Tips on Gartner’s Magic quadrant (MQ) vs Critical Capabilities Matrix in Access Management

2
Critical Capabilities Matrix
  1. Critical Capabilities matrix rather than MQ should be looked upon first if you are shortlisting a technology.
  2. MQ vendors may not be great in certain areas (Example: Geography like Asia-Pacific, less than 5000 employees etc)
  3. Legacy application coverage is a differentiator.
  4. Banking & Govt. are finally just about beginning to adopt cloud single sign-on & Access Management.
  5. MQ is almost old by the time it is published. It takes 6 – 9 months to prepare it, relative position of technology providers changes by then, sometimes quite significantly.

  1. Very well said Binod, In fact most of the customers are already doing the investigations on Critical Capabilities before their decisions, rather just relying on MQ.

    Most of the customers do not want to end up paying very high for a solution by MQ leaders, sometimes they end up staying on partial solutions-not complete solutions, hence they take a route of contracting with other vendors for some additional solutions for some of their legacy applications, or some thik client applications etc.

    Appreciate your inputs and thoughts…
    Awaiting more such updates!!!
