Worldwide and U.S. Document Solutions Software Forecast, 2024-2028

The IDC study is aligned with the methodology used by IDC's Worldwide Semiannual Software Tracker. The forecast includes revenue generated by only the original software manufacturer or independent software vendor (ISV). The reseller's markup is excluded. (It is important to note that some of the printing equipment manufacturers also function as ISVs.)"The document solutions software market faces challenges as page volumes decline and print fleets shrink. However, growth opportunities exist in this market as customers seek solutions that ease the burden on their IT departments, increase efficiency, streamline workflows, and enable the transition of device, print, and output management to the cloud." - Geoffrey Wilbur, research manager, Imaging, Printing, and Document Solutions group at IDC
