Industry Recognitions and Awards

Market-leading suite for building rich line-of-business applications once again hailed by the software development community

WALTHAM, MA, MAY 26, 2011 – Telerik, an end-to-end provider of tools for software development and content management solutions, today announced that it has been selected as one of The Code Project’s® 2011 Members Choice Awards winners. As part of the third annual member-driven competition, Telerik’s RadControls for Silverlight was named the winner in the Silverlight Tools category. As one of the largest global independent online developer communities, the award reflects Telerik’s deep level of engagement with the developer community and represents a ringing endorsement for RadControls by The Code Project’s 3.5 million monthly readers.

According to Jeff Hadfield, president of The Code Project (USA), “While development needs and platforms change, developers still need quality tools to get the job done. In fact, as platforms diversify, quality tools are more essential than ever before. The Code Project Members Choice Awards reflect the diversity and depth of developer tools. Congratulations to the award winners, and to the development community for encouraging innovation and excellence.”

Telerik RadControls for Silverlight offers more than 40 robust controls, an easy-to-use API, and powerful theming capabilities, as well as support for Expression Blend, Visual Studio 2010, and SharePoint 2010. One of the industry’s most comprehensive, feature-rich toolsets, RadControls for Silverlight delivers formidable databinding, customization, and visualization functionality.

Members of CodeProject.com were first asked to rate their favorite development tools to select finalists in each category, and a pool of randomly selected members was then asked to rank their favorites among the finalists. With the final polling completed, Code Project editors compiled the highest-rated products, awarding the highest ranked product in each category. Recognition by The Code Project members is the latest in a string of awards for Telerik’s market-leading toolset.

“In the expanding, rapidly evolving software development ecosystem, developers need a solid foundation that they can rely upon to drive both productivity and innovation,” said Svetozar Georgiev, CEO of Telerik. “The results of the Members Choice Awards are a reflection of where developers perceive the greatest value based on personal experience. Telerik is pleased and grateful for this recognition by The Code Project and the developer community at large.”
