This report covers market characteristics, size and growth, segmentation, regional and country breakdowns, competitive landscape, market shares, trends and strategies for this market. It traces the market’s historic and forecast market growth by geography.
The electronic data capture systems market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.02 billion in 2024 to $2.34 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.1%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to regulatory compliance, cost reduction initiatives, increasing clinical trial complexity, demand for real-time data access, globalization of clinical trials.
The electronic data capture systems market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.21 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to aging population and chronic diseases, personalized medicine and precision healthcare, adoption of risk-based monitoring, expansion of real-world evidence (RWE) studies, emerging markets growth. Major trends in the forecast period include increased emphasis on patient-centricity, integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning, expansion of decentralized clinical trials, growth of wearable technology integration, enhanced focus on data security and privacy.
The increasing trend towards outsourcing clinical trials to contract research organizations (CROs) is poised to drive the growth of the electronic data capture systems market in the foreseeable future. Clinical trial outsourcing involves the delegation of various trial aspects to external service providers by pharmaceutical, biotechnology, or medical device firms. This preference for outsourcing is driven by the cost-effectiveness, access to specialized expertise, global reach, flexibility, scalability, and the ability to focus on core competencies offered by CROs. Electronic data capture systems play a crucial role in clinical trials by digitally collecting, managing, and analyzing patient data, thus streamlining the data collection process, enhancing accuracy, and enabling real-time monitoring and reporting of trial outcomes. For instance, in October 2023, according to Applied Clinical Trials Online, large biopharmaceutical companies are witnessing annual growth of over 13% in the utilization of functional service provider (FSP) outsourcing. Hence, the increasing demand for outsourcing clinical trials to CROs is a driving force behind the growth of the electronic data capture systems market.
Leading companies in the electronic data capture systems market are concentrating on developing innovative software solutions, such as electronic data capture (EDC) platforms for clinical trials. An EDC platform is a digital system designed to collect and manage trial data effectively, ensuring accuracy, real-time access, and adherence to regulatory standards. For example, in March 2023, Cloudbyz, a cloud technology company based in the US, launched Cloudbyz EDC 2.0, an advanced Electronic Data Capture platform aimed at optimizing clinical research operations. This platform improves operational efficiency, ensures data integrity, facilitates regulatory compliance, and speeds up the delivery of new treatments to patients. Cloudbyz EDC 2 streamlines data collection and management, minimizes manual errors, and complies with global regulatory requirements, including FDA 21 CFR Part 11 and GDPR.
In June 2022, Greenlight Guru, a US-based software company, completed the acquisition of SMART-TRIAL for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition significantly bolstered Greenlight Guru's platform capabilities, offering a comprehensive solution for MedTech companies to streamline clinical data management and solidify its leadership in MedTech Lifecycle Excellence. SMART-TRIAL, based in Denmark, specializes in electronic data capture platform solutions.
