Network World

Network World is the premier source of objective, authoritative reviews in the network market. We produce weekly reviews of enterprise scope, with a mix of comparative reviews of competing products and timely reviews of products new to the market. Our strategy is to put ourselves in our readers' place - that of a network manager - and evaluate products the way readers would themselves if they only had the time.

We concentrate on products of enterprise scope: network management software, switches of various types, file and application servers, remote access servers, security products, and tools related to the Internet and World Wide Web.

That's a lot of ground to cover, but we have a lot of help in the form of the Network World Lab Alliance.

The Network World Lab Alliance comprises many of the premier reviewers in the network industry. Each brings to bear years of experience testing products in his area of expertise. We leverage their knowledge and work with them to construct realistic test scenarios; the results of which help readers make more informed buying decisions.

Maybe you can help us in that effort. We're always looking to expand our roster of Lab Alliance experts. We're looking for consultants, universities or corporate sites that are capable of testing products of enterprise scope in a test lab that emulates an enterprise environment. Let's put our resources together. Please contact Contact Neal Weinberg at nweinberg@nww.com or (508) 766-5447.
