I prodded it with the following rationale: "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (companies) requirement. " It was deprodded by the creator, who expanded the article, but I still have concerns. The refs primarily mention the company in passing, and come from low visibility trade publications (in particular, Marketing Weekly News - a trade publication of problematic notability itself), blogs, and such (don't be mislead by the citations to Forbes - they are from the Forbes blog hosting service). One review in PCWorld is not enough to make its product pass WP:NSOFT. The company did win Stevie Awards, but again, is this an award that grants auto-notability? Let's discuss.

- Strong Keep - not every source in the article is great, but there are enough good ones to establish notability under the GNG. Hundreds more sources exist in news stories and books exist. Really its not remotely close, but if there was any doubt this professional review by PC Magazine would seal it - PC Magazine does not write multi-page reviews of non-notable software. Pinging @Ctg4Rahat: who accepted this at AfC for input. --ThaddeusB (talk) 22:05, 2 April 2015 (UTC)

- Keep The in-depth review in PC Magazine is enough to convince me. CorporateM (Talk) 02:39, 4 April 2015 (UTC)
- Strong Keep - I completely agree with ThaddeusB and CorporateM's points, there are enough good sources to establish notability.Kavdiamanju (talk) 16:10, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
