Cutting Edge Software Twice Awarded Top Honors by Tap Magazine for Best Palm Products of 1999
DALLAS — February 21, 2000 — Tap Magazine, a prestigious publication for users of Palm OS devices, awarded Cutting Edge Software, Inc. with its annual Best Spreadsheet and Best Document Reader/Editor honors. Cutting Edge Software is the only software developer to win "best in class" in more than one category – and has done so two years in a row.
Cutting Edge Software's winning products included Quicksheet(TM), the top-selling spreadsheet application that fully integrates with Microsoft Excel, and SmartDoc, a document text editor that allows users to read and edit Microsoft Word documents or any text formatted file on their Palm computing device.
In naming Quicksheet as the top Palm OS spreadsheet software application for the second year in a row, Tap Magazine editors wrote, "The undisputed spreadsheet champ, Quicksheet gets better with every iteration. Its key benefit is its seamless integration with Microsoft Excel, which makes swapping sheets between Palm and PC a cakewalk. And the addition of a new Quickchart module gives you a graphical representation of your data – because a picture is worth a thousand words."
Tap Magazine's editors recognized SmartDoc as "the closest thing to a word processor the Palm has seen yet. SmartDoc 2.0 supplies a raft of features for reading your favorite Doc files (bookmarks, auto scrolling, find and replace, and more), but it also lets you edit those files or create new ones from scratch. If you have a modem, you can even upload Doc files via FTP – something no other Doc reader comes close to offering."
"It's such an honor to be held in such high regard by Tap Magazine, truly a pillar in the Palm Computing community," said Jeff Musa, president of Cutting Edge Software. "When Tap Magazine speaks, Palm users listen. These awards are great additions to our ever-growing trophy case."
