The cloud-based payroll software market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $11.56 billion in 2023 to $12.85 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.2%. The increase during the historical period can be credited to the heightened adoption of cloud computing technologies, the surge in demand for streamlined payroll processes, the expansion of the gig economy, a heightened focus on cost reduction, and the proliferation of subscription-based software models.
The cloud-based payroll software market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $19.87 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.5%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing adoption of advanced AI, growing demand for predictive analytics, rising interest in integrated forecasting solutions, the expanding use of IoT devices, and the growing reliance on big data analytics. Key trends expected during this period encompass the adoption of cloud-based payroll solutions, technological advancements, the integration of artificial intelligence, the adoption of integrated HR and payroll systems, and the adoption of blockchain technology.
The increasing adoption of remote workforces is poised to drive the growth of the cloud-based payroll software market in the coming years. A remote workforce comprises employees who operate outside of traditional office settings, often working from home or other remote locations. Several factors contribute to the growing trend of remote workforces, including access to global talent, flexibility, and the rising demand for work-life balance. Cloud-based payroll software facilitates the management of remote workforces by seamlessly integrating with other tools such as time tracking and HR systems. Its automation features simplify complex processes such as tax calculations and direct deposits, reducing manual workload and errors for HR and payroll teams. For example, in May 2022, according to the Office for National Statistics, the proportion of workers engaging in hybrid work increased from 13% in early February 2022 to 24% in May 2022. Additionally, the number of people preferring to work from home largely rose by 12% between April 2021 and February 2022. Consequently, the growing trend of remote workforces is propelling the growth of the cloud-based payroll software market.
Key players in the cloud-based payroll software market are collaborating to introduce intelligent and advanced solutions, such as platform-based payroll systems, to help businesses efficiently manage payroll operations. A platform-based payroll system is a payroll management solution that operates on a digital platform, typically offered as a software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution. For instance, in February 2024, Ramco Systems Limited, an India-based technology company, launched Ramco Payce, a platform-based payroll system designed to revolutionize business payroll administration.
