Smart Building & IoT Platforms
Platforms connecting building sensors and IoT devices for automated facility control.
Market snapshot
These figures describe Vertical SaaS (9.5.11), the segment that Smart Building & IoT Platforms sits within. They are not figures for Smart Building & IoT Platforms on its own.
Not sized separately. One classification covers every software publisher, so it cannot be split between vertical and horizontal products. Vertical software is the more defensible half commercially, because a system built around one industry's workflow faces fewer competitors and far lower churn than a horizontal tool sold to everyone.
