After carefully evaluating close to 200 individual product entries, our panel of judges has selected the finalists for the Best of TechEd 2009 Awards.
Editors from Windows IT Pro and SQL Server Magazine will be scheduling meetings with vendors onsite at TechEd 2009 next month in Los Angeles to complete the judging process and select winners in each of the categories listed below.
Note: The Breakthrough Product and Best Microsoft Product category winners will be selected by the judges at TechEd.
The winners will be selected by a judging panel of editors from Windows IT Pro and SQL Server Magazine, and are evaluated based on each finalist's strategic importance, competitive advantage, and value to customers.
TechEd attendees will also be able to vote for their own favorite products with the Attendees’ Pick Award. Winners will be announced at an awards ceremony to be held on Wednesday, May 13, 2009 in Los Angeles at a location near the Conference Center. Winners will be announced, from Windows IT Pro and SQL Server Magazine booth, during lunch on Thursday, May 14, 2009.
