The Frontier Partner designation is only awarded by Microsoft to a select group of partners with advanced competencies in artificial intelligence, cloud solutions and security. SOFTIP has thus become one of the technology leaders in the Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) region.

We are very happy! We have managed to acquire another important Microsoft specialization - this time in the area of Modern Work - Modernize Endpoints. This latest specialization is a confirmation of our competence in the area of endpoint deployment, management and security.

SOFTIP has become a finalist in the global competition Microsoft Partner of the Year 2024. The Slovak IT company achieved this extraordinary success in the category Modern Workplace for Frontline Workers, where it was ranked in the top three of the world's best partners of the software giant Microsoft. This happened in its very first participation in this competition, in which more than 4,700 nominated projects fought it out.

SOFTIP enjoys another success. It has achieved the important Microsoft Cloud Security specialization and has thus become a holder of all four advanced Microsoft Security specializations. And it is the first and so far the only company in the CEE region.

Copilot for Microsoft 365 is Microsoft's latest AI-powered tool that transforms the way you work with Microsoft 365 apps and services - like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Teams, and OneNote.

SOFTIP has acquired another important specialization from the technology giant Microsoft, this time in the area of infrastructure and database migration to the cloud Microsoft Azure environment. The new Infra and Database Migration specialization is an independent confirmation of SOFTIP's high expertise and extensive experience in moving customer on-premise solutions to cloud (including Linux VMs and open-source databases).

You may have noticed that we have recently stopped using the Microsoft Gold Partner title. Instead, SOFTIP is a Microsoft Solutions Partner. And in up to five areas. Our new designation fully replaces and even exceeds our previous accreditation. What is the reason for this change? And what does it actually mean for our customers?

Microsoft has set stricter conditions for companies to enter the partner programme. It has thus simplified the selection of a suitable IT solutions supplier for its customers, but also significantly increased the pressure on the quality of (not only) Slovak partners. SOFTIP is already among the suppliers that have successfully met the new criteria.

With its fifth Microsoft Partner of the Year title, SOFTIP confirmed its stable position in the Microsoft partner ecosystem, which appreciated the fact that it has adopted the cloud-first vision and adapted its business philosophy to it. It was one of the first to become a user of all the major Microsoft cloud technologies and further communicates their benefits to its customers.
