Wrike Offers Project Management Software-as-a-Service with the Application Packaging Standard (APS)
Palo Alto, California, February 12, 2009 - Wrike Inc., has released its leading Web-based project management software in the APS format. Now hosting service providers can easily deploy Wrike on their infrastructure, enabling their customers to use one of the best project management solutions in the Software-as-a-Service model.
Wrike is a Web-based application that lets people manage projects easily via email and the Web anytime, anywhere. Wrike is a valuable addition to a service provider's portfolio - it is easy to use and helps solve customers' email overload problems. The sophisticated email integration makes Wrike a natural choice for the customers already using hosted email.
"Wrike APS package enables hosting providers to easily add the product to the range of their business-oriented offerings, up-sell their email customers, increase revenue per user and become more competitive by getting a true web 2.0 application in their portfolio," said Andrew Filev, the CEO of Wrike.
APS is a technology standard for provisioning and managing software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications. APS was initially developed by Parallels to simplify the integration of Web applications developed by independent software vendors into hosting environments. By adopting APS, hosting service providers enable their customers to take advantage of hundreds of popular consumer and business applications, already available in APS format.
"Wrike is well-known for its innovative approach to project management software. Wrike's seamless integration with email makes it a perfect fit for hosting service providers that already offer email and collaboration solutions. It's great to see that one of the most promising SaaS players in the project management space has chosen APS as its integration standard," said Soeren von Varchmin, Vice President of SaaS and Service Providers International at Parallels.
