Concept Searching Finds Map Gold

February 18, 2011

The Microsoft Partner Program consists of three levels, the highest represented by the Gold label.  Given the diverse array of companies that partner with Microsoft, it has added Competencies to their plan.  These must be earned and showcase a level of ability and specialization within the structure of the course.  Attaining this grade of certification has long been an arduous process, and it appears the requirements have been elevated. These revisions include employing Microsoft certified individuals, exams for the staff and customer references.

Of course, the benefits have been sweetened too, one of which is the integrity and distinction the logo seems to carry, something numerous businesses find attractive.  Additional perks: software packages, bundled technical support and training resources.  The list continues.

Concept Searching, a U.K. based metadata generation and classification software  company founded in 2002, recently announced their attainment of the gold level.  The firm’s freshly gilded conceptClassifier for SharePoint is “the only statistical based classification and taxonomy solution to use concept extraction and conceptual metadata generation to achieve the optimal approach to manage unstructured content”.  The company was asked to join the Microsoft Managed ISV Program in 2009, an offer reserved for reportedly 1% of the partners worldwide.  The press release goes on to state their technology is being implemented in the search and management fields to solve a broad set of problems.
