"Given the intense competition in the Codie Awards this year, we are especially honored to once again be chosen as a finalist," said Thomas Charlton, Shunra CEO. "This noteworthy achievement is reflective of the superiority of the Shunra VE solution, especially when pitted against competitors in the industry. It also further reinforces why so many leading companies throughout the world that have chosen, and continue to choose, Shunra VE over competitors, and why we are winning so many industry awards. Shunra VE provides companies with the information they need to make decisions about application and network performance throughout the development lifecycle quickly and easily, enabling them to avoid post-deployment issues."
The Codie Awards celebrate outstanding achievement and vision in the software, digital information, and education technology industries. Finalists in the competition are chosen through a combination of journalist and peer review involving over 219 individuals in the trade press, consulting, educators, IT specialists, and other neutral specialists. Finalists in the 2007 competition were chosen from a record-setting 1,200 plus nominations, representing over 600 companies.
"The 2007 Codie Finalists represent real winners, even at this stage of the contest," said Ken Wasch, SIIA President. "Competition is fiercer than ever and that makes selection as a Codie finalist a major achievement. All the companies on this year’s list should feel justifiably proud of their recognition."
Other recent awards won by Shunra include Frost and Sullivan’s 2006 Award for Growth Strategy Leadership, Internet Telephony Magazine’s Product of the Year award for both 2006 and 2007, Internet Telephony Magazine’s 2006 Best of Show Award, and the 2006 IT Standard Editors Choice Award. Shunra is also a 2006 Deloitte Fast 500 EMEA finalist, and a 2006 Red Herring 200 Europe finalist.
Shunra VE is a highly robust, comprehensive network simulation solution that creates a virtual network environment in the pre-deployment lab. It delivers a powerful, flexible and easy way to test the performance of applications and network equipment under a wide variety of network impairments -- exactly as if they were running in a real production environment -- throughout the development lifecycle. With Shunra VE, users understand the impact that the network and applications have on each others’ performance and on remote end-users’ experiences, and can uncover and resolve production-related problems -- before rollout.
In addition to the empirical experience, Shunra VE provides a wide range of graphically rich reports and drill-down analysis capabilities. These help isolate and resolve the root causes of network and application problems early and determine whether any modifications to the application, network or infrastructure are needed.
