Our Microsoft Partnership

For over 20 years, Haefele Software — as part of iLink Digital — has been deeply aligned with Microsoft. Together, we hold all six Microsoft Solutions Partner designations, 11 Advanced Specialisations, and recognition as a Microsoft Fabric Featured Partner and early adopter.
Our teams have earned 500+ certifications across the stack, contributed directly to Microsoft product teams, and been involved in 100’s of events alongside Microsoft across US, LATAM, EMEA and India.
We are an Azure Expert MSP Partner, a Tier 1 CSP in the US (following in the UK), and a Managed Partner in the US, Mexico, and Middle East (following in the UK and South Africa).
Our Microsoft partnership reflects the depth of our capability and the trust Microsoft places in us to deliver securely, at scale, and in line with best practice.

Microsoft has evolved its partner framework. The original six Solutions Partner designations — Business Applications, Modern Work, Data & AI, Digital & App Innovation, Infrastructure, and Security — have now been consolidated into three commercial solution areas:
AI Business Solutions – bringing together Business Applications and Modern Work
Cloud & AI Platforms – covering Data & AI, Digital & App Innovation, and Infrastructure
Security – retained as a standalone designation


In practice, that gives us a holistic reach across the Microsoft ecosystem: Azure powers modern apps, Fabric unifies data, Copilot adds AI, Power Platform accelerates development, and Microsoft 365 connects people. We bring these together in line with Microsoft best practice to build new platforms, replace legacy, and integrate what you already have. Governance, identity, and cost control are built in from POC to production, with funding applied where eligible — so adoption is smoother and value arrives sooner.
We’d love to set up a call to understand your current challenges and share some of our learnings to help you on your journey. Reach out and we’ll be in touch within 24 hours.

When the stakes are high, certainty matters. Choosing a certified Microsoft Solutions Partner means your projects are guided by proven expertise and validated practice — not guesswork. With all Solution Designations, and various Advanced Specialisations, we have insider access to Microsoft roadmaps, funding programmes, and product teams. That gives you faster decisions, fewer false starts, and direct routes into Microsoft initiatives that accelerate value, giving you a partner who can de-risk big initiatives and get them moving smoothly.
Every solution we deliver is designed against Microsoft’s security and compliance standards from the very start. Governance, identity, and access controls are embedded so your teams stay protected without slowing down. Cost management is built in to keep usage transparent and predictable as adoption grows. Whether operating in a highly regulated sector or scaling rapidly across new markets, you get a platform that stands up to scrutiny, adapts to demand, and sustains momentum without compromising integrity.
As a notable Microsoft partner, we’re enabled to check, secure, and apply funding programmes on your behalf. That includes initiatives like Azure Innovate, Azure Migrate & Modernize, Copilot Accelerate, and ECIF (Enterprise Customer Investment Fund). These programmes can fund envisioning workshops, exploration sessions, and even deployment activities — lowering barriers to innovation and accelerating adoption. From proof of concept to production, Microsoft funding helps reduce risk, speed delivery, and ensure your investment translates into measurable outcomes.
Looking forward to connecting with you.
