Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s Enterprise Computing team said: “The Sales Automation sub-segment is the major revenue contributor to the On-demand CRM Software segment. The advantages of quick deployment and simplicity of configuration for sales administrators make it an attractive substitute for on-premise solutions. The Sales Automation sub-segment will remain one of the largest contributors to the On-demand CRM Software segment during the period of 2012-2016, representing over 40 percent of on-demand software revenue in the CRM Software market. Furthermore, the On-demand Marketing Automation sub-segment is expected to reach around US$900 million in revenue by 2016, growing at a CAGR of 24 percent during the period 2012-2016. On-demand solutions make it easy for firms to obtain new modules, sites, and functionalities, because they just need to turn on new logins or features. In addition, the need for technical support staff is eliminated, as these tasks are performed by the on-demand vendors. Help desk staff are also eliminated because of its improved usability with the help of training, built-in tutorials, and help files. Therefore, there is increased demand across various sub-segments of the On-demand CRM Software segment, which is expected to drive the growth of the On-demand CRM Software segment in the future.”
