The mental health software market is fueled by the increase in the requirement for the production of excessive documentation and the rise in the number of people seeking mental health treatment for self-care.

Also, the increase in workflow efficiency in recent years due to the improvements in the infrastructure and technology with the lowering of the costs has increased the demand for the market growth of mental health software. Moreover, new advancements and innovations in technology for the development and improvement of the systems are encouraging the MEA market growth. On the other hand, the growing awareness and use of electronic health records (EHR) for higher quality and accurate patient information and lower healthcare costs are driving up demand for mental health software. In addition, the market is driven mainly by the rising level of productivity for fast data access. Furthermore, rising government and non-government efforts and investments in research processes and behavioral health, along with a loss of production among doctors, as well as increased demand for medical and healthcare services, are driving market growth. 

The primary factor affecting the market's growth is concerns related to data privacy with increasing cases of data breaching and data infringement as the data related to mental health and other illnesses are not permitted to be shared due to personal reasons. Lack of awareness among the people about the importance and benefits of mental and behavioral health and the increasingly high costs of health software and equipment. Also, the lack of skilled and trained individuals to maintain and operate the software affects the market growth of mental health software.
