msg Plaut has once again achieved Gold status in the Microsoft Partner Network. This is the highest partner status that can be achieved at Microsoft!

Microsoft thus distinguishes the competence of partners if they fulfill the necessary conditions.

In the evaluation, especially correspondingly large projects with customers who also use the technology used play a role. A certain market share is therefore required, which the msg group clearly has - and msg Plaut makes a significant contribution to this!

There must be a sufficient and specified number of employees with the appropriate qualifications in the respective divisions. Two out of three Azure Solutions Architect Experts of the msg group are employees of msg Plaut in Austria. The certificate must be renewed again and again. The last recertification did not take place until March 2022 and the exams were successfully passed: We sincerely congratulate on the excellent and comprehensive expertise around the Azure Cloud!

Since these parts also contribute to the account of the gold partner status, as well as above all to excellent customer service, msg Plaut can look forward to major successful projects in this area, e.g. at the company Kern AG.

Events are another important part of the golden strategy - organized by Microsoft together with partners - which are very popular with customers.

In a world of constant change, it is important to continue to develop - together with partners - in order to meet the flexible requirements of customers. msg Plaut has extensive knowledge in the Microsoft environment and customized solutions for different companies - the range of services includes, among others, the following activities:

• Application and infrastructure architecture
• Infrastructure consulting
• Cloud development and testing with DevOps
• Strategic cloud consulting
• Support and operation
• Projects in the area of information and knowledge management

 msg Plaut is proud to have received this award again and thus to be able to operate on the market as a recognized Microsoft partner!

As a cooperation partner, msg Plaut also supports the Microsoft initiative "Make Tomorrow Possible Today". This is intended to make an active contribution to creating a positive climate for digitalization and cloud use in Austria. Practical examples from Austrian companies are to be used to make the opportunities and benefits of cloud technologies tangible to business operators and those responsible in politics, science and administration.

"We are among the EU leaders in terms of public services, but the level of digitization in some aspects that are also important for the business location unfortunately still has a lot of room for improvement in an EU comparison: for example, only 20 percent of all companies in Austria use cloud computing services, compared with an EU average of 26 percent. So there is still a lot to do to create better framework conditions for technological change and greater awareness of its positive potential. That is why we are happy to participate in this initiative to strengthen Austria as a business location - after all, cooperation and networking are virtually emblematic of digitization and technological progress," says Dr. Georg Krause, Managing Director of msg Plaut Austria GmbH and Member of the Management Board of msg Plaut AG.
