Gartner Labels Archibus as Leader in 2013 Magic Quadrant

Archibus, Inc., developer of a solution for real estate, infrastructure, and facilities management software, is positioned in the Leaders quadrant of the 2013 "Magic Quadrant for Integrated Workplace Management Systems" report by Gartner, Inc., which positions IWMS software companies according to their vision and ability to execute.

"Leaders," says Gartner's definition of the term, "have strength in applications and platform technology, demonstrate a high level of quality in product reliability and service, have strong operational and organizational capabilities and financial stability, have global reach and offer a strong vision of customer needs, reflected in a robust development road map."

According to a release, in its 2013 findings, Gartner recognized Archibus as a Leader for these notable reasons:

-Archibus has a strong international presence... through its Federated Eco-System of partners and Archibus Solution Centers (ASCs), Archibus' products and services are available in more than 190 countries and in 30 languages.

-Archibus offers a full range of integrated IWMS functionality and is particularly strong in real estate, facility and building operations management, asset management, Building Information Modeling 4.0 (BIM 4.0), and environmental sustainability and risk management.

-Archibus' integrated commercial off-the-shelf structure allows for rapid time-to-value deployment (for example, actionable results within 30 to 90 days...), and is relatively scalable for small, midsize and large organizations.

"Being cited as a Leader for the 6th time in a row, in the 2013 Gartner Magic Quadrant for IWMS, is both an honor and recognition of the continuing evolution of Archibus and the loyalty of over 7 million members in the Archibus Federated Eco-System ___now over 30 years old with a customer retention of over 96.4 percent," said Archibus Founder and President/CEO Bruce K. Forbes.

"The Archibus V.21.2 release presents a technology and methodology that bends the IWMS cost curve, lowering an organization's Total Cost of Ownership. Each year, Archibus users save the organizations they serve over $100 billion (USD). Archibus continues to address the urgent needs and points of pain of our customers. The Archibus community realizes that for success (especially during periods of economic recession) embracing notions such as: "a Penny Saved is a Penny Earned"; "Do More with Less"; and, "Deploying the Best-of-the-Best Practices, Products and Services" is a must."
