Introducing The State of Software The B2B software landscape is constantly evolving. As the world’s largest software marketplace, we have a direct lens into what’s happening in real-time – from real user reviews, website traffic, product and category insights, and more. Analysts on the Market Research team are stewards of G2’s taxonomy, constantly studying the marketplace to ensure it’s the best possible reflection of the realities that exist in the marketplace for software buyers. It’s always moving, and so are we. We’re proud to share the inaugural State of Software Report – a window into what’s happening in software – and share these insights for all. Our quarterly report will be your guide on what’s trending: the software categories emerging, growing fastest, as well as the trends with vendors and products within those markets. In this first edition, we’re looking back over the past year to showcase where innovation is happening and give vendors, investors, and buyers a window into where these key software markets are headed.
