New York/London, December 10, 2007 – ClusterSeven today announced it has joined the Google Enterprise™ Professional program, which extends the power of Google across the enterprise and helps customers get more value out of their Google enterprise deployments.
ClusterSeven software monitors the activity and changes in business-critical spreadsheets with no impact on the user. Acting much like a closed circuit television set (CCTV), the Enterprise Management Software records spreadsheet activity over time, building the 'movie' version of the spreadsheet content looking out for anything unusual – good or bad. ClusterSeven’s Enterprise Spreadsheet Management Software is used by some of the largest financial institutions in the world and now Google customers will gain access to the very same proven spreadsheet management platform.
“The Google Enterprise Professional program will help us enhance the value of Google Apps for users of on-line spreadsheets,” said Steve Semenzato, CEO of ClusterSeven. “The new on-line spreadsheets have significantly extended the spreadsheet medium. This breed, led by Google, enables major improvements in collaborative business processes such as budgeting and forecasting. Emailing a spreadsheet is no longer the only way to collaborate.”
Google spreadsheets are part of the Google Apps™ suite that brings simple, powerful communication and collaboration tools to organizations. With Google Apps, users can use tools such as Gmail™ web services, Google Calendar™ shared calendaring, and Google Docs & Spreadsheets™ on their own domain to work together more effectively. Best of all, it's all hosted by Google, so there's no hardware or software to download, install or maintain.
“When we talk to corporate accounts about on-line spreadsheet collaboration, we often get asked about visibility and control over those collaborations,” said Scott McMullan, Google Apps Partner Lead for Google Enterprise. “ClusterSeven builds on our standard controls to provide a solution that has solved the additional demands of some of the world’s premier financial institutions.”
The Google Enterprise Professional program includes developers, consultants and independent software vendors that provide value-added services for Google enterprise products.
