According to Gartner, Inc., cloud services are expected to provide revenue growth that exceeds traditional services as enterprises adopt new delivery models and methods to harness the value of IT services.

"As reliance on salesforce.com and other cloud-based solutions grows, so does the need for consulting expertise," said Lou Fox, CTO, Bluewolf. "Bluewolf Beyond enables organizations of every size to achieve a continuous flow of value from Salesforce CRM by keeping their Salesforce instance ahead of market and business change."

Bluewolf Beyond is a simple, comprehensive solution for ongoing Salesforce maintenance and management of users, offering a single service level agreement (SLA) for on-demand access to a complete team of salesforce.com specialists with rich and diverse skill sets.

Bluewolf Beyond is designed to enable all companies to emerge as leaders in a landscape of shifting initiatives, changing market pressures, emerging technologies and user-driven demand.

"Companies are thinking more strategically about how they manage their cloud computing services after go-live," said Kendall Collins, chief marketing officer, salesforce.com.
