Or, citing Microsoft itself: “Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP) certification validates IT professional and developer technical expertise through rigorous, industry-proven, and industry-recognized exams. MCP exams cover a wide range of Microsoft products, technologies, and solutions.”
What is our technological knowledge & experience more precisely?
So, what Microsoft technologies do we ‘excel’ (pun intended) at? The past couple of years, we've gained extensive experience building solutions for clients that combine the best traits of the following Microsoft technologies:
- For storage: Azure SQL Server, Azure SQL data warehouse, Azure data lake storage

How will current & future clients benefit?
This Gold partnership certifies that Crunch Analytics’ team masters said technologies and has proven it can work with clients on a plethora of solutions that use the Microsoft technology stack. Such, ranging from data warehouses & lakes, over dashboarding solutions providing data insights, to advanced predictive algorithms.
It enables us to guide organizations in retail, consumer goods & horticulture on their journey as they become ever more data-driven organizations that embrace analytics & AI.
