Market Report I 2023-01-23 I 200 Pages I Mordor Intelligence
Asia-Pacific Communications Platform-as-a-Service market is expected to show significant growth of 30.45% CAGR during the forecast period (2023 - 2028) on the back of growing work-at-home (WAH) promotions by major vendors as a preferred mode of carrying operations with the outbreak of COVID-19. For instance, as of April 2020, Teleperformance reached its work-at-home solutions target, with a 66% of operational staff penetration rate in its core business, or more than 155,000 agents working from home in April.
Key Highlights
Further, the low cost of ownership of cloud-based communication platforms and the rising adoption of pay-as-you-go cloud business models are expected to drive market growth. CPaaS is a cloud-based platform that helps customers by offering API-driven communications and microservices to their real-time application processes. CPaaS can be integrated into various applications without utilizing backend infrastructure and interfaces, owing to no upfront hardware (IT infrastructure) or software costs involved at the time of implementation of CPaaS. Moreover, CPaaS allows customers to develop communication features in existing on-premise communication systems such as telephony or media servers, thereby allowing customers to add new cloud-based functionality. In addition, CPaaS pricing is also available with pay per use structure, which is affordable for small-scale and micro industries. All these factors are expected to drive the growth of the Asia Pacific CPaaS market.
COVID-19 has significantly disrupted almost all industries, including infrastructure, transportation, oil and gas, manufacturing, and others. Most countries have implemented lockdown restrictions, which are now being eased slowly on a phase-wise and industry-wide basis. Furthermore, many companies are providing the work-from-home option to employees to constrain the spread of coronavirus. The COVID-19 outbreak resulted in the rise in remote devices accessing the enterprise network infrastructure. The increase in work-from-home trends has enabled enterprises to deploy communication platforms as service solutions during the pandemic. The recent COVID-19 pandemic positively impacted the market for communication platforms as a service solution.
