Synology® Announces Winners of DSM 5.1 Beta Reward Program

Taipei, Taiwan—November 17, 2014—Synology® Inc. today announced the winners of the DSM 5.1 beta reward program, an event inviting DiskStation and RackStation users to participate in beta testing and provide feedback to collectively create the best NAS experience.

The DSM 5.1 beta Reward Program successfully generated a great amount of valuable feedback. Among the participants, three winners are awarded for their exceptional dedication to helping DSM 5.1 achieve excellence. With excitement, the winners shared about their experience with beta testing and how Synology continues to benefit their data management.

C. Seyb from Germany commented, “I have been using Synology NAS for nearly 10 years without experiencing any problems. This time I entered the DSM 5.1 Beta program to set up my own CardDAV and CalDAV servers, and I found the Synology team very responsive and their support in fixing issues really outstanding. My experience with Synology NAS has been really great and I would love to recommend it to everyone.”

B. Stolk from the Netherlands expressed, “I have been very happy with my Synology DiskStation since I purchased it 4 years ago. Synology has made it very easy to work on the go, I never have to think which files to bring along when I’m going to a customer. I’m really impressed by the continuous work of Synology to add even more useful and interesting functionality and the way they listen to their customers’ needs. I know my suggestions and remarks are taken seriously by the Support team and worked on. I’m glad I could participate in the DSM 5.1 beta testing and contribute to the final release. With a Synology NAS, you have a product that will only improve over time.”

S. Bos from France indicated, “Since I bought my Synology NAS, I’ve been impressed both by the unquestionable quality of the hardware and the DSM ability to keep way ahead of the competition, not only by enriching its features at a sustained pace, but also by providing an intuitive user experience on every screen. It probably comes from the way Synology pays attention to its customers’ need and feedback, notably through its beta programs.”
