Vignette Receives Strong Positive Rating In Web Content Management Report From Leading Analyst Firm
AUSTIN, Texas (November 21, 2005) Vignette Corp. today announced that it has received a Strong Positive rating by Gartner, Inc. in its most recent MarketScope for Web Content Management, 2005.i Vignette was one of 16 vendors evaluated for the report and received the analyst firms highest possible ranking of Strong Positive. The piece of research is based on the growing adoption of Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solutions in the Fortune 1000 and Gartners belief that 80 percent of enterprises will augment ECM systems with additional leading-edge Web Content Management (WCM) capabilities through 2007.
Gartner considers companies receiving a Strong Positive rating to be solid providers of strategic products, services or solutions and recommends that existing customers continue investments while potential customers consider the vendor as a strong strategic choice.
Vignettes global leadership in Enterprise Content Management and its crucial Web Content Management heritage continues to fuel the companys momentum as we enter 2006, said Vignette Chief Marketing Officer Larry Warnock. Gartners Strong Positive rating confirms Vignettes position in the industry and reflects the trust and confidence shown in Vignette by our remarkable customer base, which includes many of the worlds most powerful brands.
The report notes that some very large and successful vendors with high overall ECM functionality have only moderate WCM performance. Not surprisingly, ECM vendors that started life on the Web continue to lead in WCM capability. Indeed, some of these do better than some big ECM names, and a best-of-breed approach may be required for some ECM users who have high-end WCM needs.
