(NASDAQ: MKTG), a leading provider of SaaS multichannel campaign management solutions, today announced that it has been positioned as a "Visionary" in Gartner, Inc.'s May 2012 "Magic Quadrant for CRM Multichannel Campaign Management" (MCCM)(1) report. Published by Adam Sarner, Research Director at Gartner, the Magic Quadrant evaluates vendors in the multichannel campaign management market based on their ability to execute and completeness of vision.
This latest evaluation places Responsys in the "Visionaries" quadrant of the Magic Quadrant, which Gartner describes as companies that "provide a strong vision for the campaign management market, or excel in advanced or emerging areas, such as inbound marketing, social and overall digital marketing."

Gartner defines multichannel campaign management (MCCM) as the processes that enable companies to define, orchestrate and communicate offers to customer segments across multichannel environments, such as websites, mobile, social, direct mail, call centers and email. And, according to Sarner in the report, "Digital marketing is transforming MCCM."
