Delphi Informant杂志 2003年度读者选择大奖名单

Best Installation Package

Slugfest resolved. This category continues to be dominated by the two installation giants: InstallShield Software and Wise Solutions. InstallShield is clearly pulling ahead in your estimation, however. After beating Wise last year by 6 points, InstallShield has gone on to best Wise easily by 19 points.

Best Library

Into the breach. TurboPower''''s SysTools had taken first place in this category for the last three years. Last year, however, after losing ground in 2001, SysTools edged out runner-up, ExpressBars Suite (Developer Express) by just three percentage points. If that trend had continued, ExpressBars Suite would have won this year. With SysTools gone, it''''s a moot point of course, and ExpressBars Suite won easily with 41% of your votes. ElPack (EldoS) finished a respectable second with 12%.

Best Modeling/CASE Tool

A question of scale. ModelMaker and Rational Rose have finished first and second (respectively) in this category for three years now, but ModelMaker Tools'''' offering continues to pull away from the Rational Software product. In 2001 they finished with 27% and 22%, last year it was 40% and 21%, and this year the numbers are 54% and 19%, respectively. And despite the stiff competition, Developer Express'''' CDK garnered a respectable 12% to take third place. If these trends continue, Developer Express will be right in there with Rational.

Best Reporting Tool

Slippery slope. This category also features a long-time winner, ReportBuilder (Digital Metaphors), in first place. However, its numbers have slipped a bit again this year. In 2001 in had 57% of the votes, 54% in 2002, and this year the percentage has dropped to 37%. Moving the other direction, FastReport (FR-Software & A.Tzyganenko) is runner-up again, and continues to gain ground. In 2001 it had 12% of the votes, it had 20% in 2002, and it has climbed to 29% this year. Rave BEX (Borland Edition EXtended) finished third, its best showing ever, undoubtedly on the strength of having a version bundled with Delphi.

Best Scheduling/Calendar

Critical path confirmed. This category enters its second year with the same winner and runner-up. TMS TPlanner/TDBPlanner (TMS Software) took first place with 63% (building on last year''''s 51%), while Jazmine Calendar/PIM Widgets (Jazmine Components) took second place again with 17% (virtually the same as last year''''s 18%).

Best Security Tool

Better safe. This is the first of three new categories. Security has become so important, I''''m surprised we haven''''t called out this category before. In previous years, these tools ended up in various categories such as Best Utility, so it''''s good to see them finally competing head-to-head. First place goes to UIL Security System (Unlimited Intelligence Limited) with 28% of the votes. The runner-up is IP*Works! SSL (/n software) with 22%.

Best Team/Project Tool

E pluribus unum. Another new category this year, Best Team/Project isn''''t as crowded as the previous group, but the competition was fierce, with three of the four contenders making solid finishes. With 37% of the votes, Team Coherence (Quality Software Components) has first place to itself. Not far behind however, is PVCS Professional (Merant) with 33%. Rounding out the top three, AQdevTeam (AutomatedQA) placed a very respectable third with 27%.

Best Testing/QA Tool

Test results. AutomatedQA goes from a respectable third in the previous category to a dominating first place in this one, with its TestComplete product taking 60% of the votes. DevPartner Studio (Compuware) and Rational Robot (IBM Rational) share second-place honors as each received 18% of your votes.

Best Training

Sir yes sir! Last year''''s surprise winner, Jensen Data Systems, takes the Best Training prize again, this year with 30% of you voting for their Delphi Developer Days workshops. There''''s a new face as runner-up, however, with Kazoo Software''''s 24% besting last year''''s runner-up InfoCan''''s 15%.  

Best Utility

YAT (yet another tie). ASPack (from ASPack Software) is a repeat winner with 23% of the vote (down from last year''''s 30%). But with the absence of TurboPower, ASPack must share the win with VM Workstation (VMware), which managed to pass last year''''s third-place finisher, Beyond Compare (Scooter Software), which improved its percentage to 16% from last year''''s 12%.

Best VCL Component

Best Grid. Your pick for Best VCL Component is ExpressQuantumGrid (Developer Express) for the third year running. It got more votes than ever this year, and a higher percentage as well - 43% as compared to last year''''s 39%. TAdvStringGrid (TMS Software) repeats as runner-up with 16%. Since most of the third-party grids fall into this category, ExpressQuantumGrid can rightly claim to be Best Grid.

Best VCL Component Set

Game, set, match. Developer Express wins in this category as well, and for the second year in a row. You gave ExpressQuantumPack 28% of your vote (as opposed to last year''''s 22%). TMS Software is also a repeat as runner-up with its TMS Component Pack and 20%. Raize Components (from Raize Software) finishes a strong third - from a field of 23! - with 14%.

Best Web Development Tool

Something old, something new. Last year''''s winner, IntraWeb from AToZed Software, strengthened its position in this category with a whopping 62% of the tally (last year it had 41%). This year''''s runner-up, ExpressWeb Framework (Developer Express) replaces last year''''s runner-up, Internet Professional (TurboPower) with 25% of the vote, vaulting past last year''''s third-place finisher, ASP Express (Marotz Delphi Group), which fell to fifth place.

Best Web Host

Host with the most for Delphi folks. Our last new category recognizes the Web host you liked best. Defined Systems was the clear winner with 31% of your votes. There was a tie for runner-up between Reddi-Web and 1&1 Hosting, each with 17% of the votes.

Product of the Year

Winds of change. ReportBuilder has been the recent perennial champion in this special category, but its reign has ended (it actually fell to fifth place!).

Your new choice for Product of the Year is Help & Manual from EC Software. The number two spot changed hands as well, with ExpressQuantumGrid (Developer Express) replacing Advantage Database Server. Just for fun, here are the products that placed first and second as POY over the year
