        Buyers Guide Services: Enterprise and Service Providers

        Assessing and Evaluating Providers and Products

        The Buyers Guide subscription service is a valuable resource to make informed decisions about software providers. It gives access to authoritative and trusted information to understand, assess, optimize, and select software providers and products essential to making effective decisions. The subscription service offers access to independent, in-depth research and advice from subject matter experts based on an objective analysis of software providers spanning business and IT.

        About the Methodology

        The Buyers Guide is a research-based product that provides market insights designed to ascertain the nuance of software providers and products for evaluation using an RFI-based approach. The best practices-based methodology called the Value Index draws on two-plus decades of software research experience and expertise. The research results in the rankings and ratings of software providers and products to ensure that the best possible decision can be made on existing and potential new software providers using a product and customer experience evaluation framework.
