The minimum score cutoff to be included in the FrontRunners graphic varies by category, depending on the range of scores in each category.

he FrontRunners methodology The User Recommended score is Tassesses and calculates a an overall weighted average of score for products on two primary scores including: dimensions: Usability on the x-axis • End-user ratings of one to five and User Recommended on the stars on how valuable users y-axis. consider the product to be relative to its price. The Usability score is a weighted average of user ratings including: • End-user ratings of one to five stars on how likely they are • End-user ratings of one to five to recommend the product to stars on the product’s ease of others. use. There are up to two FrontRunners • End-user ratings of one to graphics for each market, one Small five stars on the product’s functionality. Vendor and one Enterprise Vendor graphic. The Small Vendor graphic highlights qualifiers from smaller (by employee size) vendors, while 14 Methodology Basics the Enterprise Vendor graphic displays qualifiers for larger (by employee size) vendors.
Markets are defined by a core set of functionality, and to be eligible for FrontRunners, products must offer that core set of functionality. Core functionality required is determined by our research analysts, who provide coverage for and have familiarity with products in that market. Additionally, a product must have at least 20 unique user-submitted product reviews across the three Gartner Digital Markets web properties: softwareadvice.com, capterra.com and getapp.com, which must have been published within 18 months of start of the analysis period.
Inclusion in the Small Vendor or Enterprise Vendor FrontRunners graphic is based on the vendor’s employee count. Vendors eligible for the Enterprise Vendor graphic must have more than the median employee count for all vendors in the market, or 100 employees—whichever is greater. Vendors whose employee counts do not meet either of those thresholds qualify for the Small Vendor graphic.
1 In the event fewer than 10 products qualify for either a Small Vendors or Enterprise Vendors FrontRunners graphic, the vendors that do qualify will be combined into a single graphic. 15 Powered by Methodology
