CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Aug. 3, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — Pegasystems Inc. (NASDAQ: PEGA), the software company empowering customer engagement at the world’s leading enterprises, today announced it has been named a Visionary in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Mobile App Development Platforms report (1) for the third consecutive year.

In the report, Gartner evaluated 19 Mobile App Development Platforms (MADP) vendors against 15 different criteria based on their ability to execute and completeness of vision. According to the report: “The MADP was first defined by Gartner in 2012 as a platform for addressing and consolidating enterprise mobile app development projects across business-to-employee (B2E), business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C) app use cases. Today, MADPs are still primarily used to address those diverse mobile app requirements, but they also increasingly support responsive web app development, conversational channels, wearables and immersive devices.”

Pega Infinity™, the company’s next-generation digital transformation software, provides advanced mobile design and development capabilities that enable developers to quickly create elegant and powerful user interfaces and extend them across multiple channels. By connecting its customer engagement applications to digital process automation (DPA), Pega ensures exceptional form and function in every digital interaction. Today Pega Infinity™ powers customer experiences for more than 1.5 billion consumers for some of the largest and most successful brands in the world.

Pega was also recognized in Gartner’s 2018 Magic Quadrant for CRM Customer Engagement Center (2) and the Gartner’s 2017 Magic Quadrant for Intelligent Business Process Management Suites (3), in which Pega was named a Leader in both reports. Pega also received the highest scores in Internal Complex and Internal Simple Apps uses cases in Gartner’s 2017 Critical Capabilities for Mobile App Development Platforms (4).
