Your views count

A big thank you to all of the end-users and purchasers of business software applications for taking part in the Software Satisfaction Awards 2008 survey - your views count. The survey has now closed, and the analysis to find the leading software houses and resellers has begun.

THE SHORTLIST - shortlist announcement has been delayed slightly due to the sheer volume of votes. With over 7,000 completed surveys, the analysis is taking a touch longer than we first anticipated. Our apologies - the shortlist will be announced early next week, hopefully before close of business on Monday.
