Market Overview:
The global SME cloud market is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for cloud-based services by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Additionally, the growing trend of BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) is also contributing to the growth of this market. The SaaS segment is expected to account for the largest share of the global SME cloud market in 2018. This segment is projected to grow at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period.
Product Definition:
Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are businesses with fewer than 250 employees. SMEs have long been the backbone of the global economy, accounting for more than 60% of all jobs in developed countries. They also account for nearly half of private sector GDP in those countries. In recent years, SMEs have been using cloud computing services to become more productive and efficient. Cloud computing is a model for enabling ubiquitous, convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services).
SaaS:
Software as a Service (SaaS) is a model that provides cloud-based solutions for applications ranging from email to business process automation. SaaS eliminates the need for users to manage and purchase additional software, hardware, and infrastructure. In addition, it offers benefits such as increased productivity of the end-users due to reduced time spent on managing IT resources and low capital investment owing to zero upfront costs.
IaaS:
IaaS (Infrastructure-as-a-Service) is a cloud service model that provides shared hardware resources, such as processing power, memory and storage space. It is an on-demand service model that allows users to lease physical devices from providers in an attempt to reduce the cost of purchasing these devices.
Application Insights:
The small-sized enterprise segment accounted for the largest revenue share of over 60% in 2017. The growth can be attributed to the increasing penetration of cloud computing services among SMEs owing to their preference towards cost-effective IT solutions and adoption of social media platforms, which has resulted in increased awareness about online business resources. As a result, companies are shifting their operations onto the internet from physical offices owing to reduced costs associated with it.
The medium-sized enterprise segment is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period as they too prefer cost-efficient IT solutions but at a larger scale than that of small and large enterprises do respectively. Moreover, these organizations require advanced security features along with seamless management capabilities for effective use of cloud computing services thereby driving its demand among medium sized enterprises as well as large ones across various regions globally.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The growth can be attributed to the presence of a large number of small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the region. According to a study by Forrester Research, Inc., North America accounted for more than 60% share of all SMEs globally in 2016. Moreover, growing adoption of cloud services among SMEs is also expected to drive regional market growth over the forecast period.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing investments by various governments and organizations for developing digital infrastructure within their countries as well as across regions.
Growth Factors:
- Increased affordability of cloud-based services
- Proliferation of mobile devices and apps that enable anytime, anywhere access to data and applications
- Greater awareness and acceptance of cloud-based solutions by businesses of all sizes
- Emergence of new, innovative cloud-based solutions that address specific business needs
- Continued expansion of global broadband networks and availability of high-speed Internet access
