What should you expect from your Microsoft Partner

When you choose a Microsoft partner to implement, provide you Microsoft solutions and train your employees, you need them to support your business growth. As you evaluate your Microsoft partners, some of whom specialize in specific industries (manufacturing, distribution and retail; public sector and government; financial services; not-for-profit; and more) or functions, you’ll discover a wide range of sizes, competencies, capabilities, and personalities.

To get the most value from your investment and partner, ask these five questions to your Microsoft partner:

Are they reliable?

If you’re going to rely on a partner to deliver business intelligence, SharePoint, or CRM expertise, make sure they are one of the 24,000+ partners worldwide, and they have earned the specialized Gold Competency.  This distinction ensures you’ll get the best expertise for your needs.

Do they have industry experience?

If you’re looking to implement solutions with Microsoft, ensure your partner has deep experience in that industry. If they do offer experience and specialization in certain industries and functional areas, you will benefit from their expertise in delivering innovative products and services within your industry.

Do they have the latest tools and technologies?

Your customers expect anytime/anywhere access to sales, marketing, and service information. Investing in the latest tools and technologies will ensure your business stays ahead of the curve.

To determine whether they have what it takes to support your business needs, ask them about their Microsoft competencies for specific solutions areas, including:

  • Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) – Financials & Operations Management for Manufacturing & Wholesale Distribution
  • Microsoft AX for Retail 
  • Retail Channel Management & Connected Commerce
  • Customer Relationship Management (CRM) – Sales, Marketing & Service
  • Supply Chain Management (SCM) – Operations Planning & Execution
  • Power Platform 
  • SharePoint
  • ASP.NET

Are they committed to service excellence?

No matter how much time and money you invest in choosing the right partner for your business, if you wind up working with “the wrong person,” it could be a costly mistake. The best way to ensure you have chosen the best potential long-term partner is to ask them about their service excellence practices and how they measure customer satisfaction.

Asking these questions to your Microsoft partner will set you on the path to success. By investing in a single provider who will take you through the entire life cycle of customer engagement across sales, marketing and service – from up-front planning to deployment to ongoing operations – you’ll be able to achieve success faster.

As technology evolves and consumer expectations continue to increase, having a partner who can help you get the most out of Microsoft will give you an edge over your competition. Find the right partner today and experience business success faster.
