More on GTM Perspectives C o p y r i g h t © 2 0 2 3 G o T o M a r k e t P a r t n e r s , L L C . A l l r i g h t s r e s e r v e d . www.gtmpartners.com [email protected] GTM Perspectives are third-party validated assessments of Go-to-Market Vendor Solutions that are primarily focused on how to get the most out of an investment in technology. Centered around use cases (as opposed to vendor stack ranking), these guides are intended to provide readers with a data-driven analysis of what problems the solution is intended to solve and how well it delivers on those promises. Perspectives are developed in three stages. First, we will work with the vendor to learn about their capabilities. The vendor must respond to a use-case-driven market survey, provide a demo and give us insight into their roadmap. Next, we analyze G2 data to understand how the market at large is using the solution and what they find to be most valuable. We also review feedback on the entire segment to understand how that vendor performs against its competitors or similar solutions in the use cases specified. Finally, we speak with three customers to better understand their primary use cases, get an understanding of any additional investment outside of the cost of the solution and confirm any need for additional investment in companion solutions required for the use cases to be performed. GTM Perspectives are developed at the request of our Vendor Partners, who provide us access to their customers and support our understanding of the solution we are validating. GTM Vendor Partners are held at an arm's length during the development of the perspective to ensure we produce an unbiased, data- driven review. GTM Partners is committed to improving the lives of Go-to-Market teams through the development of frameworks, guides, tools, and perspectives. DATA POWERED BY
