Microsoft Partner Program, and we look forward to using
it to enhance the offerings that we provide for customers.”
“Customers are looking for partner companies that can

capabilities. They need to trust in someone that can act
as an expert adviser for their long-term strategic technology
plans. Microsoft Gold Certified Partners, which have certified
expertise and direct training and support from Microsoft,
can build a positive customer experience with our technologies,”
said Allison Watson, vice president of the Worldwide Partner
Sales and Marketing Group at Microsoft Corp. “Today, Microsoft
recognizes Above All Software as a new Microsoft Gold
Certified Partner for demonstrating its expertise in providing
customer satisfaction with Microsoft products and technology.”
As one of the requirements for attaining Gold Certified
Status, Above All had to declare a Microsoft Competency.
Microsoft Competencies are designed to help differentiate
a 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 partners bring to the technology industry.
The Microsoft ISV/Software Solutions Competency recognizes
the skill and focus 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 meet customer needs,” said Sanjay
Parthasarathy, corporate vice president of the Platform
Strategy & Partner Group at Microsoft. “They allow
ISVs to keep and win customers with their deep knowledge
of solutions-based Microsoft platform technologies. Microsoft
has a long history of working closely with ISV partners
to help deliver compelling solutions and applications
to our mutual customers, 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.
