EOH joins the upper echelon of Microsoft partnerships by becoming an Enterprise Software Advisor, also known as a Large Account Reseller (LAR), one of only six companies in South Africa. “It is an incredible privilege for EOH and will act as an enabler to do more business as an end-to-end systems integrator in the Microsoft space,” says Simon Peter, the Director of EOH Microsoft Licensing.
EOH has made its intention of becoming the number one Microsoft partner in South Africa very clear. “In order to achieve and maintain this target, we need a focused services and licensing business. As a result, EOH embarked on the journey of building the required Gold competencies, which now stands at 14 Gold for the EOH group,” explains Peter.
The EOH Design, Build and Operate model will also be used in the licensing business. EOH will offer services in the form of software advisory, software asset management reviews and licensing models.
Microsoft is extremely excited about having EOH on-board as a LAR. "We are meticulous and specific when choosing and building strong partnerships with capable and expert organisations. We are confident that EOH will serve as a trusted technology advisor to our mutual customers,” says Kevin Derman, Partner Sales Lead at Microsoft South Africa. “We have brought EOH on-board to become a Large Account Reseller based on our faith in its abilities to offer Microsoft Solutions and licensing advice at a level that is compatible with the high standards that we expect from our Certified Partners in the market," concludes Derman.
