The award is given each year to\u00a0a handful of Mac products that stand out for their impressive examples of quality, value, and\u00a0innovation.\u00a0The MacWorld Editor\u2019s Choice Awards is one of the most prestigious awards in the industry.<\/p>\n<p>Out of the hundreds of Mac apps introduced in 2012, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.netspotapp.com\">NetSpot 2<\/a> was one of only eight software applications chosen.

It determines the rough location of your base stations, and maps out the strong\u00a0and weak points of Wi-Fi coverage in a building. You can then use the information to adjust your\u00a0base stations accordingly, or to figure out where to put Wi-Fi expanders. Even though NetSpot\u00a0is a networking utility, it uses friendly visual cues to help you understand the collected data. Best\u00a0of all, NetSpot is a free tool.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.netspotapp.com\">NetSpot 2<\/a> brings Mac users an unprecedented set of network survey tools, giving them the<br \/>\npower to visualize their networks, identify areas of weakness and quickly correct problems. The\u00a0<a href=\"\/netspotpro.html\">PRO edition<\/a> gives network administrators even more advanced features, including multi-floor\u00a0scanning, active scanning, the ability to scan hidden networks, and automated troubleshooting.\u00a0No other Mac software \u2013 free or paid \u2013 provides such a comprehensive set of network scanning\u00a0tools.<br \/>\n<div class=\"media post-download\">\r\n<div class=\"media-left media-middle\"><i class=\"box-40x40 icons icon-win-xs  \"><\/i><\/div> <div class=\"media-body media-middle\">NetSpot <a href=\"https:\/\/www.netspotapp.com\/netspot-windows.html\">Wi-Fi booster for Windows<\/a> is available<\/div>\r\n<\/div><\/p>\n<div style=\"padding-bottom:0px; padding-top:0px;\" class=\"hupso-share-buttons\"><!-- Hupso Share Buttons - https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/ --><a class=\"hupso_counters\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/\"><img src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/buttons\/dot.png\" style=\"border:0px; padding-top:2px; float:left;\" alt=\"Share Button\"\/><\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\">var hupso_services_c=new Array(\"twitter\",\"facebook_like\",\"google\");var hupso_counters_lang = \"en_US\";var hupso_image_folder_url = \"\";var hupso_twitter_via=\"netspotapp\";var hupso_url_c=\"\";var hupso_title_c=\"NetSpot%20Wins%202012%20MacWorld%20Editors%E2%80%99%20Choice%20Award\";<\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/js\/counters.js\"><\/script><!-- Hupso Share Buttons --><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are here today to share this great news with our users and visitors!
