Gartner has once again positioned Schneider Electric as a Leader in its 2015 Magic Quadrant for DCIM Tools, praising its "comprehensive vision" and "ability to execute." This recognition underscores Schneider Electric's ability to deliver a fully integrated solution for mission-critical IT room installations, providing the visibility, control, and automation customers need to enable energy and operating cost savings while improving business performance.
“Businesses are becoming increasingly reliant on digital information, transforming data centers from cost centers into business drivers. Connecting DCIM with IT management services (ITSM) provides a complete view of the data center and forms the foundation of the software-defined data center,” says Soeren Brogaard Jensen, vice president of Global Data Center Software and Managed Services at Schneider Electric. “We believe that being named a Leader in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for DCIM supports our ability to help data center managers make informed decisions based on a comprehensive analytics platform, especially since the solution can be segmented to suit different industries.”
