The cloud product lifecycle management market size is estimated to increase by USD 1.23 billion and grow at a CAGR of 6.46% between 2022 and 2027. The growth of the market depends on several factors, including a reduction in IT expenditure, growing demand for large-scale product lifecycle management, and rising requirements for remotely accessible product lifecycle management solutions. The market is propelled by several pivotal factors, with a primary driver being the notable decrease in IT spending. Conventional on-premise PLM solutions typically require significant initial investments in infrastructure and ongoing maintenance expenses. Conversely, cloud-based PLM systems adopt a subscription-based approach, eliminating the necessity for costly infrastructure procurement and maintenance. This reduction in IT expenditure empowers organizations to allocate resources more effectively, resulting in overall operational cost reductions and streamlined budget management.
