Perforce Software announces a partnership with Microsoft to deliver the free Enhanced Studio Pack, providing development tools in a click-to-start model on the Azure cloud.

By providing enterprise tools in a simple, pre-configured environment — with the infrastructure needed to support large files, numerous iterations, and remote team members — any studio can get up and running fast. This makes it possible for studios to develop high-quality, game-changing experiences quickly.

For studios looking to capitalize on cloud benefits and avoid a costly hardware investment, the Enhanced Studios Pack combines the world-class development tools trusted by the largest AAA game development studios to enable creativity, collaboration, and speed, with Microsoft Azure, the cloud provider trusted by 95% of Fortune 500 companies. To help jumpstart innovation, Azure is offering $500 credits to the first 200 customers who sign up for the Enhanced Studio Pack on https://www.perforce.com/perforce-and-cloud.

The click-to-start Enhanced Studio Pack Azure deployment can be used by small creative studios looking to accelerate and win in an ever-competitive market, or large entertainment companies that need to quickly spin up new projects. ​

To help studios scale quickly and efficiently, Perforce also offers remote administrative services. Helix Remote Admin (HRA) allows studios to focus on their work while a team of Perforce experts optimize their cloud deployment and protect against the risks associated with downtime.

Perforce Software continues to expand its cloud offerings to give teams the flexibility they need to accelerate their time to market and easily scale resources to match demand, with no limitations.
