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 published within 18 months of the start of the analysis period across the three Gartner Digital Markets web properties: softwareadvice.com, capterra.com and getapp.com.
Inclusion in the Small Vendor or Enterprise Vendor FrontRunners graphics is based on vendor 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. 16 Powered by Methodology
