Previously, we maintained competencies in Advanced Infrastructure Systems and Network Infrastructure Systems. This year, Microsoft added two additional competencies, in both Hosting Solutions and Security Solutions.

Achieving Microsoft Gold Certified Partner status is a result of hard work and continued focus. We are required to maintain a number of Microsoft Certified Professionals on staff, satisfactorily complete an annual customer satisfaction performance review, provide customer references, and meet an annual volume licensing commitment.

In return, AppliedI.net receives advanced technical resources and training, consultation services, early access to the next generation of Microsoft software, and access to a dedicated team of experts within the Microsoft Hosting Solution group. In fact, our team communicates with Microsoft Hosting and Server experts on a daily basis in an effort to remain at the forefront of technology and innovation.
