Adobe CQ. Gartner's Web CMS Magic Quadrant: Oracle, Adobe, SDL, Sitecore, It's Deja Vu. It's that time again. Gartner has released its Magic Quadrant for web content management. The leaders haven't changed, with one exception. It's Still a Who's Who of WCM I wish I could show you the magic quadrant diagram to give the picture in a quick snapshot, but I can't.
