Mining Software: Global Mine Site Survey of Investment Status and Supplier Choice, 2025

Summary

GlobalData’s latest mine-site technology adoption survey shows a higher degree of investment in mine planning & scheduling software versus mine management software. Some 61% had already fully implemented or considerably invested in the former, while 47% had done so for mine management software

When comparing the majors to the medium and smaller miners, the majors had invested to a greater extent, although the difference was smaller for mine planning software. However, when it came to expectations for investment in the next two years, there was a lower share of majors to small/medium-sized miners who were expecting to invest more, across both planning and management software.

Across the 842 operating mines tracked where mine planning and management software providers were known, the most popular suppliers were Datamine, Dassault Systemes and Autodesk. Overall, 44% of mines use Datamine (including Minemax and Snowden Optira), while 36% use Dassault Systemes and 24% use Autodesk. Deswik, Maptek, Bentley Systems and Hexagon came close behind from fourth to seventh, all present at 20% or more of mines covered.

Datamine was the leading player across Africa & the Middle East; Europe & FSU and North and South America. Dassault Systemes was leader in Asia, while Maptek was the leader in Australasia.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
