Atlantic Global and OpSource Team to Bring Market-Leading Project Management Solution to the SMB Marketplace
(Market Wire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) SANTA CLARA, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 11/05/09 --
OpSource(TM), the leader in Cloud
operations, today announced that U.K.-based Atlantic Global PLC has
successfully deployed OpSource On-Demand(TM) to bring its market-leading project
portfolio management software to the SMB marketplace while enhancing
ease-of-use and security for existing enterprise clients, such as
GlaxoSmithKline. Atlantic Global OnDemand is a comprehensive software suite
designed to manage every aspect of a company's business, ranging from
simple timesheet and expense management all the way up to project portfolio
management. Atlantic Global chose OpSource On-Demand to provide the
infrastructure for this new
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution because of OpSource On-Demand's
unmatched reliability, security and technical support.
"Atlantic Global's mission is to help businesses to better understand their
resource capability and deployment so they can improve their operational
efficiency and effectiveness. Given the great performance advantages that
the SaaS model brings, moving our solution to the on-demand arena made
perfect sense," said Ian Needs, On Demand Product Manager. "Our choice of a
partner was equally straight-forward. Based on the strong recommendation of
Gartner, we met with OpSource and from there it was clear that OpSource was
our only choice. OpSource OnDemand offers unmatched security and
performance, plus its fully integrated solution means that we won't have to
worry about things like billing and analytics in the future."
OpSource's proven support track record also gave Atlantic Global the peace
of mind needed to move to the
on-demand world. "OpSource offers unmatched support," Needs said. "When
you are asking brand-name enterprises to migrate their critical project
management data outside of their firewalls, you need to know that there is
going to be someone there 24/7 ensuring quality. OpSource alone offered us
this level of reliable, time-tested performance."
Atlantic Global also chose OpSource because of the company's rapidly
growing footprint in Europe. "SaaS solutions are just being introduced in
the U.K. so we needed to find a partner that could help us navigate these
new waters. There is simply no other company that comes close to matching
OpSource's expertise and thought leadership," Needs said. "Working with
OpSource has given us a great advantage in a new marketplace."
"Atlantic Global's use of on-demand technology is the perfect example of
how SaaS implementations can both bring powerful solutions to new markets
and improve performance for the enterprise," said Treb Ryan, CEO, OpSource.
"We are pleased to partner with Atlantic Global to bring their innovative
business software to even more users."
