These Are The Stellar Startup Business Application Vendors To Know In 2025
Operational applications are how businesses and organizations generate value from IT. As part of CRN’s Stellar Startups for 2025, here are three business application startups, founded in 2019 or later, that solution providers should be aware of.
Getting Down To Business
Business applications are how work gets done within businesses and organizations. Whether they are personal productivity applications for employees or enterprise software that businesses and organizations count on to run their core operations, business applications – sales, marketing, billing, financial planning, help desk operations, and so on – are how the value of all those underlying IT systems is realized.
Business applications are also important because they are a vehicle for automating business processes, helping organizations be more efficient, more productive and more innovative.
The global enterprise applications market reached $320.4 billion in 2024 and is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 11.8 percent to reach $625.7 billion by 2030, according to Grand View Research.
Software giants like SAP, Microsoft, Salesforce and Intuit account for a significant share of the business applications market. But startup companies are often on the leading edge of innovation in developing applications that meet businesses’ rapidly changing needs. Such business applications developed by startups present a major opportunity for solution providers and strategic service providers.
