The award recognises the Surface partner that has brought the best of Microsoft together by pairing Surface PC and/or Hub with Microsoft modern solutions including Microsoft 365, Autopilot, Device as a Service (DaaS) or other modern deployment techniques in FY22.
“This has been an exceptional year for Data#3 in terms of accolades. What a fantastic achievement to take home the worldwide Surface + Partner of the Year award, just one month after being named the worldwide Microsoft Device Distributor/Reseller Partner of the Year,” said Scott Gosling, National Practice Manager for Microsoft at Data#3. “This award is testament to the work we do every day to combine Surface devices with security and Modern Management solutions for our customers. We look forward to continuing our work in helping customers to deliver their digital future.”
With over 500 modern work projects delivered in FY22, Data#3 possesses extensive proven expertise. The company holds numerous Microsoft Advanced Specialisations in Modern Work including Adoption and Change Management, Calling for Microsoft Teams, Meetings and Meeting Rooms and Teamwork Deployment. These Advanced Specialisations are extremely difficult to obtain and retain. Combined with the company’s Microsoft Gold Competency Status, Data#3 is one of a handful of partners with this level of Microsoft accreditation.
