MarketingPilot, the leading mid-market provider of marketing software for corporations and advertising agencies, today announced it has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the Niche quadrant of the “Magic Quadrant for Marketing Resource Management (MRM), published February 19, 2010 by Kimberly Collins.” MarketingPilot is the most popular and widely used marketing resource management system available with more than 500 installations worldwide. MarketingPilot provides a strong set of MRM capabilities for marketers in workflow, planning, campaign management, digital asset management, budgeting and other key areas.

Gartner predicts growth in the MRM market over the next year, citing “Interest in MRM continued to grow with unprecedented interest in 2009. This dramatic trend was driven by several factors, including an increased focus on marketing costs and the financial management of marketing, the difficulty justifying marketing budgets, the desire to measure all marketing initiatives, the need to achieve a faster time to market, reduced resources (budget and people), the focus on reducing marketing waste and the need to balance corporate versus local marketing control.”
