Pak Johan Yahya, the IT Manager from PT. Sure Indonesia gave testimonials in the event.

 “Before using Google Apps, each staff used their own mail resulted correspondence became more difficult and insecure. Moreover, when there was staff resigned, the data then was gone with them. It was very disturbing. At the time we wanted to have our own domain in mailing, but the cost for investment to the server was too high, so we delayed it. Until finally we decide to use this Google Apps. This is really helpful. Now, we have our own company name in mail domain so our data is more secure. Besides, we are also able to back up mails via Google fault. Sharing data and organizing events are also much easier. Overall, using Google Apps bring to us a lot of advantages, not only in the IT department, but also to the whole company,”
