Gartner Places Unify in Leaders Quandrant

Telephony
Unify, formerly Siemens Enterprise Communications, has been named by Gartner, Inc. as a leader in the Magic Quadrant for Corporate Telephony.

According to Gartner, vendors in the Leaders’ quadrant “are high-viability vendors with broad portfolios, significant market shares, broad geographic coverage, a clear vision of how telephony needs will evolve and a proven track record for delivering telephony solutions.”

Unify is positioned in the Leaders‘ Quadrant based on the company’s completeness of vision and ability to execute. Gartner judges a company’s completeness of vision based on their ability to convincingly articulate logical statements about current and future market directions, innovations, customer needs and competitive forces, and how well these map to Gartner's overall understanding of the marketplace. Ability to execute is evaluated based on the breadth, quality and overall maturity of a vendor’s applications, processes, tools and procedures that enhance individual, group and enterprise communications and vendors are ultimately judged on their ability and success in capitalizing on their vision.

“Unify is leading the industry in helping enterprises embrace the new way to work to transform how they communicate and collaborate, and our historical foundation in corporate telephony helps drive that innovation,” said Chris Hummel, chief commercial officer and president, North America, for Unify. “We are proud to again be recognized by Gartner for our strength in corporate telephony and the innovation behind our OpenScape solution.“
