Google acquires training service Synergyse, a virtual coach for apps users

Google has acquired Synergyse for use as a training tool for Google Apps. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

According to Google, companies that use Synergyse have “on average 35 percent higher adoption across Apps products, meaning those organizations are more likely to be productive, collaborative and embrace digital transformation.”

Up to now, Synergyse charged $10 per user per year for business organizations and government customers with up to 5,000 users. The company also charged $10 per user per year for employees at schools and other educational institutions, but offered the software free for students.

Peter Scocimara, senior director of Google Apps operations, said the company’s decision to purchase Synergyse stemmed from its popularity among Google Apps users.

“Given the enthusiasm that exists for Synergyse already, we want to extend this service to all of our customers,” Scocimara said in the blog post announcing the acquisition. “That is why we’re happy to announce Synergyse will be joining Google, and we intend to make the product available as an integral part of the Google Apps offering later this year.”

Google’s Apps Learning Center currently offers numerous tools and tips to help consumers who are new to the company’s portfolio of productivity applications to quickly learn how to use the products and take advantage of the functions embedded in them. The learning center offers everything from quick-start guides for Google email, calendars, video meetings and other apps to product FAQs, cheat sheets and tips on how to migrate from another vendor’s platform to Google Apps.
