Description

This IDC Market Perspective highlights the latest trends shaping the CPaaS market in India, the current scenario of network APIs, key emerging players, and strategic partnerships. It provides actionable considerations for CPaaS providers to leverage the full potential of the CPaaS market in India's evolving digital ecosystem. The CPaaS market in India is entering a growth phase, fueled by omni-channel engagement (i.e., WhatsApp and RCS), AI-driven automation, and regulatory compliance requirements. BFSI, retail, and healthcare are leading in CPaaS adoption, while SMEs are accelerating uptake through low-code platforms. Telecom companies are teaming up with CPaaS providers to offer secure, trusted services with verified identities, which is especially important for regulated industries. With 5G and generative AI, CPaaS is moving beyond simple messaging to become a smart platform for managing all enterprise communications."CPaaS has become the backbone for India's digital growth, where AI-driven automation, trusted telecom networks, and immersive 5G experiences converge to redefine how enterprises communicate and engage with customers," says Avinash Naga, research manager, Worldwide Telecommunications Research at IDC.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
