DesertedRoad Partners with Axceler to Provide SharePoint Governance Solutions

DesertedRoad secures partnership with Axceler, a leader in SharePoint administration and governance.

DesertedRoad's entire focus is based around one area: relationships. Ben Adams, Director of Infrastructure, said it best when he stated, "At DesertedRoad, we don't just focus on the technology, we focus on the people. Our goal is to work with you in solving not just your immediate need, but developing an over-all strategy on how you can improve your business processes." With the innate ability for software development and core infrastructure, DesertedRoad strives to reach these goals.

The key to a great partnership is the people. When DesertedRoad kicked off in 2006, it was destined for many great relationships. Ben Adams has held true to his word of creating key partnerships for the company. This year alone, DesertedRoad has partnered with three companies, including Axceler, a leader in SharePoint administration and governance and Microsoft Gold Partner, based out of Woburn, MA with over 3,000 customers worldwide. "We chose Axceler for their seamless integration into SharePoint and continued commitment to training through the Axceler Academy."

With DesertedRoad's heavy focus on management consulting, governance plays a key role in successful SharePoint migrations, deployments and upgrades. It's so easy to allow that simple proof-of-concept to turn into a mess of documents with users having no idea how to find the information that they need quickly. With ControlPoint for SharePoint from Axceler, users are able to quickly view analytics, check user access and gain insight from detailed reporting. ControlPoint also helps businesses become HIPAA and SOX compliant with controls and auditing which allow business stakeholders to quickly and efficiently manage their data.

DesertedRoad has a very thorough vetting process before choosing to partner with vendors. Working closely with Axceler Account Manager, Anthony Jones, and Director of Strategic Alliances & Partnerships, Gerald Rhee, our company was impressed with the professionalism and quick support that Axceler provided, as well as training for the DesertedRoad team.

"Our partnership with DesertedRoad will expand our reach in providing governance support to the 51% (fifty-one percent) of businesses that we found admit they don't have a strategy in place," said Gerald Rhee, Director of Strategic Alliances & Partnerships at Axceler. "We understand the importance of insight into collaborative environments and look forward to sharing our knowledge with DesertedRoad to help provide a better business experience to customers."
