The market is predicted to rise due to the shifting of companies towards digital platforms for their business.
With increased competition, technology has advanced dramatically in the media and entertainment, retail, financial services, banking, travel and tourism, and insurance industries during the previous decades.

Furthermore, the advent of high-speed internet technology like 4G and 5G is expected to boost the e-commerce software market's growth.

Despite the growing popularity of digital commerce software, there is increased caution about possible data breaches and malevolent groups compromising customers' personal information and security. Many clients have withdrawn from the virtual landscape due to numerous cyber fraud and identity theft incidents, hampering expansion potential.
