Microsoft Partner Solutions Showcase Programme
The Partner Solutions Showcase demonstrates how Partners can deliver value to customers quickly, through the Microsoft Business Productivity Online Suite. Partners can utilise their business expertise, technical expertise and technology innovations to deliver value quickly to their customers in different functional areas like human resources, sales, legal and operations. Partners can integrate SharePoint Online and Exchange Online with other SaaS applications, on-premises systems, Microsoft Office and Internet technologies to deliver custom solutions that address the specific business needs of their customers.
Microsoft is launching a Partner Solutions Showcase Programme to recognise partners who develop compelling solutions for their customers. Two Partners will be recognised annually for their innovative solutions. Partners can submit their solutions for review at the programme's Web site. Here are some of the innovative solutions that have been developed by partners.
