Uri Taiber, founder and CEO of InsFocus Systems, Ltd., leading developer of business intelligence software for the insurance industry, today announced that Microsoft has upgraded the company to Gold Certified Partner status.
Awarded to only best-of-the-best solutions providers, Microsoft's Gold Certified Partner program recognizes those companies which have met the software giant's most stringent training and competency requirements and demonstrated the kind of expertise, strategic thinking, and skill sets that position them as first-choice technology resources in the world marketplace.
InsFocus Systems' Gold Certified Partner status replaces its previous Certified Partner designation, a much sought-after affiliation in its own right. According to Hanan Taiber, CTO and R&D Manager of InsFocus Systems, one of the requirements to earn Microsoft Gold Certified Partner status was that InsFocus subject its flagship product to rigorous testing by Microsoft partners.
"From Day One, we've focused on making InsFocus BI a rock-solid and
feature-rich business intelligence platform for analyzing and
reporting insurance business data," Hanan says. "Microsoft's partner
testing confirms that we've succeeded in delivering a superior
insurance BI solution."
In addition to meeting software testing requirements, Gold Certified
Partners must also demonstrate proficiency in at least one Microsoft
Competency. InsFocus Systems, as a developer and marketer of
packaged software solutions, merited the Independent Software Vendor
(ISV)/Software Solutions competency.
"The ISV/Software Solutions competency is validated, in part, by a required number of project-specific client references," Hanan says. "With our latest reference from Malta's Middlesea Insurance, we've passed that threshold and proven ourselves and our products to be of consistently high value to the insurance industry."
That value, according to Hanan, comes not only from first class support and innovative technologies aimed squarely at the insurance industry's unique needs, but from an insurance BI system that combines ease-of-use, simple maintenance, and elegant design with raw data warehousing and analysis power. An intuitive system that allows non-technical insurance professionals to focus on the insurance business, instead of software issues, InsFocus BI is a comprehensive business intelligence solution that facilitates better, more profitable decisions no matter what the insurance business domain - whether marketing, underwriting, claims, reinsurance, actuarial, or accounting. As InsFocus Systems' Uri Taiber puts it, "InsFocus BI is all about eliminating the barriers between insurance professionals and the information they need to make the insurance business a better business for everyone concerned."
