Episerver Positioned as a Challenger in Gartner’s 2015 Magic Quadrant for Horizontal Portals
Evaluation Based on Ability to Execute, Completeness of Vision
Episerver™, a leading provider of digital marketing and digital commerce solutions, today announced it has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the Challengers quadrant in the 2015 report entitled, “Magic Quadrant for Horizontal Portals.”1 The criteria used by Gartner to evaluate companies selected for the Magic Quadrant evaluation included the ability to execute and completeness of vision.
The research by Gartner cites that, “digital business requires organizations to improve customer, employee, and partner engagement and satisfaction in the midst of an explosion of information, devices, and apps. Portal offerings must step up to escalating demands.”
Episerver’s portal offering is part of its Episerver Digital Experience Cloud™ solution which combines content, commerce and multi-channel marketing in a single platform to help businesses provide standout digital experiences.
“Episerver is fully focused on helping organizations with their digital transformation initiatives, and our approach to portal solutions is to provide an empowering business-to-business (B2B), and business-to-employee (B2E) platform that inspires people to engage, collaborate and access relevant information quickly,” said James Norwood, Executive Vice President of Strategy and CMO of Episerver. “We believe that recognition by Gartner as a Challenger in the Magic Quadrant for Horizontal Portals is in-line with our continued efforts to challenge the status quo by delivering advanced web content management, digital marketing, digital commerce, and extensive connectivity, all on a single platform in the Cloud.”
