OneStream is a 3X Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Financial Close Solutions

Let’s face it – finance leaders are under more pressure now than ever. The expectations extend far beyond reporting on what happened, and into steering the business away from risk and towards growth. During a time of economic uncertainty, as many organizations are wrapping up their year-end close process, the pressure to deliver accurate and timely insights to drive better decisions is even more significant.

Our recent Finance 2035 report found that 75% of CEOs say their CFOs struggle to prioritize business growth due to an overwhelming volume of data and information. 

Now more than ever – Finance leaders are asking themselves, “How can my team be more efficient? How can they speed up year-end close, so they have more time to advise senior leaders on business performance?”

Our uniquely unified, AI-powered platform streamlines the financial close and reporting cycle. It’s why we are recognized as a Leader by Gartner for the third time in the recently published Gartner Magic Quadrant for Financial Close and Consolidation Solutions.

Why is this important? Read on to learn more and hear what customers have to say.

3X a Leader in Financial Close: Ability to Execute and Completeness of Vision

In the 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Financial Close and Consolidation Solutions, the Gartner analyst team evaluated the top-15 vendors in the market and positioned them into one of four quadrants – Leaders, Visionaries, Challengers, and Niche Vendors.

So how was OneStream positioned?

For the third year, OneStream was recognized as one of the Leaders in this Magic Quadrant, moving into the 2nd highest position on Ability to Execute and as one of the top-three vendors on Completeness of Vision.(See Figure 1 below.)

A Rigorous Evaluation for Solutions that Support a CFOs’ Strategic Role

With CFOs expected to take on a more strategic role, OneStream’s recently launched Finance 2035 research report revealed that digital transformation remains a top priority as business leaders and CFOs agree (74%) that unified data and data-based decision-making are now the key determinants of organization success.Seven in ten (68%) of CFOs believe the businesses that fail to invest now in modernizing their financial technologies and infrastructure, and developing skills of their teams, will not survive the next five years.

The Gartner analyst teams perform a rigorous evaluation of software vendors, collecting data via an extensive RFI response, software demonstrations, and customer references. Gartner Magic Quadrant reports are highly respected and reliable sources of information for Finance and IT professionals everywhere.They are a “go to” resource for discovering new solutions that can help them modernize and transform critical processes, such as financial close and consolidation, and help take finance further as a strategic function.

We believe OneStream was recognized as a leader based on the completeness of our platform, supporting the end-to-end financial close, consolidation, and reporting process as well as planning, budgeting, and forecasting. OneStream was recognized for our ability to address the needs of companies with revenue ranging from $300M to $10B+ that operate under multiple reporting standards and have complex ownership structures.

Other key strengths that were called out include:

1. Consolidation Capabilities: providing users with hierarchical workflow to visually understand process status and guided features to support task execution and communication during consolidation.
2. Advanced Analytics: with support for AI in use cases such as anomaly detection to notify users of outliers in reconciliation and generative AI to provide narrative explanations of financial results.
3. Product Roadmap: including plans to provide advanced journal entry management and amortization in account reconciliations.

This recognition as a Leader in Financial Close and Consolidation comes on the heels of OneStream being recognized by Gartner as a Leader in the Magic Quadrant for Financial Planning Software as well.This means customers who select OneStream gain access to market-leading capabilities in both areas through a truly unified platform.
