For Immediate Release:

D&H CANADA BECOMES AN AUTHORIZED MICROSOFT CSP PROVIDER, ADDING MS SOLUTIONS TO ITS CLOUD MARKETPLACE

- New MS Cloud Offerings Allow D&H Canada Partners to Outfit the Evolving Workplace, Assisting Business Customers on their Digital Transformation Journeys -

BRAMPTON, ONT - July 25, 2022 – D&H Canada, a major provider of technology solutions to the Canadian channel, announced that it is now an authorized Microsoft CSP (Cloud Solution Provider) distributor. The Microsoft CSP program delivers partner resources to drive faster adoption of cloud-based solutions among business end-customers, streamlining their operations and improving customer satisfaction. To support this program, D&H Canada has added Microsoft's powerful cloud-based solutions to its versatile Cloud Marketplace transactional platform.

D&H Canada's Cloud Marketplace allows partners to easily deploy and manage cloud-based services across a multitude of clientele on a self-service basis. It provides the tools and services necessary to simplify how partners sell foundational cloud solutions such as Microsoft 365, Dynamics 365, and Azure. In addition to solutions, the marketplace incorporates capabilities like billing, invoicing, cloud provisioning, and allowing partners to fold-in their own services all on the same invoicing system.

The ability to offer Microsoft's CSP program will enhance D&H Canada's already formidable support for partners as they accommodate new methods of technology delivery and consumption in the reimagined workplace. As an authorized Microsoft CSP provider, D&H Canada partners will receive access to licensing opportunities, rewards, enhanced management capabilities, improved pricing alignment and more, all based on a monthly subscription. Combined with D&H's Cloud Marketplace, the program will help solution providers rise to the challenges of the changing workplace, where cloud-based and hybrid infrastructures are often provided through new XaaS-based models.

"D&H Canada's Cloud Marketplace is an intuitive and streamlined platform that partners can leverage to become comprehensive cloud service providers," said D&H Canada General Manager Michelle Biase. "The addition of Microsoft empowers our partners to deliver services ranging from unified collaboration, to CRM, to endpoint security, all built on Microsoft's industry-leading cloud infrastructures, and all managed from a single interface. These services can be procured on a more affordable monthly subscription basis, allowing a wider range of businesses to accelerate the modernization of their systems. This translates to terrific ongoing revenue opportunities that will help our partners expand their cloud practices."

"This is an important moment for Microsoft Canada and the D&H relationship. We look forward to growing our cloud business together, offering value for our mutual customers across the country," said Andy Theophylactou, Director, Services Direct and Indirect Channels, Telco and Surface at Microsoft. "D&H Canada is a key partner for Microsoft in helping to drive its solid presence in Canada. Combined with their cloud expertise, this will be a key component of our partnership going forward."
