The 2023 global report provides a detailed, fact-based comparison of the most prominent workplace systems integrators on the market using in-depth analysis and customer insight.
This year, Ricoh was cited as achieving a “market-leading score” for its workplace management systems capabilities.

According to Verdantix, “Ricoh’s suite of workplace offerings and adjacent services makes it well-positioned to provide solutions and end-to-end services to clients undergoing workplace transformation projects.”
The report also highlights Ricoh’s continued investment in the ongoing development of its technology so that it “can evolve to meet customer demands” by “investing in new ways to leverage advanced technology such as AI, to drive automation and deliver new services”. For example, with its workspace experience platform, RICOH Spaces, “it is investigating how Generative AI can provide intelligent suggestions and support within the tool”.
Ricoh was also noted for its “tailorable ongoing support services for clients” where it achieved “above-average scores for all support services areas, spanning workplace hardware and connectivity; real estate and workplace platforms; and point solutions”. This is supported by Ricoh’s “massive and distributed workforce which enables it to provide 24/7 multi-channel, multilingual, on-demand support services”.
