# G2 Best Software Awards 2026: category-specific ranks for software companies and products

## Recorded results

Hootsuite is recorded at Rank #1 in Best Software Products, while Salesforce has Rank #1 in Best Global Software Companies. Canva has Rank #1 in Best APAC Software Companies, BrowserStack has Rank #4 in that category and n8n has Rank #2 in Fastest-Growing Products. [1](#source-1) [2](#source-2)

## Reading the recognition

The repeated first-place labels make the category names essential. Each position describes the particular list named in its record. Combining them into one overall software-company leaderboard would introduce a comparison that the separate categories do not support. Product-list positions also should not be relabelled as company-list positions.

## Programme and coverage

G2 is listed as the organizer of a Review-based programme with Global scope. That classification provides context, while the cited result source carries the specific ranking evidence. Readers comparing products should retain the edition year and list title alongside the numerical position. [1](#source-1)
