Voyager Software, the SME recruitment agency software specialist, today announces that it achieved official Microsoft Gold Partner status. Additionally the company's latest version of its Mid-Office product has also been awarded an outstanding 100% pass rate following rigorous tests in Microsoft's testing labs.

Microsoft Gold Certified Partners represent the highest level of competence and expertise with Microsoft technologies and have the closest working relationship with Microsoft.

Now the company has been awarded Gold Partner status, Voyager has access to the resources and support needed to stand out in the marketplace. This includes a technical services coordinator, access to the Partner Knowledge Base, priority listing in Microsoft directories and other top-level benefits.

Simon Warburton, Managing Director, commented "Microsoft tests products on a variety of areas and has obviously found Voyager's proven .NET software to be exceptional. These tests included, amongst others, the areas of Managed Code and SQL Server 2005 and I'm delighted that the results further validate the product's success and the hard work of our Project Team. This accreditation further strengthens Voyager's relationship with Microsoft building on the partner and ISV solutions status that we currently hold."
