Global hospitality technology leader saw fastest growth in the past three years, powered by its next-generation Daylight PMS.
BERLIN, Germany, August 25 – Shiji, the global hospitality technology leader, has been recognized as a Major Player in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Hospitality Property Management Systems (PMS) 2025 Vendor Assessment, underscoring its rapid ascent and growing influence in the global PMS market. Shiji has demonstrated the fastest growth trajectory of any provider over the past three years and ranks third in overall market share in the report.
In just three years, Daylight PMS has made the most dramatic leap of any PMS on the IDC MarketScape, rising from a “Contender” position in 2022 to just shy of “Leader” status this year. This acceleration reflects strong adoption by innovative hotel brands worldwide, as well as Daylight PMS’ proven scalability, robust functionality, and ability to meet the evolving demands of enterprise and independent operators alike. Shiji solutions now power tens of thousands of hotels across the globe, including some of the industry’s most recognizable names.
Daylight PMS benefits from Shiji’s extensive global presence, with local service units, multilingual support centers, and fiscal compliance structures already in place across every major region. This allows hotel groups to scale internationally with confidence, while meeting regional requirements without added complexity.
“We believe this recognition in the IDC MarketScape validates not only the strength of Daylight PMS, but also the incredible progress Shiji has made in just a few years,” said Kevin King, CEO of Shiji International. “Climbing faster than any other provider reflects our mission to deliver critical technology that give hoteliers the flexibility, scalability, and control they need to succeed in a competitive and rapidly changing environment.”
The IDC MarketScape evaluation is based on both vendor capabilities and buyer perception. To be considered, providers must demonstrate a strong global presence, serve enterprise hotel groups, and offer an enterprise-ready PMS deployed across multiple properties worldwide. Inclusion also requires significant revenue, proven multi-property deployments, and the ability to support diverse hospitality models including luxury, full-service, economy, resorts, casinos, and alternative lodging.
Shiji’s emphasis on holistic guest profiles and robust integrations was also noted as a key differentiator, helping hotels deliver more personalized experiences while optimizing operations. Daylight PMS further offers features such as centralized guest management, integrated meetings and events capabilities, advanced reporting, and enterprise-level security.
