PAN Communications has been hired by Apps Associates, which provides strategic consulting and managed services for Oracle applications and databases. Apps Associates recently acquired SmartDog Services, a consulting services firm for companies running Oracle—a move intended to solidify its position as a forerunner in Oracle-to-the-Cloud migration services. PAN’s first campaign for Apps Associates, “Top Cloud Myths Debunked,” leveraged research results from a proprietary survey of 300 IT decision-makers managing Oracle applications. “With PAN’s strategic support, we’re leveraging unique marketing approaches to dispel concerns about Oracle cloud migration and reach IT professionals gearing up for the move to the cloud – SaaS, private or public,” said Apps Associates senior vice president of sales and marketing Paul Vian.
