CTRM Vendor Perceptions 2018 A ComTechAdvisory Report Risk Management When asked who the leader was for risk management, about a third of the respondents couldn’t identify one. Of those that did, 51% believed ION OpenLink was the leader in the category, well ahead of runner-up Allegro with about 13%. Other vendors mentioned as leaders in- cluded ION Aspect, ION, SAP, FIS, Brady PLC, Amphora, Cubelogic, Beacon, Lacima, Oracle and Enuit. Compared to the results from the 2016 vendor perceptions survey, ION Openlink has extended its perceived leadership posi- tion substantially over the last couple of years. However, given Allegro’s recent acquisition of risk analytics vendor FEA, it will be interesting to see the impact of that deal in this category in future surveys. Commodity Management The respondents were largely undecided about leader- ship in commodity management, with 53% saying they did not know a leader in the category. Of those that named a leader, ION Openlink was most often mentioned (34%), followed by SAP with 15% of the respondents naming that firm as the leader. Others noted include ION, ION TriplePoint, Eka, Allegro, Brady PLC, Amphora, Pioneer and ION Aspect. © Commodity Technology Advisory LLC, 2018, All Rights Reserved. 16
