A Return to Growth as Businesses Adapt to and Shape the New Normal

Description
This study provides an in-depth analysis of the European hosted IP telephony and UCaaS market, including a forecast of installed users, average prices and provider revenue until 2028. The study discusses the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic on businesses and users, and the effects of economic hardship on services adoption and provider growth strategies. Furthermore, this study provides market share and competitor analyses, as well as highlights important regional and country trends. Finally, the study identifies key growth opportunities for providers delivering hosted IP telephony, UCaaS and other cloud services in European markets. UCaaS user and revenue growth will normalise throughout the forecast period following a spike in adoption in 2021 caused by pent-up demand amid the pandemic year of 2020. Growth will also be attributed to the need to address high levels of hybrid work and evolving business models. There exist considerable growth opportunities for service providers operating in the European markets. Hosted IP telephony and UCaaS providers can enhance their existing solutions with new features and capabilities, launch new offerings, expand into new customer segments or new geographic markets, develop more creative service bundles or integrate their communications and collaboration solutions with third-party software and services to address new and unique use cases. However, an economic recession and an overall tough economic climate due to inflation, high energy costs and hampered supply chains will cause churn in the installed base and a delay in new projects. Furthermore, businesses with heightened security and compliance requirements or complex customization and integration needs may continue to choose premises-based solutions as they offer superior performance on these criteria. Concerns about compliance and control have also heightened owing to the war in Ukraine. In the near term, traction by country and sub-region will be determined by the degree to which each country has been impacted by the COVID-19 epidemic, economic strife and supply chain issues. All European markets will continue to grow in terms of both installed users and revenue. This study provides technology developers, service providers, resellers and other market participants with important information to navigate the tough economic climate in the short term and identify key growth opportunities in the long term.
