CB Insights vs. Gartner
To really understand where tech is going, there is no comparison.
If you need to know what Oracle and IBM are doing in tech and you sit within IT, use Gartner.
If you need to understand the tech markets and companies to digitally transform your organization and actually drive growth and improve operations, we are tailor made for you.

Accelerate tech outcomes for the business — not IT
We work with business leaders to accelerate critical strategies with tech.
We know business leaders making tech decisions themselves need to move faster than ever before.
We use technology, data and proprietary info from companies to help them do that. It’s the kind of information Gartner just doesn’t have.
There are lots and lots of resources available that tell you what is happening in tech, CB Insights tells me why.

We cover 100x more tech markets and companies
Gartner only uses human analysts, so their coverage is limited.
We use machine learning and data, augmented by our industry analysts as well as by proprietary information given by companies. This is how we track dramatically more companies and technology markets than Gartner.
So we don’t have the massive blind spots Gartner does.
We write research you’ll actually read
We know you’re busy.
Our goal is to give you and your team the information you need in as concise and precise a fashion as possible. We know it’s critical that we increase the digital fluency of your organization and to do that, we have to honor your time.
The days of the 79 page single-spaced PDF Gartner research report are over.
We connect you directly with tech companies
Gartner doesn’t.
We do thousands of technology company briefings per month. Companies conduct those briefings with us because they know technology buyers like you rely on us.
If you find a company of interest, you can directly connect with them on our platform. You can’t do that on Gartner.
