FedTech Review Guidelines

The FedTech Review

Does it work for IT? That’s the top question that FedTech’s reviewers strive to answer. Each of our reviewers works in the IT industry and puts each product that we review to the test.

As a magazine focused on the needs of the IT practitioner, our reviews focus on determining whether a given product works for IT professionals in a business setting. We are focused strictly on office technologies, not those geared toward consumers.

  • Overview: What is this product intended to do?
  • End-User Advantage: Most products or technologies touch the end user in some manner. What problem will this product or technology solve for end users?
  • Why it works for IT: Our readers are IT practitioners — systems administrators, network administrators, IT managers, project managers, CTOs and CIOs — making it imperative that we spell out the features that aid them in doing their jobs better.
  • Disadvantages: Believe it or not, even the best products contain bugs or poor graphical user interfaces or require add-on services that increase cost and maintenance overhead. Consider this part of the review a heads-up on what a user will want to watch out for.

If I have a product, how do I get FedTech to review it?

The best way to get a product reviewed is to pitch it, via e-mail. Submit review suggestions here.

No guarantees are made concerning the outcome of the reviews. We restrict our reviews to products sold by CDW. To see if your product applies, search www.cdw.com. The views expressed in FedTech magazine and on its Web site are those of the individual authors and editors and not necessarily CDW Corp.
