Endurance and Google Expand Relationship to
Help Small Businesses Succeed Online
Endurance International Group (NASDAQ:EIGI), a leading provider
of cloud-based platform solutions to help small and medium-sized
businesses succeed online, today announced it has begun to offer
Google Apps for Work to its small business subscribers. This new
offering extends the existing relationship between Endurance and
Google (NASDAQ: GOOG), and reflects the companies’ joint effort to
get small businesses online and help them grow.
The addition of Google Apps for Work to Endurance’s services
allows small business subscribers on the Bluehost, Domain.com,
iPage, and HostGator platforms to access powerful professional
tools, including Gmail connected to their domain, cloud-based
storage with Drive, Calendar for meeting scheduling, and Hangouts
for video conferencing. These tools are integrated into the
customer control panel, giving subscribers a single location to
manage their entire web presence.
The two companies have a history of collaboration through
multiple programs, including the Get Your Business Online programs
in the U.S. and India, the Google AdWords Reseller programs in the
U.S. and India, and most recently via joint programs in Africa and
Southeast Asia.
This is the third agreement between Endurance and Google
announced this year. Other partnerships the companies have
announced include:
- The extension of the Get Your Business
Online program in the United States, through which Google has
helped bring hundreds of thousands of American businesses online
with free domains, web services, and support.
- Programs to provide small businesses in
emerging markets, including in Africa and Southeast Asia with the
Google My Business product, which helps connect businesses with
customers through listings on Search, Maps, and Google+. Once
listed, Endurance offers a variety of solutions to help these
businesses promote and grow their web presence, including a
website, eCommerce, SEO, and Google AdWords offerings.
“We are pleased to have created such a strong partnership with
Google over the past few years, with the ultimate goal of helping
to bring more small businesses online across the globe,” said Hari
Ravichandran, CEO of Endurance. “There are natural synergies
between our offerings, and with the addition of Google Apps for
Work to our platform, we have further strengthened and enhanced our
suite of services for small businesses.”
Google Apps for Work is now available to Endurance subscribers,
including Bluehost, Domain.com, iPage, and HostGator
subscribers.
Endurance is not only offering Google Apps for Work to its
customers but also recently decided to adopt it as a corporate
standard for itself. The company rolled out the suite of
applications internally to its U.S. offices and plans to implement
it at its international divisions in the coming months. More
