Reaching New Milestones with NewsGator as the Guide

For an increasing percentage of Fortune 2000 organizations around the world, NewsGator is the way social business gets done. As many of our customers implement social for the first time or upgrade their platform from a previous version of Microsoft SharePoint and Social Sites, NewsGator is there to be a guide – to make sure the process goes as smoothly as possible.

A few customers in the first quarter of 2012 reached impressive milestones and we would like to give them a shout out for a job well done! As many of you may know, becoming a “social” enterprise not only involves IT but it’s a fundamental cultural change within your organization.

Accenture – a global management consulting, technology services and outsourcing company with more than 246,000 people serving clients in more than 120 countries – recently migrated from SharePoint and Social Sites 2007 to 2010. With help from NewsGator, they were able to make this a successful transition across their entire global organization. Nice work Accenture!

The Nature Conservancy (TNC) – is the leading conservation organization who protects ecologically important lands and waters for nature and people in all 50 states and in more than 30 countries. The team at TNC successfully launched their internal CONNECT portal across the organization with immediate adoption of more than 1/3 of their staff. Congratulations TNC!

MTN Group – a multi-national telecommunications group offering voice and data communications products and services to individuals and businesses – recently launched their Intranet portal called MTN Connect running on SharePoint and Social Sites 2010. This launch marks the beginning of the transformation of MTN into one global community. Way to go MTN!

Stockland – one of Australia’s leading diversified property groups – just upgraded from SharePoint 2007 to 2010. In that process they implemented Social Sites 2010 as a catalyst to begin redefining their organizational purpose and establish better ways to communicate and collaborate internally. Great job Stockland!

Wipro – employs over 120,000 people across five continents to provide IT solutions and services globally to their clients. They recently launched their Catalyst portal aimed at improving employee productivity and satisfaction, capturing and sharing knowledge and best practices, breaking down silos between geographies and departments, and enabling mobility. Kudos Wipro!
