Desmond, editor of Software Magazine and Softwaremag.com. “The Software 500 helps CIOs, senior IT managers, and IT staff research and create the short list of business partners. It is a quick reference of vendor viability. And the online version, to be posted soon at http://www.softwaremag.com, is searchable by category, making it what we call the online catalog to enterprise software.” The Software 500 is a revenue-based ranking of the world’s largest software and services suppliers, targeting medium to large enterprises, their IT professionals, software developers, and business managers involved in software and services purchasing. “With the demand for high-end software development services on the rise, we have invested heavily in ensuring that our engineers have the education levels and expertise required to help our organization remain competitive in the global marketplace,” said Dmitry Loschinin, president and CEO of Luxoft. “We pride ourselves on our ability to be innovative and remain attuned to the changing needs of our customers.

More than 100 companies are on the list in 2011 for the first time, a reflection of the dynamic nature of the industry. The ranking is based on total worldwide software and services revenue for 2010.

Suppliers are not ranked on their total corporate revenue, since many have other lines of business, such as hardware.
