Dell Software shines at Windows annual awards

When it comes to helping our customers with Windows management solutions, Dell Software Group (“DSG”) aims to provide only the best, simplest solutions in the market.  To that end, this year DSG has done just that by ensuring excellence and thereby winning in 15 different categories for the Windows IT Pro annual “Editors’ Best” and “Community Choice” awards. We are so honored and proud of these accolades from both the publication editors and the community of users, recognizing DSG as a standout from the competition.  Moreover, we are so pleased to be able to help our customers solve the challenges involved in governing, managing and securing Windows environments in an already complex IT landscape.

Since the formation of the DSG earlier this year, our goal has been to make it easier for global organizations to buy and use a range of scalable software solutions that empower CIO’s who want to empower their business.  We do this by focusing on solutions that help simplify IT, solutions that mitigate risks and thus keep IT focused on accelerating business results. We were particularly pleased that Dell stood out in both award categories thanks to our end-to-end software solutions and user-friendly tools.
