The BackOffice Logo Program

What advantage is there in using the Logo?

The Designed for Microsoft BackOffice Logo was developed to help users easily identify hardware and software products designed specifically to take advantage of Microsoft BackOffice. Using the Logo helps customers understand that your product is designed to give them extra benefits when used with Microsoft BackOffice! And you share the advantage of the investment that Microsoft has in these trademarks, as well as the momentum behind the BackOffice family.

How can the Logo help me market my product?

Licensing the Designed for Microsoft BackOffice Logo allows you to use this symbol to concisely communicate a strong quality message to users of BackOffice. What makes the BackOffice Logo unique among the many Logo programs in the industry is that, in order to qualify to carry the Logo, a software or hardware product must meet a high technical standard. The BackOffice Logo requirements ensure that the product carrying the logo takes advantage of the key BackOffice technologies customers find most important. The Logo will effectively position and promote your BackOffice-based product.

Do I need to do anything special in order to use the Logo?

YES. The Designed for Microsoft BackOffice Logo is a valuable corporate asset belonging to Microsoft. We make this Logo available through a trademark license to the approved companies who pass logo testing.
