process, as it focuses on direct peer experiences of implementing and operating a solution. In this
document, only vendors with 20 or more eligible published reviews (and 15 or more ratings for
“Capabilities” and “Support/Delivery”) during the specified 18-month submission period are
included. Reviews from vendor partners or end users of companies with less than $50M in revenue
are excluded from this methodology. See the full “Voice of the Customer” methodology here.
Along with the historical peer-based perspective represented in this document, Gartner has a
related expert-led Magic Quadrant for the cloud database management systems market. For

Systems.
In the cloud database management systems market, Gartner Peer Insights has published 2,201
reviews and ratings in the 18-month period ending 31 March 2024. Figure 1 shows all eligible
vendors categorized into four quadrants based on User Interest and Adoption (x-axis) and Overall
Experience (y-axis). Within each quadrant, vendors are listed in alphabetical order. Market
averages for the axes referenced in the Voice of the Customer are calculated only from vendors
included in the document.
Vendors’ User Interest and Adoption scores incorporate three factors, each given one-third weight:
review volume, user willingness to recommend, and review market coverage across industry,
company size, and region. A vendor must meet or exceed the market average User Interest and
Adoption Score to qualify for the right-hand quadrants.
Vendors’ Overall Experience is a composite score that incorporates the Overall Rating average and
two sub-rating averages: “Capabilities” and “Support/Delivery.” The rating averages are the
arithmetic means of the stated survey questions that are on a scale of 1 (poor) to 5 (truly
exceptional). Each component is weighted in the score calculation based on the relative
importance to the end user. A vendor must meet or exceed the market average Overall Experience
Score to be positioned in an upper quadrant.
For ease of understanding, each quadrant is labeled as described below. For information on how
to evaluate vendors in each quadrant of the “Voice of the Customer” graphic, see the full
methodology here.
Vendors placed in the upper-right quadrant of the “Voice of the Customer” quadrants are
recognized with the Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice distinction, denoted with a
Customers’ Choice badge. The recognized vendors meet or exceed both the market average
Overall Experience and the market average User Interest and Adoption.
Vendors placed in the lower-right “Established” quadrant of the “Voice of the Customer” meet or
exceed the market average User Interest and Adoption but do not meet the market average
Overall Experience.
Vendors placed in the upper-left “Strong Performer” quadrant of the “Voice of the Customer” meet
or exceed the market average Overall Experience but do not meet the market average User
Interest and Adoption.
