Through a unique combination of journalist and peer review, which included over 250 judges from the trade press, consulting, IT specialists and other knowledgeable but neutral experts, the Codie Awards recognize the industry's most innovative products and services. Neighborhood America's solution was selected as a finalist from more than 1,000 nominations submitted by more than 600 companies.

"Competition is tough this year and that makes selection as a Codie Finalist a real achievement," said Ken Wash, SIIA President. "All the companies on this year's list should feel justifiably proud of their recognition."

"We are honored to be recognized as a leading provider of enterprise social network solutions, enabling organizations to engage and interact with their consumers for the purpose of driving results," said Kim Patrick Kobza, President and CEO of Neighborhood America. "It is gratifying to see that our commitment to developing best-in-class solutions is being recognized by the industry."

Neighborhood America will advance to the next stage of the selection process, which will include additional evaluations and voting by SIIA members. Winners will be announced at the SIIA Gala event on May 20 in San Francisco, CA.
