Industry Recognitions and Awards

Strong showing by market frontrunner highlights technology innovation, industry-leading support

WALTHAM, MA, December 1, 2011 – Telerik, an end-to-end provider of software application lifecycle and content management solutions, today announced it has garnered a multitude of honors in Penton Media's annual DevProConnections Readers Choice Awards. The company achieved acclaim in more than a dozen different categories, including Gold Medals for Telerik Test Studio and RadControls. It also was bestowed with a Gold Medal in the "Best Vendor Support" category, underscoring Telerik's commitment to providing customers with industry leading support.

"For our 2011 Community Choice awards, we continued to see a surge in community participation," said Jason Bovberg, senior editor at Windows IT Pro. "Our Windows IT Pro, SQL Server Magazine and DevProConnections awards programs are unique in that the product-nomination process is open to readers. We don't just present a predefined list of products and services, thereby limiting scope. Instead, the community both nominates and votes for the best products of the year, ensuring a nice breadth of inclusion in the surveys. The winners of these awards are truly the community favorites. Our winners have earned a unique honor to stand out among their peers as winners of our Community Choice Awards."
