Salesforce AppExchange Marketplace Trends (2026)

Salesforce AppExchange app marketplace trends in 2026 are anchored on three observable signals: total app count growth, category-by-category app density, and average customer rating. Each metric is refreshed daily from neutral, anonymous browser scrapes of the public Salesforce AppExchange catalog — no sponsored slots, no merchant-personalized ranks. AppRanks publishes the raw counts here so developers, agencies, and platform teams can compare positioning year over year without building their own scrape pipeline.

Use the Top Categories block below to spot where new app supply is concentrating and the platform-wide stat strip to compare against the other 11 marketplaces AppRanks tracks. Numbers update once every 12–24 hours per platform; click any category for the full ranked list. For deeper signal, the Salesforce AppExchange best-of pages rank apps within each category and the app browser indexes every public listing with its current rating, review velocity, and audit score.
