Seeburger Inc. has been named to the Leaders category in the new Gartner Inc. Magic Quadrant analysis of business-to-business gateway providers.
Seeburgers Business Integration Server and associated products are used by more than 7,500 companies around the world to automate trading relationships throughout the supply chain, offering a single integrated and highly scalable global platform with automated workflow, advanced message tracking, and the ability to integrate 100% of an organizations trading partners including those that still do business on paper.
The new Gartner report, titled Magic Quadrant for B2B Gateway Providers, positions 14 B2B gateway vendors in the quadrant based on criteria including ability to execute, which includes overall viability, sales execution/pricing, market responsiveness and track record, marketing execution, customer experience and operations.
Vendors earning a position in the Leaders quadrant are likely to have high revenue and commitment to the market, high market share and installed bases, and products that are of interest to large audiences. In addition, leaders have demonstrated domain expertise and presented compelling messages that have penetrated the market (intentionally or unintentionally), according to the report.
Most of the business-to-business (B2B) gateway software solutions rated in this Magic Quadrant have matured to the point where they can support a wide range of B2B projects; nevertheless, areas of substantial product functional differentiation remain, including overall product maturity, scalability, service-oriented architecture (SOA) service enablement, architectural coherence and community management, the report noted. Vendors also differ substantially in terms of price/value, market understanding, market share, industry domain expertise, international strategies, global sales and support, and last but not least customer experience.
Seeburger has dedicated itself exclusively to business-to-business integration for more than two decades. That is clearly reflected in the maturity of our platform and our wide market adoption, and we believe it contributed significantly to our placement in the Leaders Quadrant in this new Magic Quadrant report, said Bill Reeves, VP Strategy and Marketing of SEEBURGER US. Organisations that are replacing their legacy EDI/B2B platforms or adopting B2B gateways for the first time can learn a lot from reading Gartners objective evaluation of the various solutions on the market.
