I’m incredibly proud to announce that Adobe has been named a Leader in two recent ecommerce reports from Forrester Research Inc. – “The Forrester Wave™: B2C Commerce Suites, Q2 2020” and “The Forrester Wave™: B2B Commerce Suites, Q2 2020.” Adobe has been evaluated as a Leader following the company’s acquisition of the Magento platform in June 2018. Adobe was one of 13 vendors in the B2B Wave and 10 vendors in the B2C Wave that were evaluated on their Strategy, Current Offering and Market Presence. Adobe is the only vendor to have achieved a rating of 3 or higher out of 5 in all criteria in both Waves.

“Regardless of whether you’re a B2B or a B2C brand, commerce has taken a defining role as more companies embrace Customer Experience Management (CXM),” said Jason Woosley, vice president, Commerce Product and Platform, Adobe. “This rings particularly true today when businesses are accelerating their move to digital as the primary way to connect with their customers. We believe that being named a Leader in the B2B and B2C Wave evaluations demonstrates that we’re making the right investments to extend Magento’s capabilities to empower both commercial and enterprise brands to deliver compelling, shoppable experiences at scale.”
