CLOUD GAINS GROUND ACROSS REGIONS

US & Canada

Cloud adoption in the US and Canada was already high in 2024, reaching 73 % a year ahead of the global tipping point.
This region is considered one of the most mature SaaS and cloud markets globally, with strong growth expected in the next few years. Today, 79 % of projects across Canada and the US are cloud-first, and much of this demand comes from tech-savvy enterprises adopting cloud print at scale.
While these percentages trail some Western European markets, the US in particular has the highest billings value in absolute terms. As a result, even small percentage shifts translate into substantial cloud volumes in this region.
