According to the newly released 2025 Access Control Report from global research firm Omdia, Genetec Inc., a global company in enterprise physical security software, continues to expand its share of the global access control software market, maintaining its No. 2 position worldwide (excluding China).
In an industry shaped by mergers and acquisitions, the report shows that Genetec achieved the highest organic global market share gain in on-premises access control software.
According to the Omdia report, Genetec also ranked as one of the fastest organically growing vendors in the access control as a service (ACaaS) segment in the Americas region, which represents more than 70% of the global market. This growth was propelled by the rapid adoption of Security Center SaaS, the company’s open, unified physical security cloud-based platform.
Genetec retained its No. 2 position in the Americas for access control software market share, gained ground in EMEA, and remained among the top 10 providers in Asia Pacific (excluding China), where it once again recorded the region’s highest rate of organic growth.
“The access control software market has been the fastest growing global driver of access control equipment sales over the past decade as the industry has become more software centric,” said Bryan Montany, principal research analyst, physical security, Omdia. “Cloud-based solutions have emerged as a significant growth driver due to their scalability and their enhanced data processing capabilities. The strong organic growth achieved by Genetec demonstrates the appeal of its flexible deployment options, broad interoperability with third-party hardware, and unified security systems platform.”
In addition to its 2025 access control report, Omdia recently released its 2025 Video Surveillance & Analytics Report, which showed that Genetec retained its No. 1 position worldwide in video surveillance software, and is also ranked No. 1 globally in the broader category that combines video surveillance software and video surveillance as a service (VSaaS).
“For more than 25 years, our development strategy has focused on anticipating customer needs and delivering practical innovations,” said Christian Morin, vice president of product engineering and chief security officer, Genetec Inc. “The consistent year-over-year growth noted by analysts in the access control and VMS markets is a testament to our long-standing commitment to open, unified systems, robust cybersecurity, and privacy by design.”
