Progress Announces Winners of the 2023 Sitefinity Website of the Year Awards

Now in its 12th year, the awards recognize the exceptional digital experiences Progress Sitefinity customers and partners have created

BURLINGTON, Mass., June 23, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Progress (Nasdaq: PRGS), the trusted provider of application development and infrastructure software, today announced the winners of the 2023 Progress® Sitefinity® Website of the Year Awards. For more than a decade, these awards have recognized customers and partners for the exceptional digital experiences they deliver to their customers and end users. The contest was open for all Sitefinity platform deployments that were launched or significantly upgraded in the past year.

The 2023 Sitefinity Website of the Year winners were selected in two phases. First, an internal Progress jury evaluated each nomination against six selection criteria—visual design, content, layout and navigation, sophistication, innovation and significance—and shortlisted the three highest-scoring websites per category. Second, after narrowing the field, voting was opened to the community at large.

With more than 2,000 votes cast, the results are as follows:

  • Associations, Government & Public Sector: Public Defender Service for the District of Columbia, implemented by Americaneagle.com
    It is the mission of the Public Defender Service for the District of Columbia (PDSDC) to provide and promote quality legal representation to adults and children. Powered by the Sitefinity platform, PDSDC’s new website has enabled it to pursue its mission of protecting society's interest in the fair administration of justice, as seen through increased site traffic and improved performance and content curation.

    One of Singapore’s leading institutions of higher learning with over 13,000 enrolled students, Ngee Ann Polytechnic has nine academic schools and a multisite implementation that serves diverse visitor segments and features a student portal. Its newly designed Sitefinity-powered website has made authoring and publishing content faster and easier.
  • Financial Services: Your Money Further, implemented by Americaneagle.com
    • YourMoneyFurther is the Credit Union National Association’s (CUNA) user-facing website, intended to increase awareness of credit unions as a personal finance solution.

  • Portal: Palmer Gas & Oil, implemented by SilverTech
    • Palmer Gas & Oil relies significantly on its customer and administration portals for everyday operations and needed an easy-to-use-and-manage digital solution with strong personalization capabilities to tailor customer experiences.

  • Technology: Altair, implemented by Springthrough
    Altair chose Sitefinity to replace a custom CMS that wasn’t user-friendly and lacked key capabilities.
