"On the eve of the start of the III All-Russian championship for working with P7 office tables, we expect to at least repeat the success of previous seasons. Practice confirms that such intellectual competitions among representatives of Russian companies really motivate users to learn more about the functionality of domestic software, improve their level of professionalism and digital literacy. In addition, for us as a developer, this is an invaluable source of feedback, especially from those who use our software to almost the maximum of its capabilities," commented Elena Bazhei, head of communications with government agencies at R7.

"The history of this championship began several years ago with an internal competition at Gazprom Neft. Today, the P7 Office tabular Editor championship is an all—Russian level: hundreds of teams and thousands of participants. For us, supporting this event is a logical continuation of the strategy for the development of Russian software. We systematically implement domestic solutions, test them, give feedback to developers and refine products with them. But without active users, without their involvement, this process is impossible. The championship is just the kind of environment where the professional community grows, and developers receive invaluable feedback. We see how the level of participants is growing from year to year, tasks are becoming more complicated, and new approaches are emerging. This means that Russian solutions are becoming a full-fledged tool for solving the most complex business problems. I wish the participants a fair fight, new discoveries and, of course, victory," said Anton Dumin, CIO of Gazprom Neft.
