Productiv, the leading enterprise SaaS Management Platform, today announced the company has been named a Cool Vendor in Gartner’s May 2020 Cool Vendors in the Digital Workplace report1.
According to Gartner, “Gartner’s definition of a Cool Vendor is a small company offering a technology or service that is: innovative — enables users to do things they couldn’t do before, impactful — has or will have a business impact — not just technology for its own sake, and intriguing — has caught Gartner’s interest during the past six months.”2
According to the report, “Inability to drive enablement and cultural change continues to be the primary barrier to scaling the digital workplace.” The report goes on to recommend that “Application leaders for the digital workplace who are seeking to improve enablement of digital workplace applications should: quantify and improve digital dexterity by defining, measuring and monitoring key metrics for digital workplace application enablement and engagement.1”
