"InfoWorld's annual Technology of the Year awards
highlight the
value of more powerful systems, more flexible storage,
richer
networks, more
elegant applications, smoother integration,
automated management, and granular
security. The real winners
are the
organizations implementing these
technologies."

gratified to see
CrownPeak CMS gain this
recognition,” said Jim Howard,
