Growing demand to maximize the efficiency of field forces and the growing adoption of cloud-based solutions is driving the global field force automation market. Additionally, increasing ownership of smartphones and Internet connectivity among enterprises around the globe are also important factors for the growth of the field force automation market. Field force automation offers easy and smooth management and communication to field forces. A large number of enterprises have a diskless workforce deployed across countries and continents. The operation of the workforce in widespread areas creates a number of challenges for enterprises in relation to workforce execution, data management, and communication. Field force automation software efficiently caters to these challenges by providing effective management of field forces. Field force automation software takes sales and service data in real-time and transmits it to a mobile interface. Through the interface, field personnel can communicate in real-time from a specified location. There are two distinct field force automation software—software dedicated to sales data and software dedicated to customer service. However, there are several software that offers both the capabilities in a single solution. For instance, field service management focuses exclusively on scheduling and dispatching, working with drivers en route to customer locations, and documenting specific customer needs on-site.

The field force automation market is fragmented with a number of large and mid-size players offering solutions to the end-user. These providers spend a significant amount in research and development in order to understand user requirements so that they can develop and update features in their software solution.
