DELIVERING IT SERVICES AND SOLUTIONS IN DUBAI AND THE UAE, TAILORED TO YOUR BUSINESS NEEDS
Unlock Your IT Power
If you’re looking to run a business from Microsoft Azure, you’ll need an Azure Subscription. With the subscription tied to a single account, this Microsoft web portal acts as a single billing unit for all of your Azure business resources.
Depending on your UAE business type, commitment level, and needs, there are multiple ways to procure a Microsoft Azure Subscription. Remember, a Microsoft Azure Subscription is different to a Microsoft Office 365 subscription.
Cloud Technologies are Indirect CSPs, meaning we provide Indirect Microsoft CSP to clients in Dubai and throughout the UAE. However, as we are an IT Company, we can provide you with the added benefit of having both a Microsoft Azure subscription and your IT Support Services provided by the company. This is advantageous as you can use an IT Support Help Desk to support your IT needs as well as a Consultancy Team that already understands your current infrastructure for any future Consultancy Services.
