IMPACT OF COVID-19:

The COVID-19 epidemic has damaged every industry, and as a result of societal distancing rules, businesses are turning to digitalization to protect the safety of their workers. Organizations have been forced to contemplate the future of work and what it may look like for employees as a result of restrictions put in place to stop the virus from spreading. Many organizations that did not have work-from-home policies scrambled to implement such in the aftermath of COVID-19, which many experts predict will continue into the post-COVID-19 period. Because of the present remote working demands, the usage of an integrated UCaaS platform has surged in the epidemic. As a result, the demand for UCaaS is expected to rise. Video conferencing, web conferencing, collaborative meetings, mobile telephony, and VoIP phone systems have become some of the most sought-after technologies since many workers began working from home as a result of COVID-19.

MARKET ESTIMATION:

In 2021, the public cloud category had the highest revenue share. The usage of public cloud technology speeds up the testing and deployment of new products. Scalable, subscription-based UC solutions may be deployed via public cloud-based deployment strategies. As a consequence, businesses of all sizes may easily transition from traditional communication methods and platforms to more modern and efficient public cloud UCaaS solutions. Companies are increasingly opting for public cloud-based systems because they want a flexible environment that might possibly help them deploy changes more effectively. Over the forecast period, the private cloud deployment model is likely to provide considerable growth potential for the market. Private clouds provide for more customization and allow businesses to subscribe to services based on their individual requirements.

With revenue in 2021, the IT and telecom category led the market. The need for UCaaS solutions is being driven by the strong desire of various IT and telecom enterprises to roll out more effective communication among their internationally spread employees. Employees in the IT and telecom industries frequently engage with high-profile clients, such as government departments and federal agencies, requiring safe and efficient information sharing. The increased requirement for data security and privacy protection is prompting IT and telecom firms to use UCaaS solutions. In 2020, the healthcare business will earn a substantial revenue share as patients continue to be interested in establishing effective contact with healthcare authorities and caregivers in order to receive better treatment. As a result, doctors and healthcare providers are increasingly interested in real-time access to crucial patient data from a variety of sources in order to improve the patient experience and operational efficiency. Healthcare systems are increasingly using UCaaS solutions.

14. Conclusion

An accurate research report requires proper strategizing as well as implementation. There are multiple factors involved in the completion of a good and accurate research report and selecting the best methodology to complete the research is the toughest part. Since the research reports, we provide play a crucial role in any company’s decision-making process, therefore we at SNS Insider always believe that we should choose the best method which gives us results closer to reality. This allows us to reach a stage wherein we can provide our clients best and most accurate investment to output ratio.

Each report that we prepare takes a timeframe of 350-400 business hours for production. Starting from the selection of titles through a couple of in-depth brainstorming sessions to the final QC process before uploading our titles on our website we dedicate around 350 working hours. The titles are selected based on their current market cap and the foreseen CAGR and growth.

 

The 5 steps process:

Step 1: Secondary Research:

Secondary Research or Desk Research as the name suggests is a research process wherein, we collect data through readily available information. In this process, we use various paid and unpaid databases to which our team has access and gather data through the same. This includes examining listed companies’ annual reports, Journals, SEC filling, etc. Apart from this, our team has access to various associations across the globe across different industries. Lastly, we have exchange relationships with various universities as well as individual libraries.

Secondary Research

Step 2: Primary Research

When we talk about primary research, it is a type of study in which the researchers collect relevant data samples directly, rather than relying on previously collected data.  This type of research is focused on gaining content-specific facts that can be sued to solve specific problems. Since the collected data is fresh and first-hand therefore it makes the study more accurate and genuine.

We at SNS Insider have divided Primary Research into 2 parts.

Part 1 wherein we interview the KOLs of major players as well as the upcoming ones across various geographic regions. This allows us to have their view over the market scenario and acts as an important tool to come closer to accurate market numbers. As many as 45 paid and unpaid primary interviews are taken from both the demand and supply sides of the industry to make sure we land an accurate judgment and analysis of the market.

This step involves the triangulation of data wherein our team analyses the interview transcripts, online survey responses, and observation of on-field participants. The below-mentioned chart should give a better understanding of part 1 of the primary interview.

Part 2: In this part of the primary research the data collected via secondary research and part 1 of the primary research is validated with the interviews with individual consultants and subject matter experts.

Consultants are those set of people who have at least 12 years of experience and expertise within the industry whereas Subject Matter Experts are those with at least 15 years of experience behind their back within the same space. The data with the help of two main processes i.e., FGDs (Focused Group Discussions) and IDs (Individual Discussions). This gives us a 3rd party nonbiased primary view of the market scenario making it a more dependable one while collation of the data pointers.

Step 3: Data Bank Validation

Once all the information is collected via primary and secondary sources, we run that information for data validation. At our intelligence center, our research heads track a lot of information related to the market which includes the quarterly reports, the daily stock prices, and other relevant information. Our data bank server gets updated every fortnight and that is how the information which we collected using our primary and secondary information is revalidated in real-time.

Step 4: QA/QC Process

After all the data collection and validation our team does a final level of quality check and quality assurance to get rid of any unwanted or undesired mistakes. This might include but is not limited to getting rid of the many typos, duplication of numbers, or missing any important information. The people involved in this process include technical content writers, research heads, and graphics people. Once this process is completed the title gets uploaded on our platform for our clients to read it.

Step 5: Final QC/QA Process:

This is the last process and comes when the client has ordered the study. In this process a final QA/QC is done before the study is emailed to the client. Since we believe in giving our clients a good experience of our research studies, therefore, to make sure that we do not lack at our end in any way humanly possible we do a final round of quality check and then dispatch the study to the client.
