Magic Quadrants
A magic quadrant is a visual snapshot of
a market’s direction, maturity and
participants. It depicts markets in the
middle phases of their life cycle by using
a two-dimensional matrix that evaluates
vendors based on their completeness of
vision and ability to execute.
Each point on the matrix is linked to a
definition and an explanation about its
position.
