The 2006 Windows IT Pro Readers Choice Awards continue our tradition of honoring products that our readers tell us are most worthy of recognition, said Paulsen. These are the hardware, software, and services that measure up where it counts most--in the businesses, agencies, and institutions that rely on them to deliver what they promise.

Readers were asked to vote on their product preferences in 12 broad technology categories. More than 5,200 readers chose the best among more than 750 products and services.

The IT pros who voted in this year's awards are tough, in-the-trenches critics, Paulsen continued. They demand solid value and performance from the products they use and put those products to the test day after day. Paulsen concluded, Readers' Choice award winners can feel proud that the products and services they develop have earned the respect and recognition of the IT world's most knowledgeable and exacting professionals.
