Vendor Landscape Methodology: Overview Info-Tech’s Vendor Landscapes are research materials that review a particular IT market space, evaluating the strengths and abilities of both the products available in that space as well as the vendors of those products. These materials are created by a team of dedicated analysts operating under the direction of a senior subject matter expert over the period of six weeks. Evaluations weigh selected vendors and their products (collectively “solutions”) on the following eight criteria to determine overall standing: • Features: The presence of advanced and market-differentiating capabilities. • Usability: The intuitiveness, power, and integrated nature of administrative consoles and client software components. • Affordability: The three-year total cost of ownership of the solution. • Architecture: The degree of integration with the vendor’s other tools, flexibility of deployment, and breadth of platform applicability. • Viability: The stability of the company as measured by its history in the market, the size of its client base, and its financial performance. • Strategy: The commitment to both the market-space as well as to the various sized clients (small, mid-sized and enterprise clients). • Reach: The ability of the vendor to support its products on a global scale. • Channel: The measure of the size of the vendor’s channel partner program as well as any channel strengthening strategies. Evaluated solutions are plotted on a standard two by two matrix: • Champions: Both the product and the vendor receive scores that are above the average score for the evaluated group. • Innovators: The product receives a score that is above the average score for the evaluated group, but the vendor receives a score that is below the average score for the evaluated group. • Market Pillars: The product receives a score that is below the average score for the evaluated group, but the vendor receives a score that is above the average score for the evaluated group. • Emerging Players: Both the product and the vendor receive scores that are below the average score for the evaluated group. Info-Tech’s Vendor Landscapes are researched and produced according to a strictly adhered to process that includes the following steps: • Vendor/product selection • Information gathering • Vendor/product scoring • Information presentation • Fact checking • Publication This document outlines how each of these steps is conducted.
