BPMS Watch » Gartner BPMS Quadrant Released

We did not make it because our revenues are less than $20M. According to such a criteria, a company like JBoss would not make it either. Go figure… Yet, I tend to believe that Gartner is not really supportive of Open Source in general

Magic Quadrant for Horizontal Portal Products, 2006

by nhoizey (via)
Through 2008, less than 10 percent of Global 1000 companies will deploy open-source portals at the enterprise level because of lack of compelling advantages in cost, support, functionality and finish (0.8 probability). However, Gartner does not expect this trend to continue indefinitely. The technology in Java-based horizontal OSS portals, such as that provided by JBoss (recently acquired by Red Hat), is maturing, and vendor-independent portal standards, such as JSR 168, are reducing concerns about vendor lock-in. Additionally, some large ISVs have continued to exploit OSS technology in their portals, highlighted by Sun Microsystems' new strategy of open sourcing its entire infrastructure stack, including its portal. Open-source portal solutions could pose a threat to large ISVs' traditional license sales. At the same time, open source provides large ISVs with opportunities to generate revenue from services supporting open-source initiatives.
