SEATTLE, WA -- 11/24/09 --
Hubspan, Inc. (http://www.hubspan.com/), a
leading provider of business integration solutions, today announced it has
been named by Gartner to the "Visionaries" quadrant of the Magic Quadrant for Integration Service Providers.(1) The
Gartner Magic Quadrant positions vendors within a particular segment based
on completeness of vision and their ability to execute on that vision.
The Magic Quadrant has 15 weighted criteria that plot vendors, like
Hubspan, based on their relative strengths in the market, including overall
viability, customer experience, market responsiveness and track record and
innovation.
The report also noted that the B2B integration market has shown strong
innovation and maturity, stating: "The bar is raised: Expanding
globalization, larger communities, e-invoicing, service oriented
architecture, more-sophisticated processes, cloud computing and improved
service-level agreements are driving integration service providers to new
levels of maturity."
The Gartner analysts' forecast continued strong demand for integration
services, estimating that companies worldwide spent more than $1.5 billion
on integration as a service and B2B integration outsourcing and expect
organizations to purchase and consume much more integration services in the
next five years.
"We appreciate Gartner's expanding view of the business integration market,
as we are also seeing strong demand for integration services as companies
deal with growing internal and external communities, complex business
processes, and the need to show fast business value with IT investments,"
said Trisha Gross, president and CEO at Hubspan. "Hubspan's cloud-based
platform delivered as a managed service provides cost-effective, secure and
reliable integration that easily scales up or down."
