PTC (NASDAQ: PTC) has been named Best-in-Class for IoT Platforms for Rapid Deployment by the CXP Group (BARC, le CXP, PAC).

[Companies are evaluated based on several criteria that can be classified into two main categories, Competence and Relative Market Strength.] The evaluation provides a neutral, comprehensive, and detailed presentation of the perceived strengths and weaknesses of 30 providers in direct comparison with competitors. Across all four segments, only six companies were ranked as Best-in-Class: PTC, Bosch Software Innovations, GE Digital, IBM, Microsoft, and SAP.

PAC ranked PTC highest in Competence in the Best-in-Class quadrant, citing its ThingWorx® platform as enabling the quick and easy creation of IoT applications with focus on the rapid and flexible visualization of data for non-IT users.
