| Geneva, Switzerland, October 31, 2001 - Ever since the creation of Gartner's Magic Quadrant* for Integrated Document Archive and Retrieval Systems (IDARS) in 1997, RSD has been in the leader quadrant position. In Gartner’s 2001 IDARS Magic Quadrant (Sept. 6th 2001), RSD is once again positioned in the leader’s quadrant. According to Gartner, “leaders are performing well today, have a clear vision of market direction and are actively building competencies to sustain their leadership position in the market”.
Gartner designates products under IDARS as a "consolidated system for storage, access, management, distribution and viewing of data that is often printstream" and explains that "leading uses of IDARS include mission-critical customer service support, e-bill presentment, management and distribution of report data and long-term archiving of historical data”.
These are precisely RSD's strategic directives and the reason for the company's on-going leadership position in the IDARS market.
"We are proud to see that our strategy to focus exclusively on the evolution of our core competence, i.e., distribution, archival and retrieval of documents indeed ensures our expertise in these domains" says Louis-Pierre ROGER, RSD President. "Our proven record of achievement in all industrial sectors is an illustration of our technological and implementation know-how. In addition, the careful integration of state-of-the-art technology into our solutions is an integral part of our company culture. With over 40% of our operating budget allocated for research and development, we can continuously offer our customers optimized products."

The Magic Quadrant is Gartner, Inc.’s opinion and is an analytical representation of a marketplace at and for a specific time period. It measures vendors against Gartner defined criteria for a marketplace. The positioning of vendors within a Magic Quadrant is based on the complex interplay of many factors. Gartner does not advise enterprises to select only those firms in the “Leaders” quadrant. In some situations, firms in the Visionary, Challenger, or Niche Player quadrants may be the right matches for an enterprise's requirements. Well-informed vendor selection decisions should rely on more than a Magic Quadrant.
