The region comprises few of the fastest growing economies of the world including India and China where the IT industry is registering phenomenal growth outpacing the global average.

In 2008, the revenue coming from mid-sized enterprises was $276.9 million, which contributed to 71.0% of the total market in that year. The high number of medium-sized organizations and the low cost to implement SaaS is the main reason for adoption in mid-sized companies.

Therefore, large global SaaS vendors continue to focus on these markets.
