}}Cloud Sherpas was cloud computing advisory and technology services company.[2]

Cloud Sherpas was a salesforce.com partner,[3] the five-time Google Enterprise Partner of the Year for Google Apps [4] and ServiceNow partner.[5]

Founded in 2008 and headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, it was acquired by Accenture in 2015 for a reported $350-400 million.[6]

Growth

Cloud Sherpas was founded by Michael Cohn, Eran Gil and David Hoff in May 2008. Cloud Sherpas was a Google Enterprise partner and the leading reseller and implementation partner for Google Apps from 2010-2015. The firm raised a series of Angel investments in 2010 and 2011, led by Hallett Capital, and used the funds to acquire four competing Google Apps partners: Omnetic, Beloit, WaveAdept and Devnet.[7]

In March 2012, led by a $20 million investment by Columbia Capital, Cloud Sherpas merged with GlobalOne, a rising Salesforce.com partner. The combined entity went forward with the name Cloud Sherpas, which became a platform upon which additional cloud advisory boutiques and brokerage firms were later added. Global One was founded by John Orrock, Dennis Wall and Toan Huynh.

Other acquisitions include:

  • Stoneburn (2013): Provider of Google Apps resale and integration services in UK [8]
  • Navigis (January 2013): Provider of ServiceNow integration services. [9]

  • CloudTrigger (December 2012): A California-based consultancy focused on implementation and customization of cloud based CRM.[11]
  • Devnet (July 2011): A Google Apps reseller headquartered in Brisbane.[12]
  • Beloit Solutions Group: (July 2011): A Google Apps cloud services provider from Kansas.[13]
  • Omnetic (June 2011): A San Francisco-based Google Apps provider.[14]

Cloud Sherpas received a $40 million Series B Venture Capital financing from Greenspring Associates, Queensland Investment Corporation, Columbia Capital and Delta-V Capital in 2012.[15] According to CrunchBase, Cloud Sherpas has received $42.6 Million in debt and equity financing.
