In the past year Consuro achieved not one but two gold competencies in hosting and desktop through the Microsoft Partner Program. The gold partner status is the highest level of membership in the Microsoft Partner Program, but what did we have to do to get there?

1.          Eight Microsoft Certified IT Professionals had to pass the following exams:

•          Enterprise Messaging Administrator 2010

•          Database Developer 2008

•          Database Administrator 2008

•          Server and Directory

•          Enterprise Desktop Administrator on Windows 7

2.         Two sales and marketing employees were required to pass four online assessments about Microsoft products and also pass one Microsoft Licensing exam.

3.         Ten customer references were submitted during the application process.

4.         Consuro met a rigorous revenue commitment set by Microsoft.

We are telling you this because there are about 650,000 Microsoft partners out there, but the Gold Membership status is a rare find; only 5 percent of those partners have attained a competency, either silver or gold.

When you’re looking for someone to manage your IT, you want the best.  Our long-standing relationship with Microsoft ensures that we have the highest level of technical competency in the IT industry. At Consuro we strive to deliver the gold standard that brings peace of mind to our clients.
