“CaféBiz is the perfect solution for businesses that are unable or unwilling to invest in traditional, high-cost solutions for collaboration and document routing capabilities,” said Nuage CEO, Chris Atkins. “With the subscription model, our new product not only meets demand for a lower price point, but is also a strong solution for enhancing document sharing processes.

Both companies will engage in joint marketing of their linked solutions.

Nuage CEO, Chris Atkins, expressed his enthusiasm for not only the alliance between the two companies, but for the added value the alliance promises. “Kenesto and Nuage independently bring great value and consumer-oriented benefits to the table, but with this new alliance, we have an outstanding opportunity to significantly change the face of social business and process collaboration and to create immense added value for our customers,” said Atkins. “Kenesto’s Process and Information Collaboration capabilities paired with Nuage’s Social Business Collaboration solutions will undeniably generate distinctive, value-added results for customers that are not readily available in today’s marketplace.
