The Windows IT Pro Editors’ Best and Community Choice Awards combines two awards into one by allowing not only the editors and contributors of the publication to evaluate and vote on each category, but also allowing its readers to participate. Each category has the top three Editors’ Best products and adjacent is the Community Choice winners. Regardless of whether the winners were picked by editors or readers, these awards recognize products and services that are considered the best of the best in each of the categories.

“Odyssey Software is dedicated to developing innovative enterprise mobility products,” said Mark Gentile, president and CEO of Odyssey Software. “With the iPhone 3GS and BlackBerry Bold also selected in this category, receiving this recognition validates our dedication to delivering industry leading remote and mobile device management products which meet the needs of our customers and partners.”

Odyssey Software’s flagship product, Athena, is a unique product designed to directly integrate into the native infrastructure of the Configuration Manager 2007 console.  Athena does not require additional server-side components or consoles, unlike all other device management products, which require their own proprietary server, console and database infrastructure.  Contrary to traditional management offerings, Athena is specifically architected to be flexible, modular and seamless to integrate.
