technology -- to facilitate the use of Google Apps throughout an organization," said Glen Stoffel, VP Business Development, Bluewolf. "And, because we can guarantee customer success based on our years of experience with SaaS implementations, we feel we are an ideal partner for Google Enterprise."

"We selected Bluewolf as a Google Enterprise Professional partner because of its extensive experience with implementing on-demand applications," said Scott McMullan, Google Apps Partner Lead, Google Enterprise. "We're looking forward to Bluewolf extending and integrating Google Apps by providing deployment and development expertise."

Google Apps provides simple, powerful communication and collaboration tools to organizations. Users can use tools like Gmail webmail services, Google Calendar shared calendaring, and Google Docs & Spreadsheets on their own domain to work together more effectively, with the help of Google Apps. Since it is all hosted by Google, there's no hardware or software to download, install or maintain.

The Google Enterprise Professional program includes developers, consultants and independent software vendors, who offer value-added services for Google enterprise products.
