Abstract

This section analyzes the impact of software business model characteristics on firm performance. In this regard, three evaluation models are analyzed based on three different empirical data sets. The first study in Section 4.1 covers the most comprehensive set of business model characteristics. Out of the 25 components introduced in Section 3.2.3, 19 variables are derived that are analyzed based on a sample of 94 software firms. The data stems from the German Software Industry Survey, which is presented in Section 3.3. The subsequent two studies are based on secondary data sources, namely firms’ annual reports and financial databases. For these studies, fewer software business model variables can be analyzed as the information in secondary data sources is limited. The study in Section 4.2 explores the impact of eight software business model variables based on a sample of the global top 100 software firms.
