“We are extremely pleased to have attained Gold Certified status in the Microsoft Partner Program. This allows us to clearly promote our expertise and relationship with Microsoft to our customers,” said Sanjiv Menezes, President. “The benefits provided through our Gold Certified status will allow us to continue to enhance the offerings that we provide for customers.”
“Customers are looking for partner companies that can bridge the gap between their business demands and technology capabilities. They need to trust in someone that can act as an adviser for their long-term strategic technology plans. Microsoft Gold Certified Partners, have direct training and support from Microsoft, can build a positive customer experience with our technologies,”
As one of the requirements for attaining Gold Certified Status, Sliq Media Technologies had to declare a Microsoft Competency. Microsoft Competencies are designed to help differentiate a technology partner’s capabilities with specific Microsoft technologies to customers looking for a particular type of solution. Each competency has a unique set of requirements and benefits, formulated to accurately represent the specific skills and services that technology partners bring to the technology industry.
The Microsoft ISV Software Solutions Competency recognizes the skill and focus technology partners bring to a particular solution set. Microsoft Gold Certified Partners that have obtained this competency have a successful record of developing and marketing packed software based on Microsoft technologies.
“Solutions Competencies are an important way for Microsoft to better enable ISVs to help meet customer needs,” said Sanjay Parthasarathy, corporate vice president of the Platform Strategy & Partner Group at Microsoft. “They allow ISVs to help keep and win customers with their deep knowledge of solutions-based Microsoft-based platform technologies. Microsoft has a long history of working closely with ISV partners to help deliver compelling solutions and applications and the Solutions Competencies are an important step in continuing to enhance vital relationships with ISVs worldwide.”
The Microsoft Partner Program was launched in December 2003 and represents Microsoft’s ongoing commitment to the success of partners worldwide. The program offers a single, integrated partnering framework that recognizes partner expertise, rewards the total impact that partners have in the technology marketplace, and delivers more value to help partners’ businesses be successful.
