Research methodology

Where our evidence comes from, and how we weigh it.

Sources we use

We synthesise independent practitioner evaluations, published vendor documentation, peer-review sites (such as G2, Gartner Peer Insights and TrustRadius as cited by our sources), and — over time — anonymised outcomes from real finance transformations. Every source is recorded with its publisher and date.

How sources are weighted

• Independence. Independent, practitioner-led evaluations carry more weight than vendor-authored material.
• Corroboration. Agreement across two or more independent sources lifts a claim to high confidence.
• Recency. Newer evidence supersedes older evidence; each source carries its date.
• Specificity. Evidence tied to a concrete capability outweighs general brand sentiment.

What we don't do

We do not accept payment to include, rank or rate a vendor. We do not publish claims we cannot attribute. We do not present a single vendor blog post as if it were independent verification.

Coverage

dilynx is deliberately deep before broad. We cover the financial close and adjacent capabilities today and expand cluster by cluster — each new area held to the same sourcing bar.
