Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]  
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
The Company’s intangible assets primarily arise from acquisitions and principally consist of goodwill, trademarks, customer relationships, and acquired software and technology. Intangible assets, other than goodwill, are amortized on a straight‑line basis over their estimated useful lives.
Goodwill
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill are as follows:
Balance, December 31, 2022$2,237,184 
Acquisitions19,934 
Foreign currency translation adjustments11,732 
Other adjustments486 
Balance, December 31, 20232,269,336 
Acquisitions120,214 
Foreign currency translation adjustments(21,538)
Other adjustments(833)
Balance, December 31, 2024$2,367,179 
Goodwill consists of the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations. Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is tested annually for impairment on October 1, or more frequently if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce its fair value below its carrying amount. The Company allocates goodwill to reporting units on a relative fair value basis.
In testing for goodwill impairment, the Company may first qualitatively assess whether it is more likely than not (a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that a goodwill impairment exists. If it is determined that a quantitative assessment is required and the carrying amount exceeds its fair value, the Company will recognize goodwill impairment in the amount in which the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, but not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill within the reporting unit. There was no impairment of goodwill as a result of the Company’s annual impairment assessments conducted for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, or 2022.

Intangible assets other than goodwill are tested annually for impairment on October 1, or more frequently if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce its fair value below its carrying amount.
In testing intangible assets other than goodwill for impairment, the Company may first qualitatively assess whether it is more likely than not (a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that an intangible asset impairment exists. If it is determined that a quantitative assessment is required, the Company will evaluate the cash flows generated by the underlying asset, including estimated future operation results, trends, or other determinants of fair value. If the total of the expected future undiscounted cash flows were less than the carrying amount of the asset, the Company would recognize an impairment charge to the extent the carrying amount of the asset exceeded its estimated fair value. There was no impairment of intangible assets for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, or 2022.
