  • Codat's Guide to the Accounting Software Market July 2020 How Is the Accounting Market Changing and What Does This Mean?
    Codat's guide to the accounting software market July 2020 How is the accounting market changing and what does this mean? Across the world there are certainly dominant players within the accounting software market. However the market is rapidly changing and expanding. Key players are diversifying and fragmenting their offering to suit the ever changing needs of their key audience - the small business. A long tail of other accounting packages has emerged, spurred on by a huge shift in demand from desktop based packages to cloud based services which has largely been attributed to changing consumer expectations and regulation that has driven accounting and tax online. The expansion of cloud services has opened the door to more accessible and cost-saving software packages that include more automated features meaning that individuals with little to no accounting experience could navigate them. The cloud also allows for more centralised data which freely flows through APIs and integrations across platforms leading to greater insights and analysis that can be vital for a small business to survive and flourish. The accounting software market has transformed into a highly competitive, digitized and interconnected landscape which is largely driven with one customer in mind - the small business. *All data contained within this paper is based on extensive research carried out by Codat from various different sources, including both public and non-public sources. Some data has been calculated based on global figures and split across regions according to presence in the region. All data has been provided on a best-efforts basis, however Codat cannot guarantee the accuracy or completeness of this information.
