The Forrester Wave™: Infrastructure Outsourcing Services, Q3 2026
Vendors or products added in this year’s report may indicate a change in the market, change in evaluation criteria, or change of focus by the vendor.
Vendors or products dropped from one year to the next may indicate a change in the market, change in evaluation criteria, or change of focus by the vendor.
The Forrester Wave evaluation is an assessment of the top vendors in the market; it doesn't represent the entire vendor landscape. Infrastructure outsourcing services customers may be familiar with or considering the service providers listed in the Other Notable Vendors section, which were not evaluated in this report.
A: Vendors may appear one year and not the next due to changes in their business model, scale, scope, portfolio alignment with evaluation criteria, market focus, or strategic direction. Some vendors may be dropped because they no longer meet inclusion criteria, have merged with other companies, have narrowed their service offerings, or have shifted their focus away from the evaluated market segment. New vendors may be added as they gain market presence, meet inclusion criteria, or become notable considerations for enterprise clients.
