The 2020 Gartner Magic Quadrant for IT Service Management (ITSM) Tools is now available. We believe that due to our vision and our proven ability to execute, BMC was named a Leader for the seventh year in a row!
IT service support management tools are vital for infrastructure and operations organizations to manage support and delivery of IT services. New this year was the addition of the Agile and DevOps support as a Use Case category “in response to digital disruption.” Along with the recently introduced AITSM critical capability category last year, we believe, this year’s report truly measures, analyzes and scores the various modern ITSM solutions.
In the 2020 Magic Quadrant report, Gartner provides detailed evaluations of 11 vendors. BMC Software is named as a Leader for the seventh year in a row. Our position is based on the ability to execute and completeness of vision.
Here’s a snapshot of the quadrant.

Gartner also includes a complimentary study for more in-depth analysis and detailed use cases, and measures each solution against 13 of Critical Capabilities, 3 maturity I&O maturity Use Cases and (as mentioned above) the new agile and DevOps support case to determine ITSM excellence.
BMC Helix ITSM received the highest score in both the Advanced-Maturity I&O Use Case (3.82/5) and the inaugural new Agile and DevOps Support Use Case (3.66/5). Gartner defines Advanced ITSM tools as having “a full range of ITSM capabilities, provide advanced workflow support, and, increasingly, ITSM and collaboration capabilities. They also provide broad ITOM functionality natively or integrate with advanced third-party ITOM solutions.”
