Key Findings & Highlights:
The Salesforce services market is a dynamic market. Current spending is limited, to ~$5.6bn. But growth potential is very high (2017-2022 CAGR of 17%).
There are two main drivers for the growth of the Salesforce services. At the core is the success of Salesforce, which has emerged from a niche (sales force automation) and has become the leader in front-office software (including CRM, e-commerce, contact center, and marketing applications) and also a platform on which clients are creating their software. Also, Salesforce is a high-growth story with its service ecosystem growing as fast.
North America is the largest geography for Salesforce services. By far, with spending in 2022 reaching $8.3bn, three times as much as in EMEA.
Systems integration is the largest area of spending.
Sales Cloud (the former CRM product) currently is the largest service market, with $2.0bn in spending in 2017. Service Cloud (contact center software) is the second largest, with $1.7bn in related service spending.
Salesforce has indicated that it would focus its vertical efforts on six large industries: financial services, manufacturing, communication & media, healthcare, and life science, retail, and public sector. These six industries represent 80% of the subscription revenues of Salesforce and its largest service opportunity.
Accenture, Salesforce, and Deloitte lead the market and challenged by IBM - Bluewolf, Capgemini, and Cognizant.
