Understanding the Magic Quadrant
“A Magic Quadrant provides a graphical competitive positioning of four types of technology providers, in markets where growth is high and provider differentiation is distinct.
Niche Players offer a compelling product, but their approach is more focused on a particular area within the close and consolidation process, or they cater to the needs of a specific set of controllers. For example, a Niche Player may focus on specific functionalities, such as tax compliance, or focus on partnerships with specific ERPs or only target existing customers of their adjacent products. These vendors tend to display limited advanced digital capabilities, such as AI, in their roadmap when compared to vendors in other quadrants.
