Veeva Systems Inc 's Comment on Competition and Industry Peers
The markets for our solutions are global, rapidly evolving, highly competitive
and subject to changing regulations, advancing technology and shifting customer
needs. The solutions and applications offered by our competitors vary in size,
breadth, and scope.
Our multichannel CRM applications compete with offerings from large global
enterprise software vendors, such as Oracle Corporation and Microsoft Corporation,
and also compete with life sciences-specific CRM providers, such as IQVIA Inc.,
formerly QuintilesIMS. We also compete with a number of vendors of cloud-based
and on-premise CRM applications that address only a portion of the functionality
of our CRM solutions. Our master data management solutions compete with master
data solutions offered by vendors such as IBM Corporation, Informatica Corporation,
IQVIA, and Reltio, Inc. Our data and data services offerings compete with IQVIA
and many other data providers. Our Veeva Vault content management solutions
compete with offerings from large global content management platform vendors
such as Microsoft, OpenText Corporation and Oracle, and with offerings from
life sciences specific providers, such as Medidata Solutions, Inc., PAREXEL
International Corporation, IQVIA, BioClinica, Inc., and Sparta Technologies
Ltd. We also compete with professional services companies that provide solutions
on these platforms, such as DXC Technology Company.
In the future, providers of horizontal cloud-based solutions and platforms,
such as Box.com, Amazon Web Services, or Microsoft, and third parties that build
on their platforms, may seek to compete with us. In addition, we have begun
selling certain of our Veeva Vault applications to companies outside the life
sciences industry. We have limited experience selling certain of our Veeva Vault
applications to companies outside the life sciences industry, and, therefore,
we anticipate having to compete with many existing solutions, including those
listed above, custom-built software developed by third-party vendors or in-house
by our potential customers and niche software providers.
We may also face competition from custom-built software developed by third-party
vendors or developed in-house by our potential customers, or from applications
built by our customers or by third parties on behalf of our customers using
commercially available software platforms that are provided by third parties.
We may also face competition from companies that provide cloud-based solutions
in different target or horizontal markets that may develop applications or work
with companies that operate in our target markets. With the introduction of
new technologies, we expect competition to intensify in the future, and we may
face competition from new market entrants as well.
In some cases, our competitors are well-established providers of competitive
solutions and have long-standing relationships with many of our current and
potential customers, including large pharmaceutical and emerging biopharmaceutical
companies. Oracle and IQVIA, for example, each have greater name recognition,
much longer operating histories, larger marketing budgets, and significantly
greater resources than we do.
Many of our competitors may be able to devote greater resources to the development,
promotion and sale of their products and services than we are able to devote.
Such competitors may be able to initiate or withstand substantial price competition
and may offer solutions competitive to certain of our solutions on a standalone
basis at a lower price or bundled as part of a larger product sale, including
the bundling of software solutions and data. In addition, many of our competitors
have established marketing relationships, access to larger customer bases and
distribution agreements with consultants, system
integrators and resellers that we do not have. Our competitors may also establish
cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties that may further
enhance their product offerings or resources.
In addition, in order to take advantage of customer demand for cloud-based
solutions, such competitors may expand their cloud-based solutions through acquisitions
and organic development or may seek to partner with other leading cloud providers.
For instance, in October 2016, IMS Health Holding, Inc. and Quintiles Transnational
Holdings Inc., a contract research organization, combined to form Quintiles
IMS Holdings, Inc., which now operates under the name IQVIA. The combined entity
competes with us in a number of product areas, including software solutions,
data and data services. The impact of this transaction on our competitive environment
is uncertain but increased competition from IQVIA could negatively impact our
business. Additionally, IQVIA has partnered with Reltio to resell certain of
Reltio’s master data management offerings, which could also negatively
impact our business.
We believe the principal competitive factors in our market include the following:
level of customer satisfaction;
regulatory compliance verification and functionality;
domain expertise with respect to life sciences;
ease of deployment and use of solutions and applications;
breadth and depth of solution and application functionality;
brand awareness and reputation;
modern and adaptive technology platform;
capability for customization, configurability, integration, security, scalability
and reliability of applications;
total cost of ownership;
ability to innovate and respond to customer needs rapidly;
size of customer base and level of user adoption;
ability to secure the rights to load and process third party proprietary data
licensed by customers; and
ability to integrate with legacy enterprise infrastructures and third-party
applications.
We believe that we generally compete favorably on the basis of these factors
and that the domain expertise required for developing and deploying successful
solutions in the life sciences industry may hinder new entrants that are unable
to invest the necessary capital to develop solutions that can address the functionality,
requirements and regulatory compliance capabilities needed for the life sciences
industry. Our ability to remain competitive will largely depend on our ongoing
performance in the areas of solution and application development and customer
support.
