Key Highlights

• The growing penetration of digital technologies into business functions across various industries drives the market’s growth. As the digitization of processes continues across all major industries, the focus of enterprises toward capitalizing on the huge volumes of data generated is increasing, boosting the demand for data visualization solutions. Hence, data visualization tools are also becoming more critical to help end -users make sense of the huge amount of data generated daily.
• The growth in big data obtained from the increasing number of internet and social media users, multi-device access to visualization, customized reports for specific roles, ongoing training for business users, and constantly changing optimizing dashboards are contributing to the growth of the market.
• The data visualization market has a wide range of applications across various industry verticals using different software or tools. Data visualization solutions help provide insights from the data quickly. The retail industry is one of the biggest beneficiaries. In addition, the increasing adoption of data visualization in small and medium enterprises is expected to fuel the growth of the data visualization market.
• The lack of a skilled workforce is hindering the market growth. There is a significant increase in the requirement for data analytics and data visualization tools. According to the IBM Quant Crunch, up to 2.72 million jobs requiring data science skills were expected to be in 2020, making it one of the highest-demand roles across industries. College graduates from MIS/CS departments know little about database modeling or real-world database environments.
• The COVID-19 pandemic has created a substantial socio-economic predicament, which resulted in the temporary collapse and closure of thousands of businesses worldwide. Businesses worldwide are compelled to make significant changes to their operations, such as downsizing, products, and service diversification.

Key Market TrendsRetail to Witness Significant Growth

• The retail sector is witnessing massive growth in the amount of data generated from various channels, such as social sites, blogs, and apps. Most of the unstructured data produced are left unused, which, if utilized, may provide valuable information. The incorporation of the Internet of Things (IoT) in the retail sector has increased over the past few years through the increased utilization of devices, such as RFID and sensors.
• The retail industry utilizes data visualization tools as real-time decision support systems. With real-time analytics, it becomes easy for retail organizations to detect events, such as low inventory or high customer traffic, without writing custom code for alerts for every possible scenario that needs attention. This would enable even non-technical staff to monitor these events easily and respond immediately.
• Retailers worldwide are trying to embrace data visualization to understand their customers at every stage of the retail process. Data visualization tools provide the benefit of predicting trends, product demand, and competitive intelligence, thereby reaping the maximum profit potential.
• According to Accenture and the Retail Industry Leaders Association (RILA), the importance of retailers providing personalized shopping experiences has increased, indicating an evolved definition of retail that requires meeting customers' requirements. It also enables manufacturers to go for mass customization.
