Aeris delivers analyst-grade technology research without the conflicts. AI, cloud, cybersecurity, SaaS, fintech — scored against real criteria, tested in real environments.
Each sector has dedicated analysts, a proprietary vendor database, and 5+ years of longitudinal tracking.
The security vendor market is converging. Our 72-page analysis maps 140+ vendors across endpoint, cloud, identity, and SIEM categories — scoring consolidation pressure, platform maturity, and the strategic implications for enterprise security buyers navigating a rapidly shrinking field.
Our annual benchmark of enterprise AI adoption reveals a widening gap between AI leaders and laggards — and identifies the structural risks that cause 64% of deployments to underperform expectations.
The cybersecurity vendor market is consolidating rapidly. Our analysis of 42 platform vendors identifies the emerging winners, the casualties, and what the shift to platform architectures means for enterprise security buyers.
Most technology analyst firms have vendor relationships that compromise their ratings. We don't. Our independence isn't a marketing claim — it's enforced by structure. No vendor pays us. No placement is for sale.
No paid placements, no vendor briefings that influence scores. Every rating is earned, not purchased.
Every tool we rate has been tested by our analysts in real enterprise production environments.
Our 40+ dimension methodology is fully documented. Clients see every weight and assumption.
We track vendors over multi-year cycles — our assessments reflect actual execution, not just roadmaps.
300+ active CIOs, CTOs, and security leaders validate our findings through structured panels.
