TIPSA demonstrates reliability and quality by building on the Microsoft cloud and commercial marketplace

TIPSA S.L., a Microsoft gold partner in Spain since 2007, specializes in helping companies in the wine, food, and beverage industry to integrate their business processes and optimize daily operations to promote collaborative work, mobility, security, and efficient data analysis. TIPSA focuses on creating business-specific solutions for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and Customer Engagement.

TIPSA’s portfolio of enterprise resource planning (ERP) and customer relationship management (CRM) solutions for wine-making professionals, VinoTEC, is built on Dynamics 365 Business Central and integrated with Microsoft cloud technologies such as Microsoft 365 and the Microsoft Power Platform. VinoTEC, of which VinoTEC CORE on Microsoft AppSource is a part, helps to manage financial, manufacturing, supply chain, customer service, and data analysis initiatives with confidence and long-term guarantees. The company has taken hundreds of wineries and olive oil manufacturers to Microsoft cloud technologies through VinoTEC and other apps.

A campaign to expand awareness and leads with the help of Microsoft Marketplace Rewards 

In 2021, TIPSA organized a campaign including go-to-market activities through Marketplace Rewards and the Microsoft AI Cloud Partner Program. TIPSA optimized its marketplace offer listings, announced its products through press releases featuring quotes from Microsoft executives, and published stories highlighting its success serving customers through Microsoft AppSource. These benefits continue TIPSA’s efforts to demonstrate to potential customers that its Microsoft-certified products are reliable and valuable, helping the company expand into additional markets.

TIPSA used its included Marketplace Rewards to publish four stories highlighting customer success on the Microsoft Customer Stories site. These stories were promoted on social media by Microsoft and incorporated into TIPSA’s marketing campaign materials. Thousands of potential customers learned about TIPSA through the social promotions, and hundreds more viewed its success stories, leading to numerous inquiries into TIPSA products and services.
