• Delete as I still confirm my PROD because although the user removed the trivial award, the honesty is that the article overall is simply not substantial or significant enough for accepting notability. SwisterTwister talk 18:18, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Sorry, I'm new to this, so apologies if the formatting of this response is incorrect. I'm just curious why the award that was previously mentioned was described as "trivial." Frost & Sullivan Award (or Frost and Sullivan Award) is cited on, by my count, 50+ other Wikipedia entries, including: Lockheed Martin A2100, Genesys, West Corporation, Keysight, Metaswitch, Sartorius_AG. Frost & Sullivan is also a notable enough company to have been deemed worthy enough to have it's own entry on Wikipedia. Would award from a company with the reputation of Frost & Sullivan not then be noteworthy, and positively impact the notability of a company? Redbridge talk 03:31, 17 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Additionally, MOZ ranks Frost & Sullivan as having an extremely high page and domain authority: https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/links?site=http%3A%2F%2Fww2.frost.com%2F&filter=&source=external&target=page&group=0&page=1&sort=page_authority&anchor_id=&anchor_type=&anchor_text=&from_site= Redbridge talk 18:43, 21 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete -- an unremarkable software company going about it's business. Tone is advertorial so WP:PROMO applies. Frost & Sullivan Award are low-reputation industry awards; they are generally pay-per-play in the sense that the company needs to pay for the "right" to publicize the award. Not useful besides putting it on a company website. K.e.coffman (talk) 05:17, 23 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete -- Fair enough. I concur with K.e.coffman. Redbridge13 talk 14:37, 23 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
