Small businesses can have confidence when they work with IT support firms who have earned the status of being Microsoft Partners because of these advantages associated with the Partners certification:
- A Partner's engineering staff has the technical depth and professional background to have attained Microsoft Competencies
- A Partner's business is reliable and experienced working with Microsoft technologies
- A Partner has access to more Microsoft training and support resources than non-certified companies
An example of a benefit that Microsoft offers to Certified Partners is Microsoft's Technical Service Coordination (TSC), which is reserved exclusively for Microsoft Certified Partners. TSC acts as a single point of contact for Certified Partners to access Microsoft Support Services. It provides direct access to technical support specialists who help manage the technical support experience from problem to resolution, at any point in the business life cycle. TSC ensures that Certified Partners have the most up-to-date information by proactively contacting them regarding security alerts, patches, and hot fixes, ensuring that complex projects run more smoothly.
