ALSO hjælper partnere med Azure migrationer

ALSO understøtter Cloud Marketplace's Microsoft CSP portefølje med Assisted Migration service. Med denne hjælp får ALSO's partnere konfigurationsvalidering, deling af best practice og procesviden. Assisted Migration er tilgængelig for alle partnere i femten ALSO lande.

"Ved at være den største Microsoft indirekte CSP partner i Europa, har vi fået en masse erfaring med migrationsprojekter. En af de vigtigste faktorer af succesfulde migrationer, er at få tilstrækkelig støtte, når du har brug for det. Hvert projekt er unikt, så at give vores partnere ekstra hjælp og viden fra certificerede teknikere, gør en stor forskel, når det gælder vellykkede projekters migration og den bedste kundeoplevelse," sagde Gustavo Möller-Hergt, administrerende direktør for ALSO Holding AG.

Microsoft leverer mange fordele og nye forretningsmuligheder for Microsoft-partnere på globalt plan. At drive forretningen på Azure-platformen er en stigende trend, og migrationer fra eksisterende on-premise-miljøer til den skyen bliver mere populære. Formålet med Assisted Migration service er at gøre det lettere at sælge Azure og bevirke, at migration sker hurtigere og mere problemfrit.
