Fujitsu, Cybozu collaborate to offer groupware as SaaS

ntttttttttttt

Fujitsu and Cybozu Inc have reached an agreement to collaborate on providing Cybozu Garoon, Cybozu’s enterprise groupware product, under the Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model.

n

As a result of this agreement with Cybozu, Japan’s number-one groupware company, Garoon is now available via Fujitsu’s public cloud as an SaaS service to be formally known as “FUJITSU Business Application Cybozu Garoon SaaS” (Cybozu Garoon SaaS).

n

By offering the popular groupware package as SaaS, Fujitsu is seeking to further expand the use of its public cloud service. Furthermore, Fujitsu will help its customers tie their sales management and other existing systems into Cybozu Garoon SaaS. This work will be conducted to deliver an optimized system environment by leveraging experience Fujitsu has accumulated in constructing and operating system installations of the packaged edition of Garoon at more than 300 companies.

n

To expand Cybozu’s services to worldwide markets, Fujitsu said it will offer Garoon over its global public cloud service, available in six countries, enabling the delivery of a uniform, reliable service to global companies seeking to expand their presence in Asia and around the world.

n

To mark the launch of Cybozu Garoon SaaS, Fujitsu is running a campaign to discount 99% of initial setup fees, available until the end of December 2013.
