Market trends and drivers
With its products, Sitecore is targeting the customer experience management software market as well as the broader digital marketing software market. Both markets have experienced attractive growth in recent years driven by the increasing need to have a holistic view on customers as their journeys become more complex and span across multiple channels. This further drives the need for sophisticated solutions leveraging artificial intelligence and machine learning to enable companies to provide more relevant content to a diverse set of audiences in a scalable and automated way which eventually allows them to improve business performance through increased relevance and conversion.
Thus, by using Sitecore’s products, customers can design marketing activities that are more targeted and increasingly personalized for individual visitors which is increasingly demanded across industry verticals as customers become more sophisticated. However, as many companies are still not capturing the full potential from customer experience management and digital marketing, these markets are expected to experience continued momentum as companies mature further.
