How to read maturity and confidence
Maturity · how much it covers
- core
- What the product is built around; the capability is covered end to end.
- strong
- Covered well, with a few gaps a buyer would notice.
- partial
- Covers part of the capability; expect to pair it with something else.
- emerging
- New or thin; on the roadmap more than in the product.
Confidence · how well it is evidenced
- Evidence confidence: high
- The vendor's own documentation describes this module doing it.
- Evidence confidence: medium
- Documented, but how far it reaches into the capability is our reading.
- Evidence confidence: low
- Our judgment; we found no public page that confirms it.
