ActiveReports from GrapeCity PowerTools Wins CodeProject Members Choice Award for Best Reporting

June 15, 2011 - PRLog -- GrapeCity announced today that ActiveReports  has won the Best Reporting award from CodeProject.com, one of the world’s largest online developer communities. Code Project announced the winners of their Third Annual Members Choice Awards for best development products and tools at a reception preceding Microsoft®’s TechEd 2011 conference in Atlanta.

CodeProject.com members were asked to rate their favorites products. The Code Project staff then compiled the highest rated listings, awarding the highest ranked in each product category. The results reflect actual perceptions of what developers value.

According to Jeff Hadfield, president of The Code Project “While development needs and platforms change, developers still need quality tools to get the job done. In fact, as platforms diversify, quality tools are more essential than ever before. The Code Project Members Choice Awards reflect the diversity and depth of developer tools. Congratulations to the award winners, and to the development community for encouraging innovation and excellence.”

“We would like to thank The Code Project community members for acknowledging our contributions. This award reinforces our claim that ActiveReports offers much greater business value compared to conventional Reporting products,” commented Rick Williamson, General Manager of GrapeCity’s PowerTools Division. “ActiveReports continues to deliver the high-quality features and value that our customers require. In addition to its extensive API for complete customization, ease-of-use, and royalty-free deployment, ActiveReports has proven to be a better alternative for many development shops that may be using other reporting tools that they are simply not satisfied with, such as Crystal Reports.”
