Description

This IDC study summarizes the 2024 performance and market forecast for 2025–2029 of the Japan digital business (DB) professional services market, categorized into five types of service segments across two areas: business services and IT services. The DB professional services market in 2024 achieved high growth, driven by active demand from Japan companies for DB transformation, as well as an increase in projects aimed at AI adaptation, which has become essential for realizing this transformation. IDC predicts that high growth will continue in all five service segments beyond 2024.Takuya Uemura, senior research manager of Software and Services at IDC Japan, says, "In the Japan digital business professional services market, in addition to the expansion of demand for IT modernization involving business process transformation to the mainstream among large enterprises, support for AI adaptation toward transformation is driving market growth. From a long-term perspective, service vendors need to capture such demand while proceeding with the reconstruction of professional service delivery models and business models."This is the English translation of the Japanese document IDC #JPJ52157225.

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.
