Charm City Cakes hires VMT for Google Apps Deployment

Baltimore’s famous Charm City Cakes hired local web development and consulting firm, Vision Multimedia Technologies, LLC (VMT) to deploy Enterprise Google Apps, which includes Gmail for Business, to help address issues they were having with managing and accessing their corporate email. VMT, one of the largest Google Apps Resellers in the area, configured and deployed shared calendars, email and workflow processes. Using many advanced Gmail tools, the company is better able to coordinate its intense daily email volume, ordering, production and delivery processes.VMT also migrated and archived historical information from the legacy system used by Charm City Cakes. In addition to the deployment, VMT provided user training to the staff.

"The switch to Google Apps has been great. We are particularly glad to be running Gmail as our email solution, it has solved a lot of problems for us in terms of managing and accessing our email, and the anti-spam is excellent. VMT did a great job getting us setup and trained and made the switch over very easy," said Mary Alice Fallon Yeskey, Manager of Charm City Cakes.

 “Our efforts to deploy Google Apps for Charm City Cakes was a success largely because most of the staff was already very familiar with Gmail for personal use, and so they were very willing and eager to embrace the technology and apply it in their business,” said Brian Razzaque, President of VMT.

VMT has completed numerous Google Apps implementations for clients in a variety of industries. In addition to Charm City Cakes, VMT most recently completed a 220-person Google Apps deployment for the real estate services firm The Strata Group, which includes the realty firm of Yerman, Witman, Gaines, and Conklin.
