Vertical Solutions, Inc. Reaches the First Milestone Toward Achieving the Certified for Microsoft Dynamics Accreditation

CINCINNATI, OH--(Marketwired - Jun 10, 2014) - Vertical Solutions, Inc. (VSI) announced today that its post-sales field service management solution, VServiceManagement™, has passed the Software Solution Test for Microsoft Dynamics AX, which is a major requirement for Certified for Microsoft Dynamics® status.

Certified for Microsoft Dynamics is Microsoft Corp.'s highest standard for partner-developed software. This certification represents a significant step in elevating the standard for partner-developed software solutions for industry-specific business applications. Solutions with a successful software test have demonstrated development quality and compatibility with the Microsoft Dynamics products. VeriTest, a service of Lionbridge, performed independent and rigorous testing on the solution's integration with Microsoft Dynamics. Vertical Solutions, Inc. has also earned the Microsoft Certified Partner designation with the ISV Competency.

"Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R3 is built to deliver amazing experiences throughout an organization in a way that enables them to engage, connect, and interact with their customers and partners like never before," says Christian Pedersen, General Manager, Microsoft Dynamics AX. "It is great to see our partners such as VSI, build their Microsoft Dynamics AX practices and get certified with solutions that help businesses run agile operations that exceed customer needs and enable business growth."

"As Industrial Equipment and other manufacturing companies look to add additional revenue streams to make up for slower sales, field service has become increasingly important in this sector. Large field sales organizations require a solution that is robust and offers customers integrated mobility options. Vertical Solutions' Field Service offering is an option our Microsoft Dynamics customers can consider as it gives them a rich set of features, integration with Microsoft Dynamics, and mobile capability," says Gilbert Garcia, Director US Dynamics Manufacturing Industries.

VSI's VServiceManagement™ helps companies manage complex post-sales and field service environments efficiently, effectively, and profitably. The integration with Microsoft Dynamics AX enables companies to benefit from the native business logic and workflows of each system, yet share all service information with financial implications -- including entitlements, incurred costs, inventory, and invoicing -- in real time.
