Google Apps Admins Win with Cumulus Global / BetterCloud Partnership

BOSTON, Aug. 28, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- One of the challenges of cloud computing solutions is effectively managing the services.  While most cloud services let you manage the service, they do not always provide tools that help manage how the service is used.  As a BetterCloud Preferred Partner, Cumulus Global offers organizations using Google Apps for Business, Education, and Government an admin-friendly cloud management tool.  FlashPanel's simplifies many management tasks, enhances administrators' ability to secure and control the Google Apps domain, automates common management tasks, and enables delegation of responsibilities.
