Synology, a leading provider of IT management and data storage solutions, has once again been recognized for its excellence in the industry. The company has won PCMag’s annual Readers’ Choice award for Home Network Attached Storage (NAS) and Business Choice awards for both Home Office NAS and IT Manager’s Choice. This is the 12th consecutive win for Synology in the Readers’ Choice category and the ninth consecutive win in the Business Choice category for Home Office NAS.

Will Davis, the director of business development at Synology, expressed his excitement about the recognition, stating, “We are thrilled that PCMag readers and business users have once again given us such exemplary ratings. With data growing at an exponential rate, businesses and home-users alike need storage solutions that they can trust. These wins show us that users have confidence in our products to manage and protect their data.”

PCMag conducts annual surveys among its readers and business users to determine the top brands in various categories. The evaluation criteria include overall satisfaction, set up, value, tech support, reliability, ease of use, and likelihood to recommend, among others.

In the Readers’ Choice category, Synology has dominated the NAS Devices division for 12 consecutive years. With an impressive 9.2 out of 10 rating for overall satisfaction and a 9.3 rating for likelihood to recommend, Synology outperformed its competitors in these categories.

For the Business Choice awards, Synology emerged as the winner in two separate divisions: Home-Office NAS and IT Manager’s Choice.

NAS: Network Attached Storage (NAS) is a specialized storage device or server that provides centralized data storage and access over a network, usually using Ethernet connections. NAS systems are designed to offer a convenient and efficient way to store and share files among multiple users or devices within a home or office environment. Unlike traditional storage solutions, NAS devices operate independently and have their own operating systems and management interfaces. They are characterized by easy setup and configuration, making them accessible even to users with limited technical expertise. NAS devices can offer various features, including data redundancy through RAID configurations, remote access over the internet, automatic backup, media streaming, and even application hosting in some advanced models. As a versatile and user-friendly storage solution, NAS has become a popular choice for both personal and small business use.
