Several years ago, Microsoft introduced Unified Support, a transformative model that redefined how comprehensive support is delivered across all Microsoft products and cloud services. Now, this next chapter, Unified for Partners, brings that same level of excellence to CSP partners serving SME & C customers at scale, powered by the Microsoft AI Cloud Partner Program and this new Support Services Designation.
Looking Ahead
This is just the beginning. As one of Microsoft’s inaugural designated partners, we’re proud to help shape the future of support, driving innovation, building customer success, and delivering trusted services together with Microsoft.
