Product of the Year

With a variety of products and services from which to choose, it takes quite a following to take top honors in this category. Emerging as your favorite from all the contestants on this year’s asp.netPRO Readers’ Choice Awards ballot is DiscountASP.NET. Honorable mention goes to product of the year runner-up, ComponentArt Web.UI for ASP.NET.

 

Congratulations and Thanks

I’d like to thank all the third-party vendors who create the products and services included in our survey. The products they create and the risks they take to bring them to market are what these awards are all about. Their efforts make our ASP.NET development efforts more efficient, more productive, and, hopefully, more profitable. Congratulations to every company on the ballot; there would be no ASP.NET community without their efforts.

 

And I’d be remiss if I didn’t extend my thanks to all of you in the ASP.NET community who took time to vote. The asp.netPRO Readers’ Choice Awards really do belong to you — we simply tabulate the votes and report the results. By selecting the winners, you have recognized those who have excelled at their craft — and issued a challenge to all the others.
