European UCaaS Market Shares, 2023: Vendors that Shaped 2023


This IDC Market Share analyzes the European unified communications-as-a-service vendor landscape. UCaaS momentum is being driven by hybrid work. The study outlines trends in market share and provides recommendations for market players. The trend is to unify communications and collaboration modalities into one platform to enhance user experience and work fluidity. With collaboration tools now mostly residing in the cloud, businesses aim to have voice in the cloud as well for seamless integration. They are, however, taking a cautious and structured approach to cloud migration when it comes to voice to avoid disruptions to workflow."Flexibility should be at the center of voice solutions to cater to a wide range of business requirements. UCaaS vendors should partner closely within the ecosystem to enable tighter integrations for seamless work experience and to enhance service offerings," said Oru Mohiuddin, research director, IDC European Enterprise Communications and Collaboration.
