Partnerpedia Receives Unified Communications[R] Magazine's 2010 Product of the Year Award.

Partnerpedia announced that TMC, a global, integrated media company, has named its Community Marketplace solution as a recipient of its 2010 Unified Communications magazine Product of the Year Award.

Partnerpedia's Community Marketplace is a private label, cloud service that allows vendors to deploy an ISV solutions marketplace or an enterprise app store around their brand of products. Community Marketplace allows vendors to create a thriving community of partners and developers who can offer customers value added products and application solutions.

Whether for tablets or cloud platform, vendors whose products depend on a vibrant partner ecosystem can leverage Community Marketplace as a customizable, turnkey solution that gives their partners a way to easily monetize the solutions they've built around the vendor's brand. Their customers, in turn, benefit from having a convenient destination where they can search, inquire, and purchase complete products and solutions.

"As more and more tablets and smart devices enter the enterprise market, new challenges arise due to the complexities of the applications, services and products that businesses use," said Geoff Mair, CTO at Partnerpedia. "Through the Community Marketplace solution, device and platform manufacturers can offer their corporate customers a marketplace focused on business applications, as well as a way for IT departments to securely distribute and manage apps internally to end-users."

"Partnerpedia has proven they are committed to quality and excellence while addressing real needs in the marketplace. Unified Communications is pleased to grant a 2010 Product of the Year Award for their Community Marketplace," said Rich Tehrani, CEO, TMC. "We're proud to honor their hard work and accomplishments and look forward to more innovative solutions from Partnerpedia in the future."

Product of the Year Award winners are published in the April 2011 issue of Unified Communications magazine.
