Bentley Systems recorded broad-based strength across resources, public works, and utilities in the third quarter. Year-over-year annual recurring revenue growth accelerated to 13%. The net retention rate was also up 100 basis points to 110%. Shares were up 3% during trading on Nov. 5.
Bentley Systems can expand its leadership in public works and utilities to other sectors, such as resources and industrials, dramatically increasing the number of customers it can serve.
Competitors such as Autodesk are developing more advanced infrastructure engineering software, gradually narrowing Bentley Systems’ competitive advantage.
