"Leaders have the highest combined measures of an ability to execute and a completeness of vision," according to the Gartner report authored by Carolyn DiCenzo and Kenneth Chin. "They have the most comprehensive and most scalable products. They have a proven track record of financial performance and established market presence. In terms of vision, they are perceived as thought leaders, with well-articulated plans for ease of use, how to address scalability and product breadth. For vendors to have long-term success, they must plan to address the expanded market requirements for archive management, personal store migration, ease of use and deployment, and archive recovery."
"For the past 10 years the archiving market has continually evolved, but Symantec Enterprise Vault's reliability and technology advancements remain constant," said Matt Kixmoeller, vice president of product management, Symantec Information Management Group. "We believe Symantec's position in the Leaders quadrant by Gartner validates our long-standing dedication to delivering an innovative solution that allows customers to manage and discover unstructured data with ease and confidence."
