We recently had a problem with our IT infrastructure not having total license compliance and turned to SSK to help. They were able to quickly assess the situation and implement a solution, which was much less expensive than we anticipated. We now have a fully licensed environment and SSK is now our trusted Microsoft supplier, and couldn’t be happier with the service they provide.
