Gartner regularly reviews global technology markets and in particular, the market positioning of the vendors in this market space. The result is a 'Magic Quadrant' research document for the market under review.

Vendors in the research are rated according to their:

• 'Ability to Execute'. This estimates each vendor's viability, delivery capabilities, product features and DOM footprint (market share, awareness among Gartner clients)
• 'Completeness of Vision'. This concerns each vendor's vision for technology, market leadership, product and business.

The 2002 DOM Magic Quadrant ranks Macro 4 as a 'Leader' and discusses how enterprises can streamline document management and reduce output costs by migrating to electronic delivery using existing Output Management technology such as Macro 4's.

Macro 4 is one of the few vendors in the market to offer a fully integrated DOM and document archival and retrieval software solution (Gartner: IDARS) to provide a complete document management solution that also provides enterprise-wide access to an exact, electronic copy of every document generated and received.

The cost savings and efficiencies offered by electronic documents have been the key drivers for organisations to implement multiple channel output delivery. Electronic channels streamline business processes and facilitate value-added customer services such as e-billing, e-invoicing and electronic statement presentment.
