India enterprise software mkt grew to $2.5 bn in 2010: Gartner
New Delhi (PTI) - The Indian enterprise software
market showed broad growth and recovery in 2010, with total
software revenue increasing 16.3 per cent to total USD 2.5
billion, according to research firm Gartner.
In 2009, enterprise software revenue in India grew just
4.2 per cent to USD 2.1 billion, Gartner said in a statement.
"In 2010, major software vendors expanded their product
portfolios, acquired companies where appropriate to their
plans and reached deeper into emerging markets, including
India," Gartner Principal Research Analyst Asheesh Raina said.
The year represented a return to solid footing as the
India market expanded in terms of revenue and maturity, Raina
added.
Microsoft maintained its numero uno position as it
increased its enterprise software revenue market share in
India to 28 per cent in 2010.
Its results were enhanced in 2010 by the broader adoption
of new releases of the Windows 7 operating system and
Microsoft Office 2010 productivity software.
IBM (with a 13.9 per cent market share) maintained its No
2 ranking in 2010. It could have become the No 1 enterprise
software vendor if consumer sales of Microsoft's office and
operating systems are not taken into account. IBM sells only
to enterprises and partners.
IBM's software revenue grew more than 15.3 per cent in
2010, mainly due to its WebSphere, Tivoli, Information
Management, Operating Systems and Rational brands.
"IBM expanded dramatically in 2010 into the applications
segment with a focus on e-commerce, marketing and sales with
more than 20 industry solution frameworks as its "smarter
planet" go-to-market strategy evolves," Gartner said.
Oracle, SAP and EMC followed behind in the tally with
11.5 per cent, 8.3 per cent and 2.4 per cent market shares,
respectively.
Gartner said the enterprise software vendor landscape
continues to change as mergers and acquisitions (M&As) are
expected to continue.
This is because vendors and service providers look to
expand their customer bases, add unique features aligned to a
vertical-market or technology function and improve overall
market presence.
