The only iPaaS fully embedded in the Azure ecosystem
If your organization runs on .NET and C#, you need an integration platform that speaks your language, aligns with your roadmap, and delivers enterprise-scale reliability. Frends is the only low-code iPaaS built natively on Microsoft Azure, designed to accelerate migrations, simplify operations and deliver transparency, control and speed.
Why complex Microsoft integration environments suffer without a unified approach
Legacy systems, point-to-point connectors, fragmented APIs, high maintenance costs and complex hybrid architectures all threaten time-to-value and destabilize operations who rely on Microsoft technologies.
Many companies still rely on BizTalk or older Microsoft integration stacks. With the looming end-of-life for BizTalk and the need to modernize, organizations struggle to reuse assets, migrate efficiently, and avoid rewriting everything from scratch.
Running parts of your landscape on Azure while keeping other systems on-premises or in hybrid mode introduces complexity in connectivity, control, security and performance.
In many Microsoft-centric environments, development remains code-heavy, monitoring is fragmented and changing or branching workflows is slow and costly.
Choosing a solution that doesn’t align with Azure consumption, marketplace purchasing, or Microsoft partner models means missed opportunities for cost-savings, governance and streamlined billing.
Integration that fits your Microsoft-first world
Frends removes the friction of integration in an Azure-centric environment and transforms your stack into a unified, automated, transparent backbone for your business.
Zero friction for .NET developers
Your Microsoft developers can be productive in Frends within 2–3 days, compared to months of training typically needed with other iPaaS platforms. Built on .NET and C#, Frends feels instantly familiar, so your team can design, deploy, and manage integrations from day one.
Full code transparency
Unlike most low-code platforms, Frends lets you access and audit the full .NET code generated by its visual workflows. This transparency gives teams complete technical validation and confidence in every process, while also enabling custom extensions when needed.
Familiar patterns & easy custom development
Frends uses .NET 8 and modern C# standards your team already knows. When you need custom connectors or specialized tasks, you can build them directly using the Frends .NET Connector SDK, leveraging the same skills and tools you use across your Microsoft ecosystem.
Key capabilities
Frends is the only iPaaS on Azure Marketplace that’s fully MACC-eligible — so every euro or dollar you spend on Frends counts toward your Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment. Procurement becomes effortless: buy directly through the Marketplace, skip long tender processes, and get started in days, not months. With automated subscription activation and a single Azure invoice, you simplify vendor management and maximize your Microsoft investment.
Frends connects every part of your Microsoft environment, from Dynamics 365 and Power Platform to SharePoint, Teams and Exchange. Pre-built connectors and native compatibility mean your systems work together seamlessly, while Azure AD B2C support strengthens customer-facing applications. A trusted Microsoft partner, Frends enhances the Microsoft stack with a simpler, more powerful integration layer that boosts Azure infrastructure and AI service adoption.
Frends brings Azure OpenAI Services and Azure AI Foundry directly into your integration workflows. Build and document processes with natural-language prompts. Generate code instantly. Orchestrate agentic AI automations with governance and compliance built-in — all within your secure Azure environment. Every AI workload stays where it belongs: in Azure, under your control.
Operate anywhere with confidence. Frends runs across multiple Azure regions worldwide — Europe, North America, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East — giving you full control over data residency and performance. Deploy hybrid architectures with ease: run agents on-premises while managing everything from Azure, or go fully on-premises if compliance demands it. Backed by Azure Availability Zones, Frends ensures enterprise-grade uptime and resilience.
“It fits perfectly into our Microsoft setup and the transition (from BizTalk) was very smooth.”
