Advanced, an Ontario-based AV integrator, recently joined the Microsoft Surface Hub partner reseller network.
“We are proud to join a very select group of firms that have been chosen to serve as a Microsoft partner for their revolutionary new system,” said Advanced president David Weatherhead in the company’s announcement. “We are excited to be able to offer this remarkable tool to our customers.”
Demonstrating a New Collaboration Experience
Advanced has a Surface Hub system as part of its upgraded state-of-the-art collaboration experience in its executive briefing center.
Connected to complementary AV components, the new collaboration experience “is designed to fully showcase the capabilities of the Microsoft Surface Hub in a real-world environment,” according to Advanced’s announcement.
“We are ready to demonstrate the Surface Hub’s complete range of capabilities in a broad range of application environments,” said Weatherhead in the press release. “We have also developed a menu of specialized managed services and technology consulting services for those enterprises that need support with their system implementations. This is…why Microsoft selected us to serve as a partner for this very important initiative.”
Microsoft has shipped Surface Hubs to more than 2,000 customers in 24 countries since its official launch last year. The launch followed several delays that made some wonder if Microsoft would ever produce it.
“We see increasing demand for the hub from many of our customers in all of the vertical markets we serve,” says Weatherhead. “Now, as an official Microsoft Surface Hub partner, we will be able to design and install customized hub solutions that meet specific individual requirements and we will be able to service these customers once the installation is complete.”
