Understanding the Gartner Magic Quadrant
The Gartner Magic Quadrant is a research methodology used to evaluate and analyze technology markets, vendors, and products. The Magic Quadrant is a visual representation of the market, divided into four quadrants: Leaders, Challengers, Visionaries, and Niche Players. Each vendor is positioned in the quadrant that best represents their ability to execute their capabilities and showcase their completeness of vision in the market.
In the context of CSPM – or Cloud Workload Protection Platform (CWPP), as they sometimes go hand in hand – the Magic Quadrant assesses the various vendors that offer CSPM solutions based on their capabilities and performance in the market. Gartner evaluates each vendor based on a variety of criteria, including product features and functionality, vendor strategy, customer experience, and market presence.
