Growth Opportunities in the North American VoIP Access and SIP Trunking Services Market, Forecasts to 2028

This study delivers market sizing, growth forecasts and market share analysis in the next-generation voice access services market comprising:
• Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) trunking
• Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) trunking
• Basic VoIP access services
• Cloud Calling Plans

VoIP access and VoIP/SIP trunking services involve the provision of integrated circuits using VoIP or SIP technologies to businesses that have implemented premises-based business telephony solutions (private branch exchanges (PBXs)/IP PBXs or key systems), businesses that require a small number of telephony lines at the premises, or increasingly, businesses that want to manage telephony access to cloud-based PBX services.
These services enable companies deploying enterprise telephony customer premises equipment (CPE) to converge their voice, video, and data access networks.

VoIP access or SIP trunking service bundles typically include local dial tone, long-distance calling, and a limited set of call-management and control features such as simplified extension dialing among office locations.

Cloud calling plans are an alternative carrier offering that providers now offer to provision telephone numbers from their network directly into their customers’ cloud PBX platform tenant. In the scope of this research, cloud calling plans only include those plans served by a third-party carrier or other communications service provider. Calling plans provided by the cloud PBX provider are specifically excluded.
