The global unified communications market size reached US$ 107 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, the analyst expects the market to reach US$ 276 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 17% during 2023-2028. The growing demand for customer communication channels, the increasing number of collaborations, and the emergence of remote working represent some of the key factors driving the market.
Unified communications (UC) refer to a concept that refers to the integration of various communication channels, tools, and technologies into a single platform. These platforms provide users with a seamless, consistent, and comprehensive communication experience, regardless of their location or device. They aim to improve communication and collaboration among employees, customers, and partners, leading to increased productivity, efficiency, and innovation. Additionally, the essential components of a typical UC solution include voice, video, messaging, presence, and collaboration tools. Voice communication is usually provided through voice over IP (VoIP) technology, which enables voice calls to be transmitted over the internet instead of traditional telephone lines. Video communication, on the other hand, allows users to hold virtual meetings, conferences, and webinars, with features, such as screen sharing, whiteboarding, and document sharing. Moreover, they also provide cost savings by reducing the need for multiple communication tools and services. With a unified platform, businesses can streamline their communication infrastructure, reduce maintenance and support costs, and simplify their billing processes. In addition, they can integrate with other business applications, such as customer relationship management (CRM) systems, to provide a comprehensive and unified view of customer interactions.
