Gartner lists Simplifier as a “Representative Vendor”

Würzburg, September 15, 2022 – Simplifier is one of the German vendors included in the Gartner® “Market Guide for Multiexperience Development Platforms”. For Simplifier, the inclusion not only means that the Würzburg-based low-code provider is one of the 28 globally representative vendors in the field of Multi-Experience Development Platforms (MXDP), but also confirms the steadily growing awareness and distribution of the platform of the same name.

Gartner is an international research and advisory company. Their Market Guide reports typically describe the characteristics of representative vendors in the market to provide further insight into the market itself. “We see the inclusion in the Market Guide as another important step in our growth plan, which helps us to make our platform better known and confirms that our platform easily stands up to comparison with large, international providers. This makes us proud and spurs us on,” explains Florian Rühl, CSO & CEO at Simplifier.

Importance of Multi Experience Development Platforms (MXDP)

According to Gartner, “Software engineering teams often use a variety of disjointed front-end development tools and back-end approaches to develop separate apps for different devices and touchpoints. This siloed approach to app development is difficult to scale and results in an inconsistent user experience (UX).”

“An MXDP is a well thought-out, integrated set of front-end development tools and ‘back-end for front-end’ (BFF) functions.”

The report continues: “Multiexperience development platforms (MXDPs) and low-code application platforms (LCAPs) are popular technologies for enterprise application development. Gartner forecasts that the MXDP market will reach $4.7 billion by 2025, with a compound annual growth rate of 19.5% from 2020 to 2025, while the LCAP market will reach $14.4 billion, with a growth rate of 26.4%.”

Simplifier fulfills the criteria of both platform types equally: “The importance of multi-experience development platforms (MXDP) – especially low-code-based ones – can no longer be denied and will continue to grow rapidly in the coming years. That is why we are continuously developing our platform – in collaboration with our customers and partners. Because we don’t just want to offer a product, we always want to impress our customers with state-of-the-art technology,” says Christopher Bouveret, CIO at Simplifier.

“We are convinced that simplifying the creation and use of software is the basis for further technological progress and ultimately solves the challenges of digitalization,” adds Bouveret.

Focus on partnership

Simplifier attaches great importance to the quality of its own platform. This is why the low-code provider focuses on the continuous further development and improvement of its own product. To achieve this, the company relies not only on the know-how of its own experts, but in particular on constant exchange and close cooperation with customers and partners. With this partnership-based approach, Simplifier has already won over customers such as Rolls-Royce Power Systems, Viessmann and SAERTEX.

“For us, the partnership at eye level was the most important argument for choosing Simplifier. Certainly, the technical implementation of our use case would also have been successful with one of the other 27 providers. However, Simplifier not only offers us the necessary technical basis, but also the commitment, motivation and hands-on mentality, and these make the decisive difference.
