Liferay was named a Visionary for the completeness of vision exhibited in its product strategy and development of its flagship product as well as for its responsiveness to constantly evolving markets and ability to deliver technology that meets real business needs.

Notably, Liferay was one of only two open source providers that met Gartner's inclusion criteria, having successfully monetized on its portal initiatives and achieving what Gartner deemed as some of the best penetration into the enterprise market by an open source product.

Press Release

Since 2006, Liferay Portal has been named to the EContent 100, EContent magazine’s list of the 100 most influential and innovative companies in the digital content industry.

“It's long been commonplace to find open-source portals that rival or better their commercial counterparts in features and capabilities. And for a few years now, open-source portals have featured intuitive and flexible browser-based administration interfaces.

All of the above is true for the open-source Liferay Portal, but its browser-based administration and content creation interface goes much further, providing in-depth interactivity and capabilities that one usually finds only in desktop applications—providing this breadth of capabilities across all current-generation Web browsers.”

InfoWorld has named Liferay Portal the "Best Open Source Portal" on the market.

"Putting aside other standards, which our four portal finalists all follow, the compelling argument for winner Liferay Portal can be summed up by mentioning usability, architecture, security, integration, and portlets. Liferay's intuitive user experience, featuring drag-and-drop portlet arrangement and management, is tops."
