Zaltbommel, 9 May, 2012 – Qurius and Yammer agreed on a partnership agreement that makes Qurius a partner of Yammer in The Netherlands. Qurius will provide services for the delivery of enterprise social networks at companies using the Yammer platform. Qurius will also act as a partner of Yammer for developing add-ons and integrations with other platforms.
Yammer is an enterprise social network that can be used by employees to connect, collaborate, and coordinate. People get connected around common topics of interest and can easily share information, post questions and gather feedback. The platform helps to overcome distance, time zones and organizational silos in order to uncover relevant information and find answers to questions.
As a Yammer partner, Qurius helps companies to define the added value of Yammer, support the implementation and assist with the integration of the company’s existing systems with the Yammer platform. Yammers recognizes Qurius’ understanding and experience with the Microsoft portfolio and made Qurius responsible for the integration between Microsoft Dynamics CRM and Yammer which was released last month.
Arthur van Adrichem, team lead of the Qurius Collaboration practice: “Yammer is an excellent platform for collaboration and driving engagement of employees in the company. It is easy and fun to work with. It looks familiar and uses the same principles that people already know from social networks they are using with their friends and family. It is wonderful to see that Yammer invests in the integration with products that Qurius has in its portfolio. The current integration with Microsoft SharePoint and also Microsoft Dynamics CRM gives our customers the ability to connect their enterprise applications with a single social layer that drives productivity and efficiency across the entire company.”
Qurius Chief Brand Officer Geerd Schlangen: “The partnership with Yammer is very important for us. It gives a clear signal to our customers in the (higher) midmarket. Qurius is entering the space of social media with solutions that integrate fully with the total stack of Microsoft technology platforms. Innovation is one of our key values. Together with Yammer we are able to take our customers to the next level.”
