uTest Wins Judges’ Choice Honors at Under the Radar
As we mentioned previously in this space, uTest was recently chosen to present at the Under the Radar event in the heart of The Valley. With only 24 start-ups being handpicked from among hundreds to present at UTR, just being selected is
an honor. Their track record for finding future stars before they pop is beyond impressive.
So last Friday afternoon, in front of a crowd of 200+ start-up execs, VCs and members of the media, Doron took the stage to tell the uTest story — and to do it in six minutes or less. At an event that was focused almost entirely on cloud computing (infrastructure, management, apps, etc.), we knew our vision of crowdsourced software testing would be the exception and we wondered how it would be received amidst all the cloud talk.
And while I’m unabashedly biased, my initial reaction was that our story was popular within the room. Apparently I was right because, later that day, we learned that uTest had won the judges’ choice award in the “Applications” category. A high honor indeed, as our judges were such notables as John Foley from InformationWeek, Matthew Glotzbach from Google and Robin Vasan from Mayfield Fund.
The entire experience was positive — some great meetings with prospective customers and partners, good meetings with members of the media, and another feather in our cap as we rewrite the rules of what’s possible in the world of software testing.
Check out the six minute presentation for yourself and drop us a comment with your thoughts.
Congratulations uTest team ! When I came across the site first, I could not believe that this platform was open to anyone and everyone, be it a beginner or an expert or mid level tester. The thought is so simple yet extremely innovative. I am proud to be part uTest.
Thanks, Shital. We know that none of uTest’s success would be possible without the efforts of our community of high-quality testers. We’re grateful for the continued support… there is much, much more to come!
