Subject: [All-India] Migration to Google Apps - Status Update
|
All,
GlobalLogic is moving to The Cloud! It’s
official. In the weeks and months ahead, globally we will transition to
GoogleApps.
Why transition
to GoogleApps?
- GlobalLogic helps its client partners tap into
new technologies. It’s critical therefore that our company be a leader
in technology adoption. GoogleApps is a very strong technology.
- GoogleApps will enable each of us to be much
more agile.
- Moving from MS server to a more flexible
GoogleApps platform will yield significant cost benefits.
What does this
mean for you?
- Flexibility
-- Access
documents from any computer/device, anywhere, anytime.
- Agility
-- No more
attaching documents to emails, waiting for revisions and tracking
versions. With GoogleApps, you’ll be able to share documents in
real time with colleagues and client partners AND still be able to keep track
of versions.
- Freedom
-- No more
tedious data back up processes. No more waiting days for your data to
be restored if your computer is down.
What will this
mean for clients?
- Connect – clients can connect more
easily with GlobalLogic.
- Collaborate – client partners can get
access to documents and interact with GlobalLogic in real time vs.
communicating over endless emails and versions.
- Innovate! - clients see
GlobalLogic as a more agile and innovative company

Become a
Google Guide:
Nominate yourself to become a Google
Guide. What’s a Google Guide? To ensure as smooth a
transition as possible, we’re enlisting the support of Google Guides.
Google Guides are select employees who are willing to help their colleagues
answer questions relating to the GoogleApps migration. All you need is
to be enthusiastic about learning new technology and be willing to share some
of your time in assisting your colleagues in moving to GoogleApps.
Learn more by visiting https://portal.globallogic.com/confluence/x/3ABoC
or email GoogleApps-CoreTeam@globallogic.com

Your support
is critical in making this a success:
This is a complex migration. We ask
your patience in working through any issues in the short term. We
believe you’ll benefit strongly from the migration.
- Check your Junk Box frequently -- In the
interim, please be on the lookout for any emails which may be routed to your
Junk Box. This will likely occur until every Globyte is moved to Google
Apps. You will, however, continue to receive Junk email summaries
as before and will get an option to unjunk your email yourself.
Thanks for your support in making this effort
successful.
With Regards,
