Could you please clarify the ISV/Software Solutions competency requirements for customer references The “Competency requirements” web page (
https://partner.microsoft.com/40012621) reads:“Submit at least three customer references for tested packaged software solutions. The solution must be a business application, deployed for a minimum of five users.”
I have the following questions related to the quote above:
- Do the references have to be provided for the same software product that has undergone the ISV Testing Framework testing and received a Product ID from third party testing vendor
- If the answer to "1" is true, does this indeed limit the kind of software product to multi-user business applications
- If the answer to "1" is false, does the software product(s) for which the customer references are provided also have to be tested according to the ISV Testing Framework
