Versent Achieves Microsoft Specialisation in Accelerating Developer Productivity with Azure

This specialisation is awarded to partners who demonstrate real-world expertise in improving developer velocity, creating streamlined, secure DevOps environments, and using Microsoft Azure to drive better software outcomes. For us at Versent, it’s a recognition of the work we do every day: helping teams modernise their development practices, not just for today’s projects, but to set them up for whatever comes next.

Why developer productivity matters now more than ever

Keeping pace with change isn’t enough; real success comes from moving faster, building smarter, and staying resilient.
Developer productivity isn’t about writing more code; it’s about creating the right foundations so teams can deliver quality software quickly, safely, and sustainably.
Technology alone won’t solve that. It takes the right platforms, thoughtful ways of working, and a culture that genuinely supports developers.

That’s where Versent fits in, working side-by-side with our customers to create environments where great ideas move smoothly from concept to production.

Our approach: build better, together

At Versent, we don’t just help you ‘move to Azure’, we help you rethink the way you build. We work closely with your teams to create secure, scalable development environments that remove friction and speed up delivery.

With Azure DevOps, GitHub, and Microsoft’s developer services — plus the power of AI tools like GitHub Copilot and Azure AI Foundry — we help development teams automate more, focus better, and deliver faster. We’re passionate about building modern software delivery environments that are clean, consistent, and cloud-native from day one.

We focus on:

• Developer Experience: Giving your teams the right tools, seamless access, and smart AI-assisted workflows that remove roadblocks and let them focus on great engineering.
• Automation and DevOps: Building strong pipelines that automate security, testing, deployments, and more, so releases are faster and safer.
• Cloud-Native Practices: Using containers, microservices, serverless patterns and event-driven architecture where they make sense, so apps are more scalable, resilient, and cost-effective.
• Security by Design: Embedding security and compliance checks into every part of the software delivery lifecycle, without slowing anyone down.

We back it all up with strong engineering foundations and a practical, no-nonsense approach that gets real results.

Real results, real impact

This specialisation isn’t just a badge, it’s based on real-world proof. Microsoft only awards it to partners who can show successful customer outcomes: faster release cycles, better developer satisfaction, smarter use of cloud services, and improvements to security and reliability.

At Versent, we’ve helped customers across financial services, government, retail, and more to modernise how they build software, cutting time-to-market, improving security, and building platforms that make life easier for developers. Whether it’s automating app delivery for a logistics giant or helping a government agency build smarter citizen services, we bring a pragmatic, engineering-first mindset to every project.

What this means for our customers

If you’re looking to unlock faster, safer, smarter software delivery on Microsoft Azure, Versent brings the engineering skills, the cloud-native mindset, and the automation expertise to make it happen. We’re not here to push cookie-cutter solutions. We work with your teams, listen to what’s really needed, and help build a foundation you can actually grow on.

Achieving the DevOps with GitHub on Azure Specialisation is another step forward for us and for the customers we work with.

We’re proud of what we’ve built so far, and even more excited for what’s next.
