We're happy to announce a partnership between Zive and Microsoft Azure to deliver the most advanced and secure AI-powered enterprise search to customers in Europe and the US.
Zive has been using Microsoft Azure's managed services to deliver outstanding AI and search experiences to customers, providing a turnkey solution that can be deployed in a short period of time to increase employee productivity and motivation. The decision to go with Microsoft Azure has been taken early in the scale-up process of Zive for the following reasons:
- Microsoft Azure provides the most advanced AI services amongst all large hyper-scalers, including secure LLMs from OpenAI and Mistral.
- Microsoft Azure has proven to be a secure and trusted platform for many European enterprises, particularly offering isolated EU data center locations.
- Microsoft Azure offers native integrations to Microsoft 365, the most widely used digital workplace and collaboration platform.
Now, Zive and Microsoft Azure have entered into a definitive partnership agreement through which Microsoft will provide advanced cloud services to Zive free of charge as part of its Microsoft Startups program, effectively funding Zive's future development. This underpins Microsoft's conviction of Zive's product offering and vision.
"We're excited to have been chosen by Microsoft for this program and that Microsoft will help us grow and advance our product platform. We remain convinced that Microsoft Azure is the perfect platform for Zive and our future technological requirements. Particularly, Microsoft's commitment to providing the most advanced AI service offering in the world which will ensure Zive's position at the forefront of AI-powered enterprise search and knowledge management.", says Jan Marius Marquardt, CEO and co-founder of Zive.
