Boomi extends leadership streak in Gartner Quadrant for iPaaS

Techday NZ22-05-2025
Boomi has been named a Leader in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) for the 11th consecutive year.
This marks the longest leadership streak in the history of the report, which evaluates vendors based on their completeness of vision and ability to execute. The recognition reflects Boomi's recent focus on AI-driven integration, API management, and data management to help enterprises unify connections across their technology landscape.
In recent months, Boomi has accelerated its investment in artificial intelligence capabilities.
Among its latest advancements is the launch of Boomi Agentstudio, described by the company as the only full agent lifecycle management solution available. This platform supports the design, governance, and orchestration of AI agents at scale, which Boomi says can assist organisations in managing productivity and responsible AI adoption.
Boomi has also enhanced its Application Programming Interface (API) management capabilities. The company states that its expanded API Management now provides cloud-scale oversight of APIs and addresses the growing problem of API sprawl across businesses.
By introducing federated governance, Boomi aims to deliver improved security, visibility, and value for APIs throughout enterprises.
Another significant update is the integration of Boomi Data Integration, previously known as Rivery, into its platform. This addition is intended to simplify the process for customers who need to integrate applications, data, APIs, and AI agents using a single unified solution. According to Boomi, this complements its existing DataHub capabilities, enhancing synchronisation and governance as the foundation for trusted data management.
Boomi currently provides services to over 23,000 customers worldwide, including organisations such as LEGO, Tropicana, and Moderna. The company reports that these enterprises depend on Boomi to connect and automate their essential business applications and data processes.
The company's partner network has experienced further expansion, with global system integrators, independent software vendors, and major cloud hyperscalers increasing their collaborations with Boomi. Recent agreements with Amazon Web Services (AWS) and ServiceNow are cited as avenues to enhance customer experiences, particularly through the use of AI-powered self-service solutions.
Steve Lucas, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at Boomi, commented on the achievement, stating: "As organisations continue their journey to becoming AI-driven enterprises, integration and automation have never been more critical."
"I believe Boomi's continued recognition as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for iPaaS underscores our relentless focus on innovation and our commitment to enabling our customers and partners to achieve their digital transformation goals. We are honored to be a Leader in this category and remain dedicated to delivering the most advanced, AI-enabled automation platform on the market."

Fortinet named SASE leader by Gartner, eyes USD $28.5 billion market

Fortinet has been recognised as a Leader in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) Platforms and ranked first in the Secure Branch Network Modernisation use case in the associated Gartner Critical Capabilities for SASE Platforms report. The designation in the Magic Quadrant report marks a significant acknowledgement for Fortinet in the cybersecurity sector, as SASE platforms continue to play a central role in network security strategies across various industries. The evaluation from Gartner is of particular note to enterprise customers seeking solutions that unify networking and security functions. Market recognition Fortinet regards this latest recognition as supporting its strategic vision to bring together advanced secure software-defined wide area network (SD‐WAN), universal zero trust network access (ZTNA), and artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled threat protection within a single platform. Nirav Shah, Senior Vice President, Products and Solutions at Fortinet, stated: "We are honoured to be recognised as a Leader in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for SASE Platforms and believe this recognition validates our commitment to organic innovation - building a unified, AI-powered platform that spans all secure access service edge (SASE) use cases. We believe being positioned in the Leaders quadrant in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for SASE Platforms affirms our strategy of blending proven secure SD‐WAN, universal ZTNA, and AI‐powered threat protection under a single operating system, FortiOS, and one licence for added simplicity and faster return on investment." The company said this recognition follows its recent achievements, which include being acknowledged as a Leader in the 2024 Gartner Magic Quadrant for SD‐WAN for the fifth year in a row, and being named as a Customers' Choice in the 2024 and 2025 Gartner Peer Insights for key segments, including Security Service Edge (SSE), SD-WAN, and ZTNA. Unified approach Fortinet's Unified SASE offering is built on FortiOS, aiming to supply consistent security measures and user experiences across campuses, cloud environments, and remote workforces. The platform is designed for centralised management with a single console and agent, which Fortinet argues reduces complexity and streamlines both policy enforcement and deployment. According to the company, the unified approach incorporates over 160 points of presence globally and utilises a simplified licensing model. Fortinet emphasises monthly product updates, including AI-driven security workflows, as essential to maintaining protection against evolving threats. Branch modernisation The report's ranking in the Secure Branch Network Modernisation use case highlights Fortinet's capability to help clients upgrade from legacy branch network infrastructures. This includes facilitating the transition away from multiprotocol label switching to higher performance branch experiences. Fortinet claims that organisations benefit from faster, simpler site deployments using zero-touch provisioning and centralised management, supporting quicker scaling with less operational overhead. The company said its focus on converging networking and security at the network edge allows IT departments to deliver secure, scalable connectivity solutions. This integration is designed to help reduce costs while providing flexibility in branch modernisation. Growing market Fortinet's ongoing investment in SASE infrastructure and partner enablement positions the company to address demand in a sector which, according to Gartner forecasts, could exceed USD $28.5 billion by 2028. The company's offerings also aim to address regulatory requirements around data sovereignty, which are central concerns in industries such as finance, healthcare, and government. Fortinet was acknowledged for its broader performance in the cybersecurity market, being recognised in 11 separate Magic Quadrant reports spanning both security and networking. The press release noted: "Fortinet was recognised in 11 different Magic Quadrant reports including being named an Honorable Mention in Magic Quadrant for Data Centre Switching, for Access Management, and for Privileged Access Management." In addition to the recognition for SASE and SD-WAN, the company stated it remains the only provider named as a Customer's Choice across all three core SASE segments - SD-WAN, SSE, and ZTNA - on Gartner Peer Insights. Fortinet believes this further validates its strategy to unify networking and security through its Security Fabric platform.

Bitdefender named sole Visionary in 2025 Gartner EPP report

Bitdefender has been named the only Visionary in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Endpoint Protection Platforms, marking its third consecutive year in this position. According to Gartner, the Magic Quadrant evaluates 15 vendors on their completeness of vision and ability to execute, considering criteria such as market understanding, product and service capabilities, business model, innovation, geographic presence, and customer experience. Bitdefender's recognition follows the introduction of GravityZone Proactive Hardening and Attack Surface Reduction (PHASR), described as an endpoint security solution offering individually tailored hardening for employees based on their behaviour patterns, use of tools, and application activity. Daniel Daraban, Vice President of Products, Bitdefender Business Solutions Group, commented on the recognition: "To us, being named the only Visionary in this year's Magic Quadrant signals that the industry is ready for a more intelligent, proactive approach to security. We believe this recognition reflects our long-standing commitment to building the future of cybersecurity – where security is tailored, risk is managed in real-time, and compliance is built in. With our GravityZone XDR platform and MDR services, we empower defenders to work more effectively and efficiently, because that's what really matters. We're proud to lead where others are only beginning to explore." The Gartner evaluation assessed each vendor's strategy across marketing, sales, and offerings, as well as execution factors such as sales performance, pricing, market responsiveness, and client feedback. Platform development Bitdefender's GravityZone platform brings together endpoint protection (EPP), endpoint detection and response (EDR), extended detection and response (XDR), and cloud-native security into a unified package. The platform is designed to provide risk analytics and compliance alongside advanced security context for incidents, integrating directly with Bitdefender Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services. The company has continued to build on this platform, with enhancements such as GravityZone Compliance Manager, GravityZone Extended Attack Surface Management (EASM), and the newly introduced GravityZone PHASR. Recent achievements Bitdefender reported several notable results in independent industry evaluations during the last year. It was named a 2025 Gartner Peer Insights Customers' Choice for Endpoint Protection Platforms, receiving a 4.8 out of 5 aggregate rating from 214 GravityZone customer reviews. Only four other vendors shared this distinction. In the AV-Comparatives Business Security Test, Bitdefender was one of 17 participants and the only vendor to achieve a 100% protection rate, blocking all 483 test cases. The GravityZone platform also scored 98.8% in protecting systems from malware infections before, during, or after execution of malicious files. In the MITRE ATT&CK evaluations, GravityZone was noted for its alert accuracy and minimal false positives, generating an average of only three alerts needed to identify and report incidents to the security operations centre. This is compared to the median of 209 alerts across other solutions tested. Bitdefender was also named a Strong Performer in the Forrester Wave: Extended Detection and Response for the second quarter of 2024. The evaluation covered 11 vendors and 22 specific criteria, including analyst experience, artificial intelligence and machine learning, endpoint protection, and product security. Customer perspective User testimonials reflected positive feedback. In a Gartner Peer Insights review, an IT Director from a services sector enterprise wrote: "Our overall experience with GravityZone has been excellent. It does a great job of protecting our endpoints while not causing any performance or stability issues once properly configured. I would highly recommend GravityZone to fellow IT Directors and System Engineers." Bitdefender executives suggested the continued recognition is a sign of the company's direction in developing solutions that move beyond reactive security to methods that adapt to organisational risks dynamically. The Gartner Magic Quadrant and Peer Insights are based on analyst research and customer input, respectively, and aim to provide a structured analysis across the market's key players.

Netskope named Leader in Gartner SASE Magic Quadrant again

Netskope has been named as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) Platforms for the second consecutive year. The Gartner Magic Quadrant for SASE Platforms recognises vendors that demonstrate a comprehensive vision and strong ability to execute in the secure access service edge sector. Netskope's position as a Leader follows its earlier recognition this year in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Security Service Edge (SSE). According to the results, Netskope is currently the only vendor positioned as furthest in Completeness of Vision in both the SASE and SSE Platforms Magic Quadrant reports. In the upcoming companion SASE Platforms Critical Capabilities report, Netskope is also the only vendor ranked as the highest scoring for three Use Cases and the second highest for a fourth Use Case. These findings highlight the company's performance across both security and networking capabilities. Netskope provides the Netskope One platform, which converges security, network, and analytics products into a unified system. The platform is designed with zero trust principles and AI enhancements to support organisations adapting to cloud and AI-driven environments. According to the company, this architecture is intended to optimise network access, drive data protection, counter threats, and facilitate secure remote connectivity for workforces located anywhere. "The right security and networking architecture is absolutely critical to how organisations modernise. With the purpose-built architecture of the Netskope One platform, and applying AI-ready security, our customers don't need to accept trade-offs between advanced security capabilities and network performance," said Sanjay Beri, CEO and co-founder, Netskope. "We are very proud of our continued recognition as a Leader in SASE, SSE, and other market categories. In this specific report, it is validating to see Gartner's recognition of Netskope as likely to shape the SASE Platforms market, including with our innovations in post-quantum cryptography and how we are diligently extending SASE to nonhuman AI agents. We are committed to innovation and meeting our customers anywhere they are in their SSE and SASE journeys." The Netskope One platform includes a range of integrated solutions, such as Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN), Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB), Secure Web Gateway (SWG), Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), Enterprise Browser, Remote Browser Isolation (RBI), Unified Data Security functionalities including data loss prevention and data security posture management, Firewall-as-a-Service (FWaaS), and Digital Experience Management (DEM). Proprietary AI models and patented innovations are present throughout the platform, and services are delivered over the Netskope NewEdge Network - a private cloud infrastructure developed to support high performance for secure enterprise access to various digital resources. The company's approach aligns with Gartner's market forecasts for SASE. Gartner predicts that by 2027, half of chief information officers and chief information security officers will prioritise consistent secure access for all types of branches, campuses, and edge locations. By 2028, 60% of SASE offerings are expected to have data security posture management integration to protect sensitive data across hybrid and cloud environments, and 70% of SD-WAN purchases will be as part of single-vendor SASE platforms, up from 25% in 2025. Gartner also forecasts considerable adoption of single-vendor SASE solutions among large organisations, with integration of generative AI techniques expected to contribute to threat detection and operational efficiencies in future deployments. Netskope's position in the SASE and SSE market categories reflects the company's continuing development in merging network and security solutions to address changing digital security requirements and operational needs as organisations move to cloud and AI-enabled environments.
