Berkshire UK, 3rd November: Google for Work Premier Partner, Ancoris, has announced a new customer package following the pledge from Google (https://goo.gl/9QF0nv) that they will cover the Google Apps licence fees of new customers until their existing enterprise agreements expire.
The announcement of European availability was made today at Web Summit Dublin, by Amit Singh, President of Google for Work. This means organisations can move to the cloud without the high cost of paying off existing agreements.
Ancoris is looking to further support customers’ journey to the cloud, by offering a complimentary package. Customers that engage Ancoris as their Google for Work partner for implementation services in conjunction with Google’s Enterprise Agreement Campaign offering will also receive the following benefits at no extra cost:
One day business transformation workshop
One day of collaboration training via webinar, covering Google Docs, Drive and Hangouts
One year comprehensive support, including an admin training webinar and end user training through the Cloud Skills Academy, Ancoris e-learning resource that helps address initial change management and promotes employee self-help.
Two Chromebox for Meetings for low-cost high-quality room-based video conferencing.
The package is available to eligible mid-market organisations with a minimum of 250 and maximum of 3000 seats.
David McLeman, CEO of Ancoris commented: “We think that once you see Google Apps for Work in action, you’ll never want to go back. We want to help more businesses experience that now. We’re aware that for some Microsoft customers, one of the biggest barriers to embrace cloud collaboration can be exiting from expensive and complex enterprise license agreements. At Ancoris, we think this limits the ability for businesses to transform the way they work and innovate. We believe our new package, combined with Google’s new pledge will give more businesses the opportunity to function without hefty maintenance contracts, use the modern tools they prefer, and spend their money on transforming their business, rather than maintaining the status quo.”
