Evaluation Based on Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute
ATLANTA, GA - December 1, 2009 - Liaison Technologies, a global provider of integration and data management services and solutions, today announced it has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the leaders quadrant in the 'Magic Quadrant for Integration Service Providers' report.(1) Recently published by Gartner, Inc., a leading worldwide research and advisory firm, the report evaluated 17 vendors in the integration service provider market based on their ability to execute and completeness of vision.
According to Gartner, “The primary focus of this Magic Quadrant is on integration services applied to B2B integration projects. However, as the barriers between internal application-to-application (A2A) and B2B integration projects quickly fade, we are seeing more interest from IT users in — and more service offerings from IT providers that address — both A2A and B2B integration projects…these developments are harbingers of a future in which service providers more regularly address IT projects that combine A2A and B2B integration.”
"In my opinion, the Gartner Magic Quadrant report is a first-rate guide for companies looking for a proven integration services provider; its deep and comprehensive assessment lends invaluable insight to business-critical integration decisions," said Bob Renner, CEO of Liaison. "We believe that Liaison’s placement in the leaders quadrant recognizes our differentiated capabilities including our domain expertise and Contivo mapping technology, as well as our vision for the convergence of B2B and A2A integration services."
Liaison’s services and solutions portfolio includes master data management (MDM), business-to-business and enterprise application integration project outsourcing, managed services, business process consulting services, a robust service oriented architecture-based network platform, and a portable data transformation solution. With a comprehensive portfolio of services, software experience and practitioner expertise, Liaison tailors its solutions to exactly fit its client needs.
