Entisys Solutions and Agile360 Achieve Microsoft Gold Cloud Competency

Entisys Solutions, Inc., which along with its Southern California division, Agile360, is the West Coast's #1 expert in the deployment of advanced IT infrastructure solutions for the data center, all forms of end-user computing including mobile devices, and the public and private cloud, today announced that it has attained Microsoft Gold Cloud Platform competency, demonstrating a “best-in-class” ability and commitment to meet Microsoft Corp. customers’ evolving needs in today’s dynamic business environment and distinguishing itself within the top one percent of Microsoft’s partner ecosystem.

“I am incredibly proud of our team and grateful for their hard work and dedication toward helping we achieve Microsoft Gold Cloud competency,” said Matt General, vice president and CTO, Entisys Solutions. “This designation not only showcases our team’s deep Microsoft expertise, but also helps to further strengthen our reputation both within the Microsoft ecosystem, and among our clients, as a trusted advisor in the deployment of Microsoft cloud solutions.”

To earn a Microsoft Gold Competency, partners must successfully complete exams (resulting in Microsoft Certified Professionals) to prove their level of technology expertise, and then designate these certified professionals uniquely to one Microsoft competency, ensuring a certain level of staffing capacity. They also must submit customer references that demonstrate successful projects (along with implementing a yearly customer satisfaction study), meet a revenue commitment (for most Gold Competencies), and pass technology and/or sales assessments.

Entisys Solutions and Agile360 are recognized throughout the industry for a strong leadership position in defining datacenter, desktop and cloud strategy and architecture requirements for their clients. Entisys Solutions and Agile360 currently hold several industry-leading distinctions including Citrix Platinum Partner, VMware Premier Partner, Microsoft Managed Gold Partner, NetApp Platinum and Virtualization Services Partner and HP Platinum Partner.

“By achieving a Gold Competency, partners have demonstrated the highest, most consistent capability and commitment to the latest Microsoft technology,” said Phil Sorgen, Corporate Vice President, Worldwide Partner Group at Microsoft Corp. “These partners have a deep expertise that puts them in the top 1 percent of our partner ecosystem, and their proficiency will help customers drive innovative solutions on the latest Microsoft technology.”

Attaining the Microsoft Cloud Competency demonstrates partner expertise in building, integrating and/or extending Windows-based applications and infrastructure solutions in the cloud using the Microsoft Azure cloud platform. With more than 57 percent of the Fortune 500 using Microsoft Azure, the Microsoft Cloud Platform Competency can help partners take advantage of the growing demand for infrastructure and software as a service solutions. Equipped with exclusive training, partners can help customers deploy solutions that increase customer productivity and profitability.
