The ERP solution Epicor 9 has been positioned as a visionary in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant (MQ) for ERP for Product-Centric Midmarket Companies.

Gartner’s MQ for ERP for Product-Centric Midmarket Companies evaluates products that have a global presence and are specifically tailored for product-centric midmarket companies with roughly US$50m to US$1bn in revenue.

According to Gartner, among the major trends and changes in the market since the last publication of this Magic Quadrant is, “Service-oriented architecture (SOA) and BPM prove their value in packaged applications for the midmarket: A combination of SOAs and BPM concepts allow for an unprecedented level of flexibility and adaptability.”
