The global cloud telephony services industry is poised to expand 2.5x from 2022-2032, expected to reach a market value of US$ 51.5 Billion, according to a recently concluded study published by Fact.MR. The market is expected to yield absolute dollar growth worth US$ 30.8 Billion. As of 2022, demand for cloud telephony services is forecast to accrue US$ 20.7 Billion. Growth is attributed to a shift towards more efficient telecommunications technologies.

From 2016-2021, cloud telephony service market demand accelerated at an impressive 10.6% value CAGR, concluding at US$ 17.7 Billion. The rapid transition from conventional phone lines to IP enabled telephony services is a key contributing factor to market growth. The market experienced further growth during the COVID-19 pandemic, as prevalence of remote working prompted enterprises to rely on virtual technologies, including frequent audio calls.

The scalability advantage that cloud telephony offers is particularly useful for today’s hybrid work models. Cloud systems have immediate built-in business continuity and aren’t affected by localized problems, including power cuts or natural disasters. This also helps businesses switch agents to work from anywhere (WFA) when needed and even if something happens near one data center, there are redundancies and backup power generators, making the communication systems disaster-proof.
