Gartner Magic Quadrant 2023 – Shopware Ranking

Shopware Recognized as a Visionary in Gartner’s 2023 Magic Quadrant Report

Shopware, known as a global leader in open e-commerce platforms, has been recognized as a “Visionary” in Gartner’s 2023 Magic Quadrant for Digital Commerce. This remarkable achievement marks the fourth consecutive year Shopware has been included in this report, and the first time in the Visionaries category.

Significance of Gartner’s Reports in eCommerce

Gartner’s Magic Quadrant is an annual research evaluation that visually presents the market’s direction, maturity, and participants. Gartner’s assessment is based on two key dimensions: completeness of vision and ability to execute, aiding business leaders in making informed technology decisions.

How Shopware Stood Out

Shopware was praised for its rapid product development, including Shopware 6 and Shopware Cloud. The company also focused on omnichannel commerce, AI and automation tools, Digital Sales Rooms, and many other innovations. Key aspects contributing to this success include API-based flexible architecture, emphasis on B2B and B2C functionalities, continuous UX improvements, strong community and developer support, and global expansion strategies.

Receiving recognition from Gartner is akin to winning an Oscar for Shopware. It validates four years of dedication and highlights the dynamism and innovation embedded in Shopware’s DNA. Stefan Hamann, co-founder and co-CEO of Shopware AG, expressed satisfaction with this development and Gartner’s recognition, emphasizing the company’s readiness to continue pushing boundaries and setting new standards.

We believe this recognition reflects our commitment to driving change in the industry. Our main goal has always been to develop cutting-edge solutions for our clients, providing businesses with the tools they need to achieve excellence in the dynamic world of e-commerce. Motivated by this recognition, we are ready to work even harder, aiming not only to maintain but exceed the visionary standards set for us.

Shopware stands out not only with its current offerings but also with its ability to disrupt, transform, and lead the e-commerce industry in new directions. This sends a powerful signal to the e-commerce industry about the value of community-driven platforms, flexibility as a key element of success, and the need for global reach in e-commerce platforms.

Shopware operates mainly in the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) and has been intensively marking its presence in Poland for several years.
