With the newly created Automation App Award, the trade journal elektrotechnik will be honoring the best automation apps for the first time at SPS/IPC/Drives 2012. Interested parties can still apply until 21.09.2012.
The Automation App Award will be presented in three categories: Technology Apps, Catalog Apps and Corporate Apps. Any company can apply for the award with one or more submissions - even in different categories - of its own app. The prerequisite is that the submitted app is based on either the "Android" or "iOS" operating system and is available for download in the respective app store (Google play, Apple App Store). Whether it is free or paid for is irrelevant.
The evaluation is based on three criteria: Originality of the idea behind the app, usability for the user and utility value (technology category) or information content (catalog and corporate). The submissions are judged by a panel of experts, an online vote on elektrotechnik.de and user ratings in the app store. The winner is the app with the best overall result
result from all three equally weighted partial results.
Apply now! The closing date for entries is September 21, 2012.
