Leading Analyst Firm Acknowledges Liaison Technologies as a Top Integration Broker

PRLog (Press Release) - Jan. 29, 2013 - London, 29 January 2013 - Liaison Technologies (http://liaison.com/home), a global provider of secure cloud-based integration (http://liaison.com/solutions/data-integration) and data management (http://liaison.com/solutions/data-management) services and solutions, announced today that it was recognised as a top IB provider based on market share in 2011 by Gartner in its Competitive Landscape: Integration Brokerage (IB) report. The report analysed 11 integration brokerage providers, looking at how new user requirements and the evolution of current-generation IB offerings will eventually disrupt the market, altering the competitive landscape in the year to come. Liaison Technologies was positioned in the top-5 spot based on revenue with 4.3 percent of the highly fragmented market surrounded by IBM with 4.4 percent and SPS Commerce with 4.0 percent revenue share.

According to Gartner’s report, the worldwide revenue for integration brokerage services is expected to hit $1.5 billion by end of 2012, and five-year compound annual growth rate from 2011 through 2016 will be a solid double-digit rate. While many midsize and large enterprises still implement their own B2B integration projects, integration brokerage offers enterprises across all market sectors significant efficiencies, particularly as cloud and managed services add to the complexity of integration projects.

“As companies continue to embrace the cloud and the enterprise grows in complexity, hybrid approaches between on-premise and managed services integration will become increasingly critical as the glue that keeps everything running smoothly,” said Mikko Soirola, VP of Liaison Technologies. “We believe Liaison’s diverse integration capabilities that span A2A, B2B and cloud provide the most advanced solutions for our customers.”
