4 Content Management Vendors to Watch in 2018

4 Content Management Vendors to Watch in 2018The Enterprise Content Management (ECM) market is evolving. In early 2017, Gartner announced the rebranding of its Magic Quadrant for ECM, which is now centered on Content Services Platforms (CSP). CSPs are the next stage of ECM tools, according to the tech research giant.

An ECM solution is utilized to create, store, distribute, and manage unstructured content to analyze and deliver it to users whenever and wherever necessary. On the other hand, a CSP refers to a set of services and microservices that use various content types to serve clients and their use cases. This kind of platform can be delivered as an integrated product suite or as separate applications that have similar APIs and repositories. The changes in this space represent a shift from self-contained systems and repositories to open services.

According to Gartner, it’s predicted that 20 percent of major EFSS and ECM vendors will change their existing offerings into CSPs by 2020. In that same time period, 15 percent of enterprises are expected to leave their legacy ECM vendor for a provider that offers content services.

Whether you plan to implement an ECM tool or CSP, here are some vendors to keep an eye on for the remainder of this year:
