How is Gartner different from its competitors?
Gartner is the world’s leading information technology research and advisory company. Everything we do is focused on the success of our clients. Our most important source of competitive differentiation is the unparalleled breadth and depth of our coverage. We are the most influential force in technology, fielding 10,000 worldwide media inquiries a year. And we serve the people who matter in virtually every industry. Our interactions with 60,000 clients representing 10,000 distinct organizations worldwide, enable us to make connections, understand patterns and discover trends no other research firm can envision. A survey of 1,100 business-technology professionals, conducted by Optimize magazine, found Gartner to be the analyst company with the most influence over how CIOs purchase or implement technology. We had nearly twice the influence of our closest competitor.
