Magic Quadrant looks at the functionality of ECM tools as both a strategic framework and technical architecture and weighs the following core platform components;
- Document Management
- Web Content Management
- Records Management
- Image-Processing Applications
- Social Content
- Content Workflow
- Extended Components
