Cloud For Good, A Memphis based startup, that works with mission driven organizations to create and implement strategic soultions based on cloud technology, with a strong focus on Salesforce, has teamed up with Apsona. The two companies have released a new product called “Over The Edge”.
Over The Edge helps non-profit and educational organizations who have been using Raiser’s Edge for CRM and business management solutions, to migrate to the more powerful and more robust SalesForce platform. While that looks like a task any decent sized IT department could easily handle, it wouldn’t be with the ease nor the speed that “Over The Edge” brings to the table.
Cloud For Good’s Founder Tal Frankfurt, told us in an in person interview Wednesday night that the Over The Edge products takes under 30 minutes and just 4 clicks to have a non-profit, or educational organization migrated to Sales Force. Â Frankfurt has found, and many others have agreed, that migration and actually executing the switch-over from something else to SalesForce is the most painful part. Once companies are running on SalesForce it’s smooth Sailing.
While most non-profits and educational organizations know the benefits of switching to SalesForce, theyv’e also heard war stories that kept them from switching. A big data loss for a non-profit could amount in hundreds of hours of paid computer labor to get back up and running, and unfortunately the fees for that kind of service are often not within their reach. That’s one of the driving reasons behind the creation of “Over the edge”.
Cloudforgood has helped a number of non profit organizations and educational organizations with their data and cloud storage needs. While their big focus is on SalesForce they’ve also helped implement CRM systems, teach and implement Google Docs and a variety of other things for non-profits.
