Colligo Selects Melbourne, Australia for Australasia Expansion
Vancouver, BC and Melbourne, Australia (PRWEB) September 11, 2015 -- Colligo, the leading provider of data synchronization solutions for Microsoft SharePoint/Office 365, today opens its Asia Pacific office in Melbourne, Australia. Frankie Pope, former systems and operations manager at Colligo, will take on the new responsibility of regional manager.
Colligo’s partner business grew by 47% in the region between 2013 and 2014. Further, the number of customers subscribing to the Colligo Engage App platform has also risen over the past nine months, with the APAC region now proving to be one of the strongest markets for Colligo.
“The impressive uptake of Colligo Engage in Australasia justifies an on-the-ground presence in the region,” comments Brian Craddock, Chief Revenue Officer at Colligo. “With Frankie’s track record and experience, we’re confident that she’ll have great success supporting our partners and customers.”
Most recently, Ms. Pope headed up the systems and operations team at Colligo, applying her 12 years’ experience in IT where she has concentrated on application design, development and implementation. Prior to that, she restructured the Colligo customer support group to meet the needs of a growing customer base. Previous to Colligo, Ms. Pope gained her SharePoint experience as one of the central administrators for SABMiller, supporting 70,000 users worldwide. She has also worked for the National Health Service (NHS) in the UK and for Skanska, a multinational construction company.
“I am excited to lead the expansion of Colligo in the APAC region,” comments Frankie Pope, Regional Manager, APAC for Colligo. “My first priority is to work with our Global Channel Manager to better meet the needs of our growing base of Australasia partners. With an eye to the next few months, when we’re launching more apps and enhancements to the Colligo Engage platform, I’ll be working hard to support our partners and customers locally.”
Ms. Pope will be at the upcoming Microsoft Ignite Australia Conference this November. To schedule a meeting, please contact her at: fpope(at)colligo.com.
