Products of the Year

For the first time, the judging for the 2016 Products Of The Year went directly to those who work with them to solve problems for customers. To start, CRN editors selected five finalists among 17 technology categories and then asked solution providers to rate the products to determine a winner based on the subcategories of Technology, Revenue and Profit, and Customer Demand.

After a survey that netted more than 5,000 responses, here are the finalists and winners for each category.
