EMC Corporation (NYSE:EMC), the world leader in information infrastructure solutions, today announced it has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the "Leaders" quadrant of the "Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Content Management"* report. Gartner describes enterprise content management (ECM) market leaders as having:

"The highest combined scores for ability to execute and completeness of vision. They are doing well and are prepared for the future with a clearly articulated vision. In the context of content management, they have strong channel partners, a presence in multiple regions, consistent financial performance, broad platform support and good customer support. In addition, they dominate in one or more technology or vertical market. Leaders deliver a suite that addresses all six core components, though these are not necessarily tightly integrated or best-of-breed in each area. Greater emphasis is given this year to demonstrated enterprise deployments; integration with other business applications and content repositories; incorporation of Web 2.0 and XML capabilities; and vertical-process/horizontal-solution focus. Market leaders can, and should, drive market transformation."

"It is an honor to be recognized by the analysts at Gartner in their prestigious Magic Quadrant report," said Mark Lewis, President, Content Management and Archiving Division at EMC. "For more than 20 years, EMC has been the driving force and thought leader in content management. And we continue to take this leadership to the next level today — driving comprehensive interoperability standards and delivering premier Enterprise Content Management solutions for the Web 2.0 world. We're pleased the experts at Gartner have chosen to recognize EMC for our completeness of vision and our ability to execute on that vision."
