We publish four categories of reports:
- Executive Briefs are short memos that summarize and analyze industry issues.
- Research Reports are designed to be read and understood quickly. The focus is on the information that executives and project teams need: market data, peer metrics, best practices, and trend analysis.
- Novarica Market Navigator™ Reports are solution market overviews, which introduce the major vendors in solution markets, containing information on customer bases, support teams and vendor size, as well as technical information.
- Vendor Analysis Reports focus on individual solution offerings. Novarica Vendor Analysis Reports are designed for buyers, with "vendor speak" ruthlessly excised; researched primarily from buyers, through extensive interviews with current users; and sold only to buyers, and marked as confidential information.
