Bluewave & GSX Partnership Announcement (30th June 2009)

Bluewave Technology Group & GSX Solutions are delighted to announce a strategic partnership that will see Bluewave offer, in conjunction with GSX, a range of value add technical services. The initiative has been born out of the increasing demands from GSX customers for a technical services component to compliment GSX's award winning multi-platform (Domino, Sametime, BES, etc) monitoring and reporting solutions and better leverage their collaboration environments to their full potential.

The Bluewave Technology Group and GSX Solutions have a long association with each other and Bluewave personnel have worked with GSX as a design partner in terms of feature suggestions and product enhancements for a number of years.

The partnership will enable GSX to offer a wide range of value add related services to their client base as well as see Bluewave utilize the GSX product suite to deliver these services to their customers.
