§ The result
SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting leads Emmersion on all 7 criteria.
SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting scores 53 and Emmersion 44 under rubric v1.0, a 9-point gap across the ATS-integrated and Assessment cohorts. SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting is ahead of Emmersion on all 7 criteria but on none of them by as much as 20 raw points, the closest being Post-Market Monitoring at Emmersion 38 to SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting 40. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Emmersion 57, SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting 70, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 31% of the weighted advantage SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting holds across the 7 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -8.5 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 8.5 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -9 beside that -8.5.
