Marshal gets Gold tick from Microsoft

Gold Certified Partners represent those with the highest level of competence and expertise with Microsoft technologies and have the closest working relationship with Microsoft.

Oscar Marquez, Microsoft global alliance manager for Marshal, said the strengthening of ties between the two companies will open new doors of opportunity and drive Marshall's growth across the world.

“Microsoft has been our platform of choice for our content security solutions and corporate infrastructure since our founding, and we’ve long been one of Microsoft’s most proactive partners,” he said.

“Achieving Gold Certified Partner status is key for keeping our international growth momentum going. It provides us with unprecedented access to hundreds of thousands of Microsoft channel partners worldwide as well as additional resources and an even closer working relationship with Microsoft to continue to develop solutions optimised for our joint customers."

Marshal's new status will enable it to access to hundreds of thousands of Microsoft channel partners worldwide. The company has also certified its email security solution, MailMarshal SMTP, on Windows Server 2000 data centre and is pursuing certification for its entire product line.
