As an existing QNAP user, I don't know how any QNAP NAS's can be seriously considered for any awards. They entice buyers with fancy options, but are not interested in developing applications users need.
SVN (Subversion Source Control) is the most popular and source control software in use, yet QNAP have been promising a proper SVN-server application since 2009, and still not delivered! How can users take them seriously - they're obviously not interested in developing applications the community needs, only the minimum needed to trick buyers into purchasing and evaluators to award prizes. They claim you can install SVN by an outdated method - which is very risky and outdated by a few years, and in my experience does not work at all.
They have a GIT client, so can claim they "have" source control applications.
Their marketing department needs to kick the development team into gear.
