Our Methodology

Our analysts gather product data through structured hands-on evaluations, API testing, vendor briefings, end-user interviews, and enterprise practitioner panels. We never rely solely on vendor-provided information — all claims are independently tested.

Every vendor and product is scored across 40+ dimensions spanning technical capability, roadmap credibility, pricing transparency, support quality, security posture, and enterprise readiness. All dimension weights are documented and available to clients.

Every report undergoes structured peer review by a senior analyst and calibration against our longitudinal vendor performance database. Historical accuracy of assessments is tracked and published annually.

Intelligence is distilled into concise, action-oriented formats — from rapid vendor snapshots (2-4 pages) to full strategic reports with scenario modelling (50-90 pages). All formats are structured for executive consumption, not analyst gratification.

Aeris Research does not accept vendor sponsorship, paid placement, or consulting fees from companies it covers in research. Analysts are prohibited from holding financial positions in covered companies. Our complete independence policy is available on request.
