Red Herring’s Top 100 North America list has become a mark of distinction for identifying promising new companies and entrepreneurs.

This recognition is a validation of our efforts to change the way businesses operate by making collaboration easier and more efficient.”

We believe Central Desktop embodies the vision, drive and innovation that define a successful entrepreneurial venture. Central Desktop should be proud of its accomplishment, as the competition was very strong.”
