Founder and SVP of Gimmal, Mike Alsup, said, “Gimmal’s mission has always been to ensure that the technologies enterprises employ to manage information, wherever it exists across the enterprise, were easy to use and improved their businesses. We are proud to provide the only records solution for Microsoft SharePoint certified against the stringent records management standards of the Department of Defense 5015.2 standard. Gimmal is also unique in our ability to connect SAP, SharePoint and Office 365 to streamline business processes. We look forward to continuing to provide cutting-edge innovation to our global customer base.”
