WOBURN, MA and LA CANADA, CA - March 12, 2012 - Axceler®, the leader in Microsoft SharePoint administration, governance and migration, and SharePoint consulting firm SharePoint Pros, Inc. today announced a partnership to offer high-quality professional services and software solutions to support and optimize customers' SharePoint investments with a focus on governance.

"At the recommendation of consulting firm SharePoint Pros, we are using Axceler's ControlPoint solution and we're very pleased with the results so far," says Glen Profeta, Orange Coast College Director of Applications and Infrastructure. "With over 1,000 employees internally and 40,000+ additional users accessing SharePoint over the internet, Orange Coast College is leveraging SharePoint as its intranet and internet solution. During our recent upgrade from SharePoint 2007 to SharePoint 2010 ControlPoint proved to be an invaluable tool and that, along with SharePoint Pros' expertise, helped make the process much easier for everyone involved."

"SharePoint Pros prides itself on being a trusted advisor to our clients and a critical part of this relationship is working with best-of-breed vendors like Axceler," states Jim Ehrenberg, founder and Managing Partner at SharePoint Pros. "With our new partnership with Axceler, we can help clients - particularly those using SharePoint for the first time - establish solid SharePoint governance from day one by recommending and implementing Axceler's ControlPoint solution.
