As businesses increasingly move to the cloud, companies working with Guidewire are experiencing both new opportunities and new challenges. Staying updated and connected is crucial, but it can also be complex and costly. That’s where GFT Nest comes in.

The Cloud Shift and What It Means for You

Guidewire’s transition to the cloud has changed the game for solution partners. Developing an accelerator and listing it on the Guidewire Marketplace is just the start. You must maintain access to a Non-Production Environment (NPE) and keep your accelerator code updated with every Guidewire release, about every 3 to 4 months.

For many solution partners, in-depth Guidewire expertise isn’t their focus. They’re looking for a straightforward way to connect their solutions to their clients’ Guidewire systems without constant technical hassles.

GFT Nest: Easing the Transition

GFT Nest is designed to help solution partners manage these challenges. We provide a hosting and maintenance service for accelerators, ensuring they stay up-to-date with the latest Guidewire versions. This means you don’t have to worry about constant updates or the need for a Guidewire NPE, which can save you significant fees.

Beyond just maintenance, GFT Nest also ensures that your environment is always available for demos. This reliability can be a key factor when showing potential clients what your solution can do. Additionally, we offer support during pre-sale and sales calls, helping to clarify the scope and requirements for successful integration.

Supporting Your Cloud Journey

To meet the needs of cloud-based accelerators, GFT Nest offers:

  • Installation and Hosting: We take care of the technical setup and maintenance in the GFT Guidewire Cloud.
  • Regular Updates: We keep your accelerator compatible with every Guidewire release.
  • Sales Support: We assist in discussions with clients, ensuring a smooth path from demo to implementation.
  • Bug Fixes: We handle any issues that arise, so your system runs smoothly.

By managing these tasks, GFT Nest allows you to focus on what you do best—developing and delivering innovative solutions to your clients.

Making the Cloud Work for You

The cloud offers incredible potential, but it also requires careful management. With GFT Nest, you have a partner who understands the complexities of Guidewire and the demands of the cloud. We ensure your solution stays current, functional, and ready for whatever comes next.
