Ricoh Positioned in 2022 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Outsourced Digital Workplace Services Worldwide

Ricoh Co. Ltd. has announced it has been positioned by Gartner Inc. in its Magic Quadrant for Outsourced Digital Workplace Services (ODWS) Worldwide, 2022 report. Ricoh is one of only 17 companies from around the world positioned within this Magic Quadrant.

Gartner defines ODWS as the market for managed workplace services that deliver the services, tools and capabilities to help organizations advance their digital workplace strategies.

  • Remote support to end users (formerly service desk)
  • End-user device support (formerly field services support), including support for desktops, laptops,
    mobile devices, ODWS IoTs, peripheral vending, smart lockers, support kiosks and augmented reality (AR)-based support
  • PC provisioning for both physical and virtual devices (PCaaS, DaaS and VDI)
  • UX-centric services and experience level agreements (XLAs)
  • Use of self-healing analytics and AI-based automation
  • Services to transform the experience of users and enhance business outcomes
