Doesn't appear to meet notability criteria under WP:GNG or WP:NSOFT. The cited sources after the first one are either self-posted or external links to other products that should be in the article or incidental mentions. —Largo Plazo (talk) 16:17, 14 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - GNG states that "a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." I looked at the current sources:
  1. http://seriousstartups.com/2014/08/10/crashing-trade-show-saved-helprace/ - about Gregory Koldirkaev, not the product.
  2. http://blog.capterra.com/help-desk-software-for-small-business-one-size-doesnt-fit/ compares several products.
  3. http://startup88.com/startups/2014/09/09/helprace-customer-service-software/8143 Paid placement not independent of subject.
  4. http://prmac.com/release-id-68768.htm Paid placement not independent of subject.
  5. http://www.prleap.com/pr/226609/helprace-leads-the-way-to-customer-excellence Paid placement not independent of subject.
  6. http://sphinxsearch.com/info/powered/ Doesn't mention the product.
  7. http://wiki.apache.org/solr/PublicServers Trivial mention. It's a wiki about Solr.
  8. http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/PoweredBy Same as above.
  9. http://www.kyivpost.com/content/business/ukrainian-startups-take-all-19-awards-at-idcee-2014-367961.html trivial mention: "runners-up were help desk software provider Helprace"
I suspect that the article contains the best available resources. Fails GNG. Walter Görlitz (talk) 15:18, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
