§ The result
Cornerstone OnDemand leads Arena Analytics on all 7 criteria.
Under rubric v1.0, Cornerstone OnDemand (ATS-integrated) opens a 24-point lead on Arena Analytics (Screening), 56 to 32. Arena Analytics leads none of the 7 criteria, and Cornerstone OnDemand is ahead on 3 of them by 20 raw points or more, Article 11 Technical Documentation among them. The advantage Cornerstone OnDemand holds is spread out: Article 11 Technical Documentation is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing (Arena Analytics 30, Cornerstone OnDemand 72, 20% weight), yet it supplies only 34% of the weighted points Cornerstone OnDemand gains across the 7 criteria it leads.
