We simplify the software search

We connect buyers to businesses that have the right software solutions for their needs and ensure that organizations achieve the most return on their investments.

Our story

We saw a need

We were formed out of the need to help technology buyers make sense of the vast, global software market. Gartner’s historic position as a trusted technology consultant and advisor serves as the foundation of Digital Markets’ guidance to small business technology buyers, ensuring that they benefit from credible information and feedback specifically tailored to their unique needs.

That gave us an idea

Gartner’s trusted objectivity, independence and buyer-focused research helps bridge the gap between small-to-midsize business buyers and the software vendors eager to reach that audience.

Now it’s our mission

By acquiring Capterra, GetApp and Software Advice, we now equip the millions of buyers who visit these sites every month with the unbiased information they need to make great purchasing decisions. These platforms provide every vendor — whether they pay us or not — a way to connect with that buying audience. By virtue of our industrywide buyer insights, we also help software companies learn how to efficiently attract and engage customers, build brand advocates and grow revenue.
