Jason Bovberg, Senior Editor at Windows IT Pro:
"By providing two distinct perspectives on the market, the annual Windows IT Pro Editors' Best and Community Choice award programs offer a unique way to recognize the hottest products among the past year's offerings. Our Editors' Best program highlights products that Windows IT Pro editors and contributors believe are worthy of recognition, whereas our Community Choice program lets our readers decide which products are the best."

Lee Pender, Executive Editor, Redmond Magazine:
"The Redmond Readers Choice Awards (RCAs) are about what works right now, what makes your job easier and what you use to help you navigate the daily minefield of working in IT. The RCAs are the anti-hype. They're reality, pure and simple." "First-time entrant Netwrix Corp. takes a very competitive category with last year's winner, ScriptLogic Corp., just missing out on top honors."
