What is Gartner Magic Quadrant?
Gartner Magic Quadrant is used as a first step to understanding the technology providers you might consider for a specific investment opportunity - widely regarded as the go-to guide for CIOs planning to outsource mobility management. Using methodological research, qualitative data analyses and actionable advice, depicts a market of leading MMS technology providers using a two-dimensional matrix that evaluates vendors based on their Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute.
The Gartner Magic Quadrant provides graphical competitive positioning, dividing companies into four quadrants: Leaders, Challengers, Visionaries and Niche Players:
- Leaders execute well against their current vision and are well positioned for tomorrow.
- Visionaries understand where the market is going or have a vision for changing market rules.
- Niche Players focus successfully on a small segment.
- Challengers execute well today or may dominate a large segment.
The report provides an in-depth review of the market, vendor strengths and cautions, inclusion and exclusion criteria, evaluation criteria and a market overview.
