Gartner, Meta deal in need of analysis – report

19
Knowledge Capital Group (KCG) has pulled a fast one on the Meta Group and Gartner by using their own analyst logic against them. The advisory firm has warned customers to be very wary of Gartner’s proposed $162m buy of Meta, saying the companies have not done a good job of communicating what will happen should the acquisition go through. In short, both research firms have failed to live up to the standards they set for IT vendors, and customers should avoid them.
