CPaaS is making waves in the enterprise communications space

With digital communication channels on the rise, enabling meaningful connections between brands and their customers at scale is getting more and more complex. Therefore, the need for solutions that combine simplicity, flexibility, control, and personalization capabilities while addressing enterprise-wide use cases — like CPaaS — has never been greater.

In the September 2022 Gartner Market Guide for Communications Platform as a Service*, Gartner predicts that “by 2026, 90% of global enterprises will leverage CPaaS as a strategic IT skill set to maintain digital competency, up from 30% in 2022.”

The combination of robust communications capabilities, flexibility, and ease of use through APIs is enabling drastic improvements in the way enterprises communicate and build relationships with their audiences.

With CPaaS, businesses can finally meet customers’ expectations for seamless, meaningful interactions on the channels they’re on while streamlining their communications infrastructure with agile solutions — let’s take a closer look.

3 ways CPaaS helps transform enterprise customer communications and drive sustainable growth

CPaaS caters to a large range of enterprise communications needs. Whether you’re looking to boost the impact of your marketing efforts, enhance service delivery, enable secure user verification, or deliver next-level customer care, this powerful technology can help you reach your goals and strike the right balance between robust capabilities, agility, and simplicity.

1. Simplify your communications infrastructure

Evolving legacy communications tools to keep up with changing business requirements is costly and time-consuming. CPaaS takes the headache out of the picture, allowing businesses to quickly integrate the communications features they need into existing applications. This means you don’t need an entire IT team to get up and running!

2. Meet shifting customer expectations

CPaaS also gives businesses the flexibility they need to build a customer-centric organization and adapt to changing needs and engagement preferences. Communications APIs make it easy to scale up and enable interactions on any channel your customers use, so you can deliver seamless communication experiences at every step of their journey.

3. Optimize operational efficiency

From smart contact centers to conversational AI or marketing automation, CPaaS can be a true game-changer in streamlining internal processes and empowering your teams to work more efficiently, all while optimizing costs.

While CPaaS adoption is increasing tremendously, finding a trusted partner remains challenging for many organizations — that’s where the Gartner Magic Quadrant comes in.
