The SmallBizWindows Product of the Year 2013: Microsoft Windows Server 2012

Windows Server 2012 is the SmallBizWindows Product of the Year 2013

It is remarkable that in a year when the Microsoft Windows client has been thoroughly reimagined as the delectable Windows 8, now in regular and RT form, that Windows Server would be in the race with Windows client as the SmallBizWindows Product of the Year.

This year though, Server 2012 is nothing of a dilettante.

While it wasn’t a dark horse, as our ardor for it was quite evident, we didn’t initially expect it to win this, our top Award.

As we went along in the process, and looked at what product would be most impactful, especially to our target demographic, Windows Server 2012 started to emerge as a likely winner.

We are pleased to bestow the SmallBizWindows Product of the Year 2013 Award on it.

To bring you more about this very transcendent product, I will attempt to see if I can setup a series of blog post where I interview a Microsoft staffer on a specific feature or subsystem, and bring that to you.

You can always reach me at John [dot] Obeto [at] absolutevista [dot] com if there is a specific feature you would like me to add to my list.

For those keeping score, Windows Server 2012 is the first ever winner of 3 awards at SmallBizWindows.

Congrats to the Server Team at Microsoft for a job well done
