LeanIX is Named a Challenger in 2020 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Architecture Tools

LeanIX Recognized for Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute 

Bonn, Germany and Boston, MA – December 17, 2020 - LeanIX, a provider of Software-as-a-Service solutions for Enterprise Architecture (EA) and Cloud Governance, today announced that LeanIX has been positioned by Gartner as a Challenger in the 2020 Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Architecture Tools. The evaluation was based on specific criteria that analyzed the company’s overall completeness of vision and ability to execute.  

More than 300 organizations, both fast growing tech companies like Atlassian and Dropbox and global enterprises like adidas, DHL, Merck and Volkswagen use LeanIX’s Enterprise Architecture (EA) solution. CIOs, CTOs and Enterprise Architects use LeanIX to transform their business for the digital age and to simplify the management of their IT landscapes. Their businesses benefit from increased speed for making decisions, reduced costs on IT investments and decreased risks from legacy technology and sensitive data.

“Nine years ago, we founded LeanIX to challenge the traditional thinking, processes and tools used in EA. This recognition is a great milestone of our journey,” said André Christ, CEO and Co-founder of LeanIX.  “With LeanIX, EA is accessible to everyone - every user and every organization. Our focus for bringing an intuitive user experience, open APIs and out-of-the-box reports were instrumental towards reaching this goal. With the ongoing digital transformation, it’s crucial that insights provided by an EA tool can be consumed widely within the organization. With our recently launched Business Transformation Management (BTM) module we take this principle to the next level. It enables organizations to break down their strategic objectives to architecture plans, create scenarios, plan roadmaps and execute transformation programs successfully.”
