Lenovo Consolidates Leaders of PC Market- Gartner Magic Quadrant

Lenovo, the third-largest computer maker worldwide by volume, has continued its rise to the top with a superlative performance at the 2013 Gartner Magic Quadrant – a highly influential study for Enterprise Desktop and Notebook PCs.

Lenovo has consistently, since 2006, according to the report, been improving its market shares against the other leaders in the market, Dell and HP.

However, the 2013 Gartner lists Lenovo ahead of both Dell and HP emerging the world’s largest personal computer vendor.

This performance is a direct result of the combination of world-class quality products, service and excellent after sales support.

Furthermore, Lenovo is driven by a strategic vision that stubbornly delivers short run and long term benefits to customers, said Christian Teismann, vice president, Global Account Business.

Teismann gave credit for the success to the unique and effective team work in the Lenovo organization from field and inside sales, to operations, supply chain, service and product units.

He noted that everyone in the organization should be incredibly proud of the 2013 performance.

He revealed that the Gartner Magic Quadrant research assesses PC suppliers along two important criteria – the first is “completeness of vision”, which measures the understanding of key users need and market trends, while also assessing if the supplier has a clear cut program for customer satisfaction.

The second is ‘ability to execute’ which focuses on the vendors’ capacity to support customers from order to end of product life and their pedigree in delivering consistently on commitments.
Teismann observed that for the first time ever, Lenovo is positioned significantly above other competitors in ‘ability to execute’ and ‘completeness of vision’ suggesting that the Lenovo strategy of “Protect and Attack” adds exceptional value to clients’ computing and management processes.
