Gartner's Magic Quadrant is a graphical representation of a marketplace at and for a specific time period. It depicts Gartner's analysis of how certain vendors measure against criteria for that marketplace, as defined by Gartner. Gartner does not endorse any vendor, product or service depicted in the Magic Quadrant, and does not advise technology users to select only those vendors placed in the "Leaders" quadrant. Gartner Magic Quadrant is intended solely as a research tool.This is
very influential when IT management evaluates potential vendors and considers technology purchasing decisions
According to Gartner, vendors listed as Leaders are doing well and have great prospects for the future. They have a long-term vision for high-availability services, coupled with service offerings, expertise and methodologies to fulfill that vision.
