March 7th, 2022, Dubai UAE: Following on from SEIDOR Group rebranding news, SEIDOR MENA is pleased to announce that in recognition of its efforts, it has obtained Microsoft Tier 1 Partner status, resulting in a world-class service that sets customers up for success. Companies that partner with Tier 1 CSPs benefit from expert support and quality solutions that help them make the most of their cloud network.
Microsoft has a policy of strictly assessing all its partners, and several criteria must be fulfilled before any certification is awarded. Microsoft maintains its reputation as the leader in IT solutions and software by expecting the highest standard of performance from their partners. Thus, Microsoft CSP Tier 1 Partners possess the highest level of competence and expertise with Microsoft technologies as well as to have best-in-class capabilities for deploying Microsoft cloud solutions.
“Partnering closely with Microsoft will help our customers to enhance productivity and innovation in the cloud. As a Microsoft Tier 1 partner, we are recognised as a recommended reseller for Microsoft cloud products and services. It demonstrates that we’ve invested heavily into our infrastructure to deliver the quality of service that Microsoft demands”, stated Ignacio Ruiz de Eguilaz, SEIDOR MENA Managing Director. “Cloud Solution Provider Tier 1 status allows us to work more closely with Microsoft and ultimately offer our customers a better service”.
What is a Microsoft Tier 1 Cloud Solutions Provider status?
It is not an easy process to get certified, and membership is not unlimited. In order to achieve a Tier 1 partnership, it takes a considerable amount of time and effort. Our team has gone through all required steps to be able to offer certain key services that help us become a Tier 1 Partner. To achieve this status, SEIDOR must prove to offer more than simply re-selling Microsoft products, but also offer fully managed professional services around these products.
“Organisations across the region and beyond utilise the power of the Cloud to enhance productivity, transforming the way people work and innovate”, said Julien Bertin, Azure Business Group Lead, Microsoft MEA. “Today’s cloud capabilities empower individuals to fully utilise solutions built for the modern-day hybrid world across industries. And it is with pleasure that we can build upon this Tier 1 partnership with SEIDOR, as they deliver the best for customers in the region while maintaining the highest standards of quality . We are excited to see Seidor support organisations reaching their full potential in their digital transformation journey and making a lasting impact with Microsoft Cloud innovations”.
This status enables Seidor to grow its business volume and consolidate its positioning by strengthening its presence as a cloud solutions provider in the Middle East, a region in which SEIDOR has strong penetration. In the same way, Seidor is positioned as a leading IT consulting company in MENA, with a team of 125 professionals and activities in Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Egypt, Lebanon, and Israel.
In addition, this status allows Seidor to increase direct support for SAP customers who are planning to migrate to Microsoft Cloud. It also complements the company’s range of business services and solutions within SAP and other technologies to continue elevating businesses to make decisions through different solutions.
