CloudServus Achieves Azure Expert MSP Certification: What It Means for Our Customers

Written by Dave Rowe | Aug 28, 2025 6:39:34 PM

CloudServus is proud to announce that we have officially earned the Microsoft Azure Expert Managed Services Provider (MSP) certification—the highest level of recognition for partners delivering Azure managed services. This designation places us in an elite group of Microsoft partners worldwide and validates our ability to help customers maximize value from their Azure environments with confidence, efficiency, and security. 

What Is the Azure Expert MSP Program? 

The Azure Expert MSP certification is Microsoft’s gold standard for managed service partners. To achieve it, partners must undergo a rigorous independent audit of their people, processes, and technology. The certification requires demonstrated expertise in: 

  • Cloud Strategy and Migration: Planning, moving, and modernizing workloads on Azure. 
  • Operations and Governance: Implementing best practices for security, cost management, and compliance. 
  • Managed Services at Scale: Providing 24x7 monitoring, automation, and ongoing optimization for enterprise Azure environments. 
  • Customer Success: Proven track records of delivering business outcomes through Azure adoption. 

Simply put, Azure Expert MSP partners are trusted by Microsoft to deliver enterprise-grade Azure services at the highest standards. Learn more from Microsoft. 

Why This Matters for Our Clients  


For customers, the Azure Expert MSP badge is a guarantee that CloudServus can help you: 

  • Seamlessly manage Azure at enterprise scale: From migration to modernization, we provide a full lifecycle of Azure services. 
  • Reduce risk and downtime: Our processes are certified to deliver secure, compliant, and resilient Azure environments. 
  • Optimize costs continuously: Through our Cloud FinOps services and our partnership with FLOAT FinOps, we ensure Azure environments are cost-efficient and aligned with business goals. 
  • Unlock EA-to-CSP flexibility: As discussed in our internal team call, most CSP partners cannot touch Azure Enterprise enrollments. Without Azure Expert MSP status, transitioning from an Enterprise Agreement (EA) to CSP can require a full migration—often costly and risky. As an Azure Expert MSP, CloudServus can simplify this transition, minimizing downtime and complexity. 

A Competitive Advantage for Customers Leaving EA 

This recognition also comes at a critical time. With Microsoft phasing out EA price level discounts for Online Services in November 2025, many enterprises are rethinking whether EA remains the right program. CSP offers flexibility, but not every partner can handle the transition from an Azure Enterprise enrollment. 

This makes CloudServus one of the few partners positioned to guide enterprises through this pivotal transition while protecting performance, costs, and continuity.
