Q: How do you obtain your data? A: We obtain market data through primary end user research. This research data focuses on finding out granular detail in terms of customer pain points and how individual vendors are perceived. We obtain product data through customer conversations, demos, surveys, briefings, and primary experimentation. Q: Can vendors influence the report results? A: No. Vendors are simply notified of their award. Vendors are not aware of any award details before until the report content is complete. |
