Singularity positioned in Gartner's 2006 Magic Quadrant

14 July 2006

Gartner Inc., the leading research and analyst firm, has positioned Singularity in their just-published Magic Quadrant for Business Process Management Suites 2006. (Gartner, Janelle B. Hill and Jim Sinur, June 28, 2006). Gartner evaluated over 150 vendors during the preparation of the report, with 17 being placed in the Magic Quadrant.

In late 2005, Gartner updated its market definition from the BPM Pure-Play Market to what they refer to as the second generation of BPM-enabling technologies that have been packaged into a suite rather than sold as independent, best-of-breed tools. Their new market is called BPM Suites (BPMS) and reflects this shift. With this new categorisation, Gartner greatly increased the range of vendors considered for inclusion. Gartner positioned those vendors selected based on criteria including revenue, feature support and geographic reach.

The evaluation process for the Magic Quadrant included a series of briefings to senior Gartner analysts beginning late last year and running through to the end of May this year; reference calls to customers; and online product demos.

"We are delighted to be included in the BPMS Magic Quadrant", said Dermot McCauley, Director of Strategy and Marketing at Singularity. "We believe our inclusion reflects the seriousness with which we are viewed by the world's leading technology analyst house".
