The Best of Tech·Ed Awards Program, produced by Windows IT Pro, SQL Server Magazine, SharePointProConnections and DevProConnections, recognize the innovative products and services showcased at the conference.

It was an exhilarating evening at Microsoft TechEd in Atlanta last night as XIO’s Hyper ISE won TechEd’s Best of TechEd “Breakthrough Product” of 2011. Here is the article posted this AM in WindowsITPro:

The “Breakthrough Product” award spans all categories and covers the entire event. There were over 300 Best of TechEd submissions and 46 Finalists that Hyper ISE competed against. Many would argue that this is the most important award of the night. As you can imagine, the entire XIO team and I were thrilled when Hyper ISE was announced as the winner of this incredibly prestigious award.

We didn’t think the evening could get any better.

Immediately following is the Best of TechEd “Attendees’ Pick” award. This award is voted on by TechEd Attendees who have reviewed the Finalists products and voted for the best product at the event (sort of a People’s Choice Award). Once again, Hyper ISE took home the award. After all the effort that the entire company has invested in bringing Hyper ISE to market, these awards provided an incredible boost and underscored the revolutionary status of this new technology.

The XIO team in Atlanta and around the globe is thrilled to win both awards at Microsoft’s largest user conference. If you are in Atlanta at TechEd, make sure to stop by the booth and checkout the Hyper ISE we have available for hand-on demos. Booth #1615!
