Chetu Maintains Microsoft Gold and Silver Partnership for 2015

Plantation, FL, May 07, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Chetu, Inc., a global provider of custom software solutions, announces it will remain a Microsoft Partner during 2015, using its Microsoft competencies to demonstrate the company’s continuing commitment to providing high-quality software development using Microsoft platforms to meet Microsoft Corp. customers’ evolving needs in today’s dynamic business environment. Each year, Chetu reviews existing partnerships to ensure the partnership continues to bring success to the businesses involved.

To earn a Microsoft competency, partners must successfully complete exams (resulting in Microsoft Certified Professionals) to prove their level of technology expertise and, for gold competencies, designate these certified professionals uniquely to one Microsoft competency, ensuring a certain level of staffing capacity. Partners must also submit customer references that demonstrate successful projects and pass technology and/or sales assessments. For gold competencies, partners must also implement a yearly customer satisfaction study and, for many competencies, meet a revenue commitment.

“Maintaining a partnership with a technology superstar like Microsoft is an important facet to ensuring the continued success of our business and that of our customers who use Microsoft technologies to drive their software solutions,” said Atal Bansal, President and CEO of Chetu. “Chetu has many Microsoft certified developers who are fully capable of delivering customized solutions using Microsoft technologies.”

“By achieving a portfolio of competencies, partners demonstrate deep expertise and consistent capability on the latest Microsoft technology,” said Phil Sorgen, corporate vice president, Worldwide Partner Group at Microsoft Corp. “These partners show true commitment to meeting customer technology needs today and into the future.”

All 28 Microsoft technology competencies differentiate a partner’s specific technology capabilities, helping customers find qualified solution providers with expertise in discrete areas quickly and easily. Attaining the Devices and Deployment competency demonstrates partner expertise in designing, deploying and supporting desktop solutions based on the latest Windows 8 operating system and on other products like Windows 7, Microsoft Desktop Optimization Pack and Microsoft Office productivity software. Equipped with exclusive training, the latest software and support, partners help their customers focus on the business instead of the technology. As many customers migrate from earlier platforms like Windows XP, earning the Devices and Deployment competency helps partners capture this unprecedented market momentum and act as a trusted technology advisor to their customers, helping them through a successful migration. In addition, Windows 8 brings new capabilities and enables a wide range of scenarios (bring your own device, mobile workforce support, portable workspace) that require additional solution partner support to implement. The Microsoft Partner Network helps partners strengthen their capabilities to showcase leadership in the marketplace on the latest technology, to better serve customers and to easily connect with one of the most active, diverse networks in the world.

Earning the Application Development competency helps partners differentiate themselves as a trusted expert to their customers through development and deployment of commercial or custom applications built using core Microsoft technologies like Windows Server and Windows 8 operating systems, the Windows Azure platform, Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 development system, Microsoft BizTalk Server and emerging cloud-based and web business models. By gaining access to a comprehensive set of benefits through the Application Development competency, partners can acquire new customers and help them be more productive and profitable through deployment of business applications, advanced web portals or rich client user interfaces that run on premises or in the cloud.
