The Mobile Star Awards, now in their 11th year, highlight "best of" entries in categories including mobile apps, enterprise mobile solutions, enterprise success stories, mobile marketing and more. SlideShark was named a "Superstar" – the highest ranking – in the "Enterprise Solutions: Collaboration and Presentation" category. Winners were chosen by the nearly 10,000 subscribers to MobileVillage's free "Go Mobile™" e-newsletter, which delivers top mobile technology stories.
"The Mobile Star Awards recognize exciting products and companies that are the 'stars to watch' and that are reshaping their industries," said Gary Thayer, Mobile Star Awards director.

In addition to having powerful presentation features, SlideShark and the business-oriented version, SlideShark Team Edition, also let users distribute, track and manage PowerPoint content in the cloud. Within the last year, the app has achieved significant milestones including:
- More than two downloads per minute, 24x7.
- A continuous ranking among the top "Productivity Apps" in Apple's App Store.
- More than a dozen industry awards, recognizing SlideShark's role in enhancing sales force and enterprise-wide productivity.
