TechNavio recognizes the following companies as the key players in the Global Unified Communication as-a-Service Market: Microsoft Corp., Cisco Systems Inc., Avaya Inc., and Alcatel-Lucent SA.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s Telecom team said: ”The cost of implementing a new infrastructure is high. Hence, organizations are reluctant to dispose of their existing legacy systems and install new systems. Cloud-based services are developed to help organizations minimize their infrastructure cost. They provide them with a better-quality service and reduce the cost incurred during maintenance, thus increasing the adoption of UCaaS by organizations.”
According to the report, one of the major drivers is the increased need for centralized management. UCaaS manages all the administrative tasks in a centralized manner; administrators can perform the task once and the data will be updated at every relevant location. The data can be accessed and information can be communicated without time and location constraints. This improves the reliability of the system and also saves time.
Further, the report states that one major challenge is the need for high bandwidth to share huge amounts of data through the cloud. As there is a scarcity of high bandwidth, this can hamper the quality of the service provided. This can delay the decision-making process in an organization, which may affect the organization’s productivity and therefore adversely affect the growth of the Global UCaaS market.
The report also includes a discussion of the other vendors operating in this market. The other vendors in the market are 8×8 Inc., CSC, Google Inc., Hewlett-Packard Co., IBM Corp., Mitel Networks, PanTerra Networks Inc., and ShoreTel Inc.
The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry.
