Overland Park, KS, March 8, 2010 — BillSoft, Inc., the market leader for transaction-based taxation, announced today that the company brought home the gold, as in Microsoft Gold Certified Partner with a special competency in ISV/Software Solutions.  

Achieving gold status means BillSoft has the highest level of expertise and command of Microsoft technologies for software development. A plaque signifying this elite status will grace the lobby of BillSoft’s headquarters.

As a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner, BillSoft will have gold-level access to Microsoft tools, resources, plus priority technical assistance—all through ISV/Software Solutions. This will be invaluable as BillSoft software engineers interface with Microsoft on a daily basis. Now these engineers will have the closest possible working relationship with Microsoft.

“It’s really a recognition of our development process,” said Brian Cronin, BillSoft Systems Engineer Director. “And with the gold status, we’ll have even more access to Microsoft products and people during the software development cycle.”

The goal, of course, is designing best-in-class products like EZTax and combining them with the service and support BillSoft is known for.

“It’s an honor to be named a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner,” said Vicki Klein, BillSoft President.  “It’s a testament to who we are, what we’ve accomplished and what we’re capable of.”
