[147 Pages Report] MarketsandMarkets projects the event management software market to grow from USD 5.7 billion in 2019 to USD 11.4 billion by 2024, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 15.0% during the forecast period. Major factors expected to drive the growth of the event management software market include rising demand for event automation among marketers, the growing use of social media for event marketing, the rising demand to capture actionable business insights from events, and increasing adoption of advanced data analytics solutions.
With the growing competition in the global market, marketers are continually striving to harness data for getting actionable insights. The event management software enables marketers to leverage the benefits of real-time data for extracting actionable business insights from events required to drive organizational growth. To utilize data and business insights, the event management software needs to be integrated with organizations’ various systems, including Customer Relationship Management (CRM), marketing automation software, collaboration platforms, payment gateways, and accounting software. It enables organizations to align the entire life cycle of their events with their business goals, thereby facilitating Chief Marketing Officers (CMOs) with key business insights from the data gathered through various business events. Moreover, it helps organizations capture and analyze attendees’ behavior, which helps them make effective business decisions.
Organizations find it difficult to integrate the event management software with r key business systems. An organizations’ business information is accessed, modified, updated, and managed simultaneously using various processes and systems. To avoid system conflicts, enterprises need to ensure information consistency across all their systems. Integration issues lead to data silos, thereby reducing organizations’ capability to analyze the business data and gain valuable insights.
The on-premises deployment type refers to the installation of the event management software on the premises of an organization rather than at a remote facility. On-premises solutions are delivered with a one-time licensing fee, along with a service agreement. Furthermore, deployment of the solution requires huge infrastructure and a personal data center, which is affordable only for large organizations. Hence, SMEs often face the dilemma of choosing between the hosted and on-premises solutions. In spite of its advantages, such as control over system & data, and dedicated staff for maintenance & support, the on-premises deployment type has various drawbacks, which include high deployment costs and good infrastructure requirements that are not always possible for every organization. The growth of the on-premises deployment type is expected to be affected by the rapid development of cloud computing solutions.
Support and maintenance services are crucial, as they directly deal with customer satisfaction and issues. Every software vendor has a dedicated support team to serve the customers. Support, software maintenance, customer portal, post-deployment assistance, and client testimonials are some of the services provided under the support and maintenance segment. To derive consistent customer satisfaction, service providers regularly focus on enhancing their product knowledge base by receiving feedbacks through interviews and surveys. These services also provide a single point of contact who would help solve customer issues quickly. The customer portal is another helping aid that offers technical tips and software updates to customer forums.
North America consists of developed countries, such as the US and Canada. This region is open to the adoption of new and emerging technologies. Moreover, its strong financial position enables it to invest heavily in the adoption of the latest and leading tools & technologies for ensuring effective business operations. Such advantages help organizations in this region gain a competitive edge. North America has the first-mover advantage in the adoption of new technologies, such as smartphones and cloud platforms. North America has the headquarters of many large enterprises and is host to various international events. Enterprises are willingly investing in North America. The factors expected to drive the growth of the event management software market in North America are the stable economy, technological enhancements, and advanced infrastructure.
