News Facts

Oracle today announced that Gartner, Inc. has recognized Oracle as a leader in Web content management in its recent “Magic Quadrant for Web Content Management(1).”

In its 2010 report, “Magic Quadrant for Web Content Management (WCM),” Gartner positioned Oracle in the Leaders Quadrant.
Gartner’s Magic Quadrant report positions vendors within a particular quadrant based on their completeness of vision and ability to execute.
According to Gartner: “WCM has transformed from a stand-alone application into one integrated into a larger environment. WCM systems need to do more than make content available to adjacent technologies or applications. Rather WCM systems must interoperate with a wider range of applications and data sources.”

“To cost-effectively develop and deliver multi-channel Web content that meets increasingly high user expectations and generates business results, organizations need an integrated and easy-to-use solution for Web content authoring, design and presentation,” said Andy MacMillan, vice president, Product Management, Oracle. “We believe Gartner’s recognition of Oracle Web Content Management is a reflection of the significant enhancements incorporated into Oracle Content Management 11g, especially the improvements created by our Open Web Content Management strategy and the broader set of integrations with content analytics and business applications.”
