Gartner Magic Quadrant for ECM 2008

Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 has moved from the “Visionary” quadrant into “Leaders” quadrant, in the past year. According to Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Content Management (ECM) for 2008, this move has been fuelled by steady course of SharePoint and the number of the companies that have implemented it. Gartner recognizes that SharePoint OOB offers basic tools for six core ECM features, supported by a strategic vendor that is Microsoft.

Gartner also warns that SharePoint is still lacking improvements in scalability and replication management, as well as quality imaging and BPM tools.
