Worldwide Web Conferencing Applications Software Forecast, 2022–2026: Evolving Conferencing

This IDC study looks at the evolving future of the web conferencing applications software market, how we meet and connect, and how we will connect in the future. During 2021, conferencing applications made us feel connected and kept our work moving forward. The web conferencing applications software market revenue grew 28.1% in 2021 and is expected to more than double by 2026. Companies that are more advanced in collaboration have integrated conferencing within their collaborative stack of applications to drive productivity — and to move closer to becoming a digital enterprise. These actions were frequently paired with a culture of collaboration: modeling and mentoring working together as a team from the top of the organization down and from the bottom of the organization up."Uncertainty that are headwinds in other markets will be mostly tailwinds for the web conferencing applications," according to Wayne Kurtzman, research vice president for Social, Communities, and Collaboration Applications, IDC. "Conferencing platforms will become more engaging, visual, functional, and community powered. Aided by intelligence, conferencing will evolve to better capture elements of work that are part of the digital workplace and the next generation of analytics."
