"When they want to share information, they use Microsoft Teams. They use Azure IoT to gather data, and Power BI to visualize information and share with other departments at Lillestrøm, and also to support citizens in other municipalities. And we host everything on Azure, so it’s 100 percent Microsoft."
"Once again, we're now looking to Microsoft to take us on the next stage of our journey; scaling the modern data platform, introducing real time and event-driven ingestion and processing and migrating on premise systems to the Cloud."
"Our plan is to roll this out across other segments, completing it by 2022, where we will have predictive intelligence capabilities based on Azure AI and machine learning across our entire portfolio."
"It was time to modernize the solution. Microsoft continues to provide deep collaboration and support for the migration to Azure and development efforts leveraging Microsoft native services. The Microsoft team is available for us when we need them. A big differentiator was Microsoft’s help providing the required agility and scalability.”
"Azure Cognitive Services, with its family of AI-based services and APIs, provides us with foundational capabilities to innovate upon and bring our vision of adding a smart assistant to every step of the consumer and caregiver journey."
"The efficiency with which Microsoft could share the technology was impressive, because it's one thing for us to say, ‘Take these protocols and run with them,’ but the ability for Microsoft's reach to make that happen very, very quickly was really impressive."
"Microsoft has become the industry standard for image storage in the hospital and research communities. Add to that the prospects of Azure Machine Learning and Azure Cognitive Services, and you’ve got a game-changing proposition."
“There’s value in building on the solid foundations and strong business fundamentals that Microsoft delivers for rapidly growing technology companies like ours.”
“Microsoft holds the leading position in training language models. Naturally, we wanted to work with the top technology for this project.”
“These models will also be based on Microsoft solutions.”
"Azure offered us a full-service catalog, with everything from Azure Form Recognizer to simple data stores and integration technologies. It’s been our one-stop shop."
"I regard the Water-cooler app as the practical combination of digital collaboration and behavioral insights built on Microsoft 365 technologies—creating a solution that helps connect people and enhances culture digitally while embracing virtual and hybrid ways of working."
"My biggest hope is that we’ve backed ourselves into a revolution. I can have a virtual watercooler moment with anyone on the planet with the Watercooler app in Microsoft Teams, whether we have physical proximity or not. I think that’s a big deal."
“That’s why we rolled out Azure AD during the initial implementation. We wanted to secure how members interact with the new portal and also use a single sign-on solution to secure other web assets that are accessible to external users.”
“I envisioned CPSO as an end-to-end Microsoft shop with one platform that we could build on top of.”
