Options Technology, a provider of cloud-enabled managed services to the global capital markets, has secured its fifth Microsoft Gold Partner Status in the “Communication” competency.

The accolade of Gold Partner Status is awarded to only the top 1 per cent of Microsoft partners and is a recognised mark of the highest standards of technology and business performance worldwide.

Microsoft’s Communication competency proves Options’ technical capabilities in implementing unified communications strategies for customers by designing, planning, deploying, and maintaining Microsoft Business solutions across cloud and hybrid environments.

This achievement is the latest addition to Options’ global cloud-agnostic platform. It follows the company’s receipt of Microsoft Gold Partner awards in Small and Midmarket Cloud Solutions, Cloud Productivity, Cloud Platform, and Project and Portfolio Management competencies.
