INTRODUCTIONThis FrontRunners analysis is a data-drivenassessment identifying products in the ProjectManagement software market that offer the bestcapability and value for small businesses. For agiven market, products are evaluated and given ascore for the capability (x-axis) and value (y-axis)they bring to users. FrontRunners then plots thetop 25-30 products in a quadrant format.In the Project Management FrontRunners graphic,the Capability axis starts at 3.20 and ends at 4.40,while the Value axis starts at 3.90 and ends at 4.80.To be considered for the Project ManagementFrontRunners, a product needed a minimum of25 user reviews, a minimum capability user ratingscore of 4.30 and a minimum value user ratingscore of 4.30. In most cases, we evaluate hundredsof products and feature 20-25 as FrontRunners;all products that qualify as FrontRunners are topperforming products in their market.MARCH 20184
I ntroductionEach product falls within a designated quadrant based ontheir axis scores. Dependent on the specific needs of thesoftware buyer, a product placed in any quadrant categorycould be a good fit.QUADRANT CATEGORIES:»» Upper Right Leaders: Leaders are all-around strongproducts. They offer the highest value and capabilityin that market.»» Upper Left Masters: Masters may have fewercapabilities, but end users value those capabilitieshighly. Depending on the functionality needed, aproduct positioned in the Masters quadrant might bea better option to consider than products positionedin other quadrants.»» Lower Right Pacesetters: Pacesetters may offer astrong set of capabilities, but are not rated as high onvalue. For example, a Pacesetter might have a breadthof functionality at a higher price point.»» Lower Left Contenders: Contenders are strongperforming products that have not yet achieved thevalue and capability of the products in the otherquadrants. For example, products in this quadrantmay be more suited for companies that need morespecialized functionality that comes at a price.MARCH 20185
