Evidence Center — enterprise Microsoft consulting resource from EPC Group. We provide strategic guidance, implementation expertise, governance frameworks, and compliance-native delivery across the Microsoft ecosystem (Power BI, Microsoft Fabric, Microsoft 365, SharePoint, Azure, AI Governance, Microsoft Copilot).
Every consulting firm says they are the best. Here is independent, third-party proof that EPC Group delivers. G2 Leader ratings, a perfect NPS score, Microsoft validation, and 11,000+ enterprise engagements — verified by platforms we do not control.
EPC Group's track record is independently verified by G2, Trustpilot, Clutch, and Microsoft. Key numbers: G2 Leader for 4 consecutive quarters, NPS of 100, 10,000+ enterprise implementations, and Microsoft Solutions Partner status across all six designations. Third-party proof — not self-reported claims.
G2 awards are based on verified customer reviews — not vendor nominations or paid placements. EPC Group's G2 Leader status reflects what clients say after the project is complete.
Microsoft Solutions Partner status is verified directly by Microsoft. It is not self-reported. The six designations require active project delivery, customer satisfaction scores, and certified staff — reviewed annually.
EPC Group held Microsoft Gold Partner status from 2016 until program retirement in 2022. It was the oldest continuous Gold Partner in North America. When Microsoft retired the Gold Partner program in 2022, EPC Group achieved all six Solutions Partner designations on launch day.
EPC Group tracks six satisfaction metrics for every engagement. These are not aspirational targets — they are tracked per project and reported to clients.
Evidence is not just about volume. For regulated industries, compliance track record matters as much as implementation count.
Through G2 (verified customer reviews, 9.8/10 rating, 4 consecutive Leader quarters), Trustpilot (verified client reviews), Clutch.co (detailed project reviews), and Microsoft (Solutions Partner designation verified directly by Microsoft every renewal cycle).
EPC Group's Net Promoter Score (NPS) is 100 — based on verified client surveys conducted after project completion. An NPS of 100 means every surveyed client is a Promoter. The NPS scale runs from -100 to +100.

Microsoft Solutions Partner designations replaced the Microsoft Gold Partner program in 2022. There are six designations. Each requires active delivery of verified client projects, certified staff in relevant technologies, and annual Microsoft review.

EPC Group's track record is validated by multiple independent sources: G2 Leader status for 4 consecutive quarters in Enterprise IT Consulting, a Net Promoter Score (NPS) of 100 based on verified client surveys, Microsoft Solutions Partner designation (verified directly by Microsoft), Trustpilot reviews from verified clients, Clutch.co verified reviews with detailed project feedback, and over 10,000 implementations completed across Fortune 500 and regulated industries.

EPC Group maintains a Net Promoter Score (NPS) of 100, which is the highest possible NPS score. NPS is measured through post-project client surveys asking 'How likely are you to recommend EPC Group?' on a 0-10 scale. Scores of 9-10 are Promoters, 7-8 are Passives, and 0-6 are Detractors. NPS = % Promoters minus % Detractors. An NPS of 100 means every surveyed client gave a 9 or 10. For context, the average NPS in IT consulting is 35-45, and scores above 70 are considered world-class.
Microsoft Solutions Partner is the current (post-2022) replacement for the legacy Microsoft Gold Partner program. It requires demonstrated technical competency validated by Microsoft through customer deployments, certified professionals on staff, and measurable customer success metrics.

This designation is verified and renewed by Microsoft annually — it cannot be self-claimed or purchased.

Yes. EPC Group provides references from healthcare organizations (HIPAA-regulated), financial services firms (FINRA/SEC-regulated), government agencies (FedRAMP environments), and educational institutions (FERPA-compliant).

Microsoft Solutions Partner status (six designations: Data & AI, Modern Work, Infrastructure, Security, Digital & App Innovation, Business Applications) replaced the legacy Microsoft Gold Partner program in 2022. EPC Group held Gold Partner status from 2003 to 2022 (the oldest continuous Gold Partner in North America) and currently holds all six Solutions Partner designations; a credentialing footprint shared by fewer than 50 firms globally and typically used by Microsoft field teams as a vetting gate for enterprise Customer 0 nominations and named-account engagements.
EPC Group 29-year Microsoft consulting heritage matters specifically because Microsoft platform decisions today are layered on top of 25 years of architectural choices: Active Directory schema decisions from 2005 affect Microsoft Entra ID Conditional Access policy design in 2026; SharePoint 2003 information architecture decisions affect Copilot grounding quality in 2026. The firms that can navigate that depth (fewer than a dozen Microsoft Solutions Partners in North America) have a structural advantage on enterprise Microsoft migrations.
