From IDC

IDC MarketScape vendor analysis model is designed to provide an overview of the competitive fitness of ICT suppliers in a given market. The research methodology utilizes a rigorous scoring methodology based on both qualitative and quantitative criteria that results in a single graphical illustration of each vendor's position within a given market. The Capabilities score measures vendor product, go-to-market and business execution in the short-term. The Strategy score measures alignment of vendor strategies with customer requirements in a 3-5-year timeframe. Vendor market share is represented by the size of the circles. Vendor year-over-year growth rate relative to the given market is indicated by a plus, neutral or minus next to the vendor name.

Data is foundational to building a successful customer experience management strategy, and Adobe Real-Time CDP allows customers to jumpstart on this effort and leapfrog the competition. Real-Time CDP differentiates in the market by offering our customers actionable unified profiles to build comprehensive customer views, built-in governance controls allowing brands to market responsibly as well as an open and extensible architecture providing organizations a path to take on additional use cases as they evolve/grow. These ever-expanding capabilities are backed by Real-Time CDPs tight integration with the Adobe Experience Cloud.

The CDP market has been abuzz over the last several years. Customers are feeling increased urgency to solidify the future of their data management strategy as the cookie-less future shifts from a far-off concept into reality. On the flipside, consumers expect more than ever before, demanding personalized messaging and content in every context while at the same time demanding their privacy expectations be met.

We're proud that the IDC MarketScape recognizes Adobe's offering is meeting the moment with the highest score in strategy. In the report the IDC MarketScape notes that "Adobe's Real-Time CDP helps to address the challenge of developing a 360-degree customer view" and goes on to say that "Customers in large enterprises that need global solutions, services and support should consider Adobe a strong choice."
