TimeSpring Software Attains Gold Certified Partner Status In Microsoft Partner Program
TimeSpring Software Corp. Further Distinguishes Itself by Earning a Microsoft Competency In ISV/Software Solutions
Newport Beach, CA, (PRWEB) July 5, 2005 –- TimeSpring Software Corporation
today announced it has attained Gold Certified status in the Microsoft Partner
Program with a competency in ISV/Software Solutions, recognizing TimeSpring’s
expertise and total impact in the technology marketplace. As a Gold Certified
partner, TimeSpring has demonstrated expertise with Microsoft technologies and
proven ability to meet customers’ needs. Microsoft Gold Certified Partners
receive a rich set of benefits, including access, training and support, giving
them a competitive advantage in the marketplace.
TimeSpring shipped the
first file-based continuous data protection software for the Microsoft Windows
platform in 2004. TimeSpring's software, TimeData, automatically captures all
changes to application data in real-time, making it possible to recover from
loss, corruption or security breaches within minutes. Additionally, TimeData
makes it easy to analyze, report and test using real data at any time, without
impacting operations. TimeData is easier to implement, easier to use and more
affordable than other systems.
“We are extremely pleased to have attained
Gold Certified status in the Microsoft Partner Program. This allows us to
clearly promote our expertise and relationship with Microsoft to our customers,”
said Janae Lee, CEO of TimeSpring Software Corp. “The benefits provided through
our Gold Certified status will allow us to continue to enhance the offerings
that we provide for customers.”
“Customers are looking for partner
companies that can bridge the gap between their business demands and technology
capabilities. They need to trust in someone that can act as an expert adviser
for their long-term strategic technology plans. Microsoft Gold Certified
Partners, which have certified expertise and direct training and support from
Microsoft, can build a positive customer experience with our technologies,” said
Allison Watson, vice president of the Worldwide Partner Sales and Marketing
Group at Microsoft Corp. “Today, Microsoft recognizes TimeSpring as a new
Microsoft Gold Certified Partner for demonstrating its expertise in providing
customer satisfaction with Microsoft products and technology.”
As one of
the requirements for attaining Gold Certified Status, TimeSpring had to declare
a Microsoft Competency. Microsoft Competencies are designed to help
differentiate a partner’s capabilities with specific Microsoft technologies to
customers looking for a particular type of solution. Each competency has a
unique set of requirements and benefits, formulated to accurately represent the
specific skills and services that partners bring to the technology
industry.
The Microsoft ISV/Software Solutions Competency recognizes the
skill and focus partners bring to a particular solution set. Microsoft Gold
Certified Partners that have obtained this competency have a successful record
of developing and marketing packed software based on Microsoft
technologies.
“Solutions Competencies are an important way for Microsoft
to better enable ISVs to meet customer needs,” said Sanjay Parthasarathy,
corporate vice president of the Platform Strategy & Partner Group at
Microsoft. “They allow ISVs to keep and win customers with their deep knowledge
of solutions-based Microsoft platform technologies. Microsoft has a long history
of working closely with ISV partners to help deliver compelling solutions and
applications to our mutual customers, and the Solutions Competencies are an
important step in continuing to enhance vital relationships with ISVs
worldwide.”
The Microsoft Partner Program was launched in December 2003
and represents Microsoft’s ongoing commitment to the success of partners
worldwide. The program offers a single, integrated partnering framework that
recognizes partner expertise, rewards the total impact that partners have in the
technology marketplace, and delivers more value to help partners’ businesses be
successful.
