MuleSoft Named a Leader in Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for API Management

Salesforce, the #1 AI CRM, today announced that Gartner Inc. has once again named MuleSoft a Leader in the 2023 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for API Management. This year’s placement marks the eighth consecutive year MuleSoft has been recognized as a Leader. 

Why it’s important: According to Gartner, API management technologies and practices are critically important for organizations to accelerate growth, improve connectivity, and drive and scale digitalization efforts1.

Innovation in action: MuleSoft addresses API sprawl with API Management on Anypoint Platform, a collection of full lifecycle API management capabilities to build, discover, govern, and manage any API built and deployed anywhere. The tool:

  • Helps IT teams speed up application and automation delivery, gain consistent security and quality of their APIs, modernize their architecture, and create vibrant API ecosystems. 
  • Empowers developers to leverage composability and re-use any API built across any environment. They can adapt any architectural pattern to manage APIs anywhere they reside — on-premise, hybrid, or in the cloud.  

MuleSoft also helps customers achieve their digitalization efforts with:

  • Anypoint API Experience Hub, which empowers users to build, grow, and engage ecosystems for their APIs within minutes with easy-to-use templates to productize, publish, and govern APIs built across any technology or platform.
  • Anypoint API Governance, which provides end-to-end API governance support from design to implementation. This ensures all enterprise APIs comply with industry regulations and internal policies without adding more steps to development.
  • Anypoint Flex Gateway, which manages and secures any API while delivering the performance required for the most demanding applications and providing enterprise security and manageability across any environment.

The Salesforce perspective: “Businesses use MuleSoft because our powerful platform helps them accelerate project delivery with enterprise-level security and comprehensive governance. We continue to advance our vision to make API Management universal and through it bring our customers the benefits of greater visibility, consistent governance, flexible control, and improved engagement across all their API initiatives.” – Param Kahlon, EVP, Automation and Integration, Salesforce

MuleSoft provides a unified platform to help us create and manage APIs to deliver a connected experience.” – Makhosi Modise, Head of Centre for Enablement & API Marketplace, Standard Bank
