RESAAS Services Inc., an enterprise social networking platform for real estate professionals, mortgage specialists as well as home buyers and sellers, is pleased to announce it is a finalist at the 2012 IMPACT Awards, an annual awards ceremony recognizing innovation and excellence in Microsoft Partners.

“We are thrilled to have been selected as a finalist for this year’s IMPACT Awards,” says Tom Rossiter, Chief Technology Officer at RESAAS. “We are aware of how many nominations are submitted for these awards in particular, so to receive this kind of recognition directly from Microsoft is a testament to the quality of the RESAAS Platform.”

RESAAS is one of three finalists in the prestigious “Windows Azure Platform Partner of the Year” category, which specifically recognizes exceptional software in the cloud.

“In addition to our poster-child use of the Azure cloud, we have also received great feedback on our Real Estate Q&A Windows 8 App,” Rossiter continues. “Our relationship with Microsoft allows us to continue to not only leverage emerging technologies, but also allows RESAAS to keep providing immense value to our users.”

The winners will be announced at the IMPACT Awards Gala at the Four Seasons Hotel in Toronto, Ontario on November 13th, 2012.
