About
the Gartner Magic Quadrant
The Magic Quadrant is copyrighted July 2003 by Gartner,
Inc. and is reused with permission, which permission
should not be deemed to be an endorsement of any company
or product depicted in the quadrant. The Magic Quadrant
is Gartner, Inc.'s opinion and is an analytical representation
of a marketplace at and for a specific time period.
It measures vendors against Gartner defined criteria
for a marketplace. The positioning of vendors within
a Magic Quadrant is based on the complex interplay
of many factors. Gartner does not advise enterprises
to select only those firms in the "Leaders"
quadrant. In some situations, firms in the Visionary,
Challenger, or Niche Player quadrants may be the right
matches for an enterprise's requirements. Well-informed
vendor selection decisions should rely on more than
a Magic Quadrant. Gartner research is intended to
be one of many information sources including other
published information and direct analyst interaction.
Gartner, Inc. expressly disclaims all warranties,
express or implied, of fitness of this research for
a particular purpose.
