IDC最近发布的《2019下半年中国企业级应用软件市场跟踪调研报告》中显示，2019年中国企业级应用软件市场规模达到56亿美元，同比增长22.7%。主要的驱动力来自于云计算的快速发展以及企业数字化转型的需求，随着云计算的快速发展，企业对企业级应用软件即服务（SaaS）的接受程度也在大幅提高，特别是中型企业；因此，云计算是未来中国企业级应用软件市场发展的主要推动力。本报告从中国宏观经济影响因素开始，逐步为读者分析中国企业级应用软件市场的未来发展趋势以及主要的竞争格局。
在本报告中，IDC将中国企业级应用软件分为两大部分，一部分是客户关系管理应用软件（CRM），其中包括销售自动化管理应用（SFA）、事件营销管理应用（MC）、客服管理、数字化商务以及广告营销等应用；另一部分是企业级资源管理应用软件（ERP），其中包括财务应用、人力资本管理应用、企业资产管理和供应链管理等应用。
IDC企业级系统和软件研究部高级研究经理徐文婷表示：“云计算（SaaS）和数字化转型是中国企业级应用软件市场未来主要的发展驱动力，2020年的疫情影响倒逼企业重新思考数字化转型，加速了其数字化转型的进程，而云计算作为基础是企业实现数字化转型的关键。企业未来不仅仅关注内部运营效率的提升，更加关注外部协同的高效性，因此，具备有社交属性的CRM、云化的供应链管理等应用是企业未来的主要的关注领域，这就为中国的企业级应用供应商提出了很大的挑战，既要加快相关云原生产品的研发和迭代速度，同时要满足企业不同规模的个性化需求。不仅要成为企业的产品提供商，更要做企业数字化转型的合作伙伴。”
