Setapp shortlisted for 2019 Software as a Service Awards

For the second year in a row Setapp has made it to the list of Software as a Service Awards finalists. A completely new milestone, always a huge pleasure. 

As we grow, the recognitions we collect change. In 2018, we were honored by the SaaS Awards in the category “Best SaaS Newcomer.” Today we are happy to appear in the new role — a nominee for Best Product for Productivity (non-US). The transition from a complete beginner to one of the best products enhancing user productivity is a big leap for us. And we’re full of hope to make a successful landing in September, when the list of winners will be announced. 

About SaaS Awards 

The SaaS Awards is a prestigious program running alongside the Cloud Awards. The two make a perfect combination for the review and recognition of SaaS services and cloud computing achievements globally. Catering for diverse representation, the Awards recognize both US and non-US companies — these make two different category streams. Whatever the size, vertical, or target audience, everyone is welcome to apply. 

“In our fourth year promoting SaaS exclusively alongside its sister awards program, the Cloud Awards, we have again seen a wide range of entries from Canada, Europe, Australia and the East joining those from the US,” says the awards organizer, Larry Johnson. “All seek to provide essential productivity tools to their users by leveraging cloud-based software solutions. The judges are set to have a nearly impossible task when selecting the final winners in a few short weeks.” 

Throughout the awards existence, many of the world-known companies like Red Hat, Marketo, IBM, and Verizon have been recognized across different nominations. The final decisions are made by a panel of professional judges specialized in marketing, SaaS research, and tech.

Why we are happy to join the SaaS Awards crowd 

Harvesting accolades is never the end goal, although we’ve collected quite many over the two years of Setapp’s existence. From “Consumer Product of the Year” on Product Hunt to being named one of the top 10 most innovative companies by Fast Company. What matters the most, though, is the awards we collect matching the value we put in front of our customers. 

Through clever app discovery, we want Mac users to be more productive — both at the workplace and at home. To achieve the goal, Setapp is constantly expanding its collection of Mac apps, including our hand-picked bundles of productivity tools. So honoring Setapp as a productivity solution was right in the heart. 

The winners will be announced by September 3. Make sure you check back here to see the results.
