• The Gartner Magic Quadrant positions vendors within a particular market segment based on their completeness of vision and their ability to execute on that vision.
• According to Gartner, "Vendors in the Leaders quadrant have strong results and delivery capabilities and will continue to have them. They typically possess a large, satisfied customer base (relative to the size of the market) and enjoy high visibility in the market.
