Technavio analysts highlight the following three factors that are contributing to the growth of the global DAM market:

  • Shift from on-premises to cloud-based solutions
  • Increased use of DAM across retail, media, and entertainment industries
  • Increased need for complex management of rich media content

Shift from on-premises to cloud-based solutions

DAM vendors are gradually shifting from providing on-premises solutions to cloud-based solutions, which offer drag-and-drop functionality, mobile accessibility, and a more intuitive service. Vendors are targeting companies of all sizes by offering affordable solutions and rapid deployment of the same for all business users and their digital asset needs. The key reason behind its popularity is the pay-per-use pricing model where clients pay only for what they use. These services are available in three deployment models: infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), and software as a service (SaaS (News - Alert)).

Cloud-based storage services have customers from multiple industry verticals who opt for these services to meet their digital storage needs. These industries are choosing cloud-based storage services as most of the service providers manage not only digital files but also offer disaster recovery solutions, which is attractive to many companies. Therefore, cloud storage solutions allow organizations to use cloud storage services as per storage requirements, which is driving the market growth.

Increased use of DAM across retail, media, and entertainment industries

"Digital marketing is currently the most effective form of marketing, with most industries using this platform to meet their marketing targets. The almost complete ubiquity of the internet and widespread penetration of smartphones and laptops with continuously increasing online usage have encouraged companies to adopt DAM as an add-on to boost business development initiatives," says Ishmeet.

In sectors like retail, media, and entertainment industries, where the product margins are low, there is a high pressure on companies to ensure profits with minimum investments made into marketing. This has encouraged organizations to consider digital marketing to create higher efficiencies in store operations through improved workforce management, product placement, and store layouts. These industries continue to leverage DAM solutions with technologies, such as next-generation interactive services, search engine optimization (SEO), and mobility to ensure sales, thereby boosting revenue to the DAM market.

Increased need for complex management of rich media content

Navigating through online digital content has become cumbersome with the volume of online content increasing exponentially. Using a normal search function to look within thousands of files for specific text on a network drive is extremely time consuming and complex.





 
As of 2016, the total time spent consuming digital media from desktop devices grew 16% and the total amount of time spent with digital media increased by more than 40% from 2014. This is driven largely by the use of mobile devices such as laptops, smartphones, and tablets.
 

Organizations are using DAM for organizing, storing, and locating a specific image or a video among thousands of digital assets spread across many folders. With these solutions, organizations can not only create an archive and develop an infrastructure to store and manage digital assets, but also facilitates a search functionality that allows end-users to identify, locate, and retrieve an asset quickly.
