Case Study: 22squared modernizes collaboration and migrates from Lotus Notes to Google Apps with Cloud Sherpas

22squared migrates Lotus Notes And Custom Domino Application To Google Apps

22squared, a large independent advertising agency, faced significant collaboration challenges due to its unreliable IBM Lotus Notes and Domino systems. Server malfunctions and a lack of compatibility with employees' Macs and mobile devices were hindering productivity. A major impediment to change was a custom, business-critical Domino application they used to manage creative resources. To solve this, they partnered with Cloud Sherpas to migrate to Google Apps.

Cloud Sherpas executed a comprehensive migration of mail, contacts, and calendar data to Google Apps, providing extensive on-site and virtual training to ensure user adoption. Crucially, they addressed the custom application by developing a new solution on Google App Engine that integrated with the company's directory and systems. The migration was completed within two weeks, resulting in a smoother, more intuitive platform that eliminated previous technical issues and greatly improved employee satisfaction and collaboration.
