Warehouse management system (WMS) provider Softeon recently announced that it has been named a Visionary in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for WMS for the 13th time in a row.
A Gartner Magic Quadrant is a culmination of research in a specific market, which gives readers a wide-angle view of the relative positions of the market’s competitors. Softeon said it is focused on optimizing warehouse and fulfillment performance to increase operational efficiency.
According to Gartner, “Depth and breadth of WMS functionality remain very important factors in choosing a new WMS, especially for companies replacing aging legacy systems. Increasingly, the technical architecture of the WMS is an important consideration for new WMS customers where adaptability, extensibility, user experience, and cloud are priorities.”
Softeon said its WMS systems can empower supply chain executives to oversee extensive and intricate integrations within a unified platform, encompassing material handling equipment, robotics, and additional enterprise software.
The company said its software can streamline warehouse operations by facilitating the rapid interoperable integration of robots from multiple vendors, which can foster efficient decision-making and task coordination. Designed to meet unique operational and workflow demands, Softeon said its systems boast adaptability to evolving operational needs and the seamless incorporation of new technologies.
