"With this acknowledgement, our customers can be confident they are receiving the premiere data protection solution for their environment, regardless of its complexity or size." _Redmond_ magazine's Reader's Choice Award winners were chosen by the readers of the publication during a two-week period, and presented to vendors in 68 categories ranging from virtualization and cloud services to storage management and server infrastructure. In an effort to determine which third-party products readers prefer to support their core Microsoft infrastructures, products branded and sold by Microsoft were not eligible for consideration in this year's balloting. "To help you make better decisions about what ancillary tools help extend the platform we concluded the only way to provide a clear picture was to exclude Microsoft," said _Redmond_ editor Jeff Schwartz. "The results speak for themselves, recognizing a number of important products that would otherwise be overshadowed."
