Stellent Listed in "Leaders" Quadrant in ECM Magic Quadrant Report from Top Industry Analyst Firm
Stellent, Inc. , provider of content management solutions, announced today it was listed in the "leaders” quadrant in Gartner, Inc.’s "Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Content Management (ECM), 2005” 1 report. Gartner (NYSE: IT) is the leading provider of research and analysis on the global information technology industry. This report is Gartner’s second edition of the Enterprise Content Management Magic Quadrant.
According to the report, "leaders have the highest combined scores for their ability to execute and completeness of vision. They’re currently doing well and are prepared for the future with a clearly articulated vision. In the context of content management, they have strong channel partners, a presence in multiple regions, consistent financial performance, broad platform support and good customer support. In addition, they dominate in one or more technology or vertical markets. Leaders can deliver a comprehensive ECM suite by having all six core components and proven enterprise scalability.” Gartner defines the six core ECM components as being document management, Web content management (WCM), records management, document capture and document imaging, document-centric collaboration, and workflow.
"We are pleased Gartner positioned Stellent in the leader quadrant in its Enterprise Content Management Magic Quadrant,” said Robert Olson, president and chief executive officer for Stellent. "We believe this recognition confirms the global success of our Stellent® Universal Content Management™ product suite — purchased by more than 3,000 customers worldwide — and our ability to effectively anticipate, direct and initiate market trends. Stellent remains committed to continually expanding and enhancing our enterprise content management system to ensure it fulfills customers’ evolving needs.”
For example, the company recently released new retention management capabilities for Stellent Universal Content Management, extending its retention policy engine to cover all content — records and non-records — and allow usage analytics and other factors to drive the content retention and disposition process. This new, customer-driven functionality enables organizations to implement a strategy that provides discovery, retention and disposition for all data to help lower storage costs, facilitate and ease legal discovery, manage risks, and decrease overall content clutter throughout the enterprise.
"Our Stellent enterprise content management implementation has been a tremendous success because the technology meets a diverse set of needs across our organization,” said Curt Doble, director of corporate application services for Land O’Lakes. "Stellent Universal Content Management enables us to effectively manage a variety of unstructured content and multiple content-centric applications within one architecture. We believe we saved an estimated $250,000 over one year from a single Stellent-powered application and feel the system has vast potential for additional expansion throughout our enterprise.”
Along with this recognition, Gartner also has named Stellent in the visionary quadrant in the "Magic Quadrant for Financial Compliance Process Management Software, 2005” 2 report.
