Worldwide Software as a Service and Cloud Software Market Shares, 2021: Automation Engine of Digital Business

This IDC study examines the SaaS and cloud software market in 2021 and includes a list of the top 100 cloud software vendors by revenue. "It was another record-breaking year for SaaS as each of the leading software providers increased investments in advanced capabilities and platforms. The top 20 providers accounted for 48.9% of the SaaS and cloud software market in 2021. The percentage was almost unchanged from 2020. The long tail of thousands of providers accounted for 63% of the total cloud software market, as virtually every software provider reported an increase in the percentage of revenue coming from SaaS," said Frank Della Rosa, vice president, SaaS, Business Platforms, and Industry Clouds, IDC.

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.
