The growing organization preference for rich media content to promote brands and products is another major factor expected to impact the market growth positively. Cloud-based digital asset management vendors that provide cost-effective solutions also play a crucial role in instigating demand.

Type Insights

Digital asset management has progressively been adopted by users in various industries to store and save files to finish work on the real-time basis. The developments in DAM technology are encouraging organizations to adopt these solutions as well as services for collaboration, management, digital storage, and asset tracking. Moreover, DAM assists the user in making better branding as well as marketing strategies, and are thus being increasingly adopted for social media integration by several users. For instance, recently Hootsuite, a social media management tool developer selected MediaValet along with Google Drive, Dropbox, WebDAM, and others as their initial digital asset repository integration partners.

In 2015, the solutions segment captured a significant share and is expected to dominate the market over the forecast period. There has been an increase in the adoption of DAM solutions by marketing companies as they encourage instant information access through collaborative digital workflows, thereby increasing the organizational productivity. However, the segment is expected to witness maturity over the forecast period ascribed to the higher adoption, which will result in the services segment to gain traction in the next nine years.

Deployment Insights

The on-premise deployment was the largest segment, accounting for over 50% of the total revenue in 2015. However, this deployment method is costly and requires increasing storage requirements, which drives the need for high-end IT infrastructure, subsequently resulting in high cost. Owing to this, the segment is anticipated to witness sluggish growth in comparison to the cloud deployment over the next nine years.

The cloud-based deployment segment accounted for a considerable share in 2015 and is expected to witness a healthy demand over the forecast period, owing to the shift from on-premise to Software-as-a-Service (SaaS). It has recently been observed that many vendors including Oracle, EMC, IBM have started moving from on-premise to cloud that provides intuitive services, mobile accessibility, and drag-and-drop functionality. Since cloud-based solutions offer low-cost options and rapid deployment of services, they are increasingly being adopted by end-users as they help reduce the total cost of operation.

Enterprise Size Insights

SMEs held over 40% of the total revenue share in 2015, and the segment is expected to experience growth at a CAGR exceeding 10% over the forecast period. This growth is due to its capacity to improve collaborative work processes across various departmental functions in an organization, resulting in increasing adoption over the predicted period.

Small and Medium-sized Businesses (SMBs) rely on DAM progressively to run their business. The increasing proliferation of cloud-based solutions is expected to impel the product demand among SMEs. Moreover, the increasing awareness about the advantages they offer over conventional content management solutions is anticipated to increase their adoption among SMEs in the coming years.

Application Insights

The marketing segment is anticipated to witness the fastest growth as it plays an important role in assisting sales personnel with the real-time access to the assets of sales. Sales & marketing is one of the sectors in which digital asset management is being rigorously adopted as it helps in maintaining and upholding the product and service brand image.

Photography/Graphics and designing is another segment that uses the asset management to secure designs, access files, as well as share and store photos. The photography sub-segment is anticipated to gain traction over the coming years.

End-use Insights

The media & entertainment sector was the largest end-use segment, accounting for over 20% share in 2015. The demand for visual content and improvement in video quality have increased the creation of content in the media and entertainment sector, subsequently driving growth.

The media & entertainment sector currently depends on the smooth functioning and installation of DAM as it helps in managing, recollecting, and saving large volumes of audios, images, videos, and other files. Managing these digital assets has become easier with DAM solutions, thereby making them an important part of the industry.

Regional Insights

North America dominated the market accounting for over 25% of the total market share in 2015. This growth is attributed to the pervasive evolution of social media in the region. The generation of huge amounts of content due to social media has led marketers to adopt DAM in order to reach out to a large audience in the shortest time possible.

The demand for analytics is expected to gain traction in North America. This is because vendors are emphasizing on covering DAM solutions and analytics to offer customized tools to consumers, thereby stiffening the competition in the market.

Although North America emerged as a market leader; Asia Pacific is expected to witness the fastest growth over the forecast period at a CAGR of over 12%. The region offers huge opportunities for growth on account of the rising adoption of cloud technology and digital technology among small & medium enterprises as well as large enterprises to improve employee productivity.
