Evaluation Based on Completeness of Vision and
Ability to Execute
Citrix today announced that Gartner, Inc. has positioned the
company in the leaders quadrant of the 2014 Magic Quadrant for
Enterprise File Synchronization and Sharing (EFSS)1 report. The
report evaluates Citrix ShareFile®, a secure file sync and sharing
service that meets the mobility and collaboration needs of users
and the data security requirements of enterprises. This follows the
company’s recent placement by Gartner in the leaders quadrant of
the 2014 Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM)
Suites2 report.
According to Gartner, “leaders provide mature offerings that
meet market demand. They have demonstrated the vision necessary to
sustain their market positions as requirements evolve. The hallmark
of Leaders is that they focus and invest in their offerings to lead
the market and affect its overall direction. Leaders can be the
vendors to watch as you try to understand how new offerings might
evolve. Leaders typically possess a significant, satisfied customer
base and enjoy high visibility in the market. Their size and
maturity enable them to remain viable under changing market
conditions.”
With ShareFile, customers have the flexibility to choose where
their data is stored - in the cloud, on premises, or a mix of both
- making it a popular solution among global organizations. In fact,
the majority of enterprise customers are opting for a combination
of cloud and on-premises deployments over cloud-only deployments to
support data sovereignty, compliance and performance needs.
ShareFile also expands the types of data users can open and edit on
the go. It unifies access to enterprise content management systems
from mobile devices, making it easier to swiftly and securely take
care of business from anywhere. It can also connect to users’
personal cloud storage accounts, enabling IT to bring corporate
data from personal accounts into ShareFile for secure
management.
ShareFile is a key component of Citrix Workspace Suite™, the
market leading mobile workspace solution. Citrix Workspace Suite is
the only complete solution for the secure delivery and management
of mobile, web, SaaS and Windows apps, including email and
collaboration, data and devices over any network from any cloud.
ShareFile is also an integral part of Citrix XenMobile®, a full EMM
solution uniquely delivering the best of mobile device management,
mobile application management and enterprise-grade productivity
apps. To learn more, register for our upcoming webinar.

Jesse Lipson, vice president, Citrix
“We see our position in the leaders quadrant of both the
Enterprise File Synchronization and Sharing and Enterprise Mobility
Management Suites reports as a reflection of our ability to meet
the needs of today’s enterprises. We believe it validates that
Citrix is a strong, comprehensive option for those considering
enterprise-wide file synchronization and sharing deployments as
well as EMM and mobile workspace investments. In fact, we’re seeing
an increasing number of organizations choosing integrated solutions
over standalone EFSS offerings as they recognize the value of
deploying a complete mobile solution.”
