-- Jive, the Social Business Software leader, today announced that Gartner,
Inc. positioned Jive in the Leaders Quadrant of its 2009 report "Magic
Quadrant for Social Software in the Workplace." (1) Gartner positions
vendors in the "Leaders" quadrant based on completeness of vision and
their ability to execute on that vision.

used social software and collaboration offerings. Their leadership is
being established through an early recognition of user needs in this
market, their overall market presence, and their success in delivering
user-friendly and solution focussed suites with broad capabilities."

software, and popular social applications, Jive Social Business Software
enables businesses to connect and capitalize on the intellectual and
creative content of employee and customer conversations.
