Metrigy defines CCaaS as customer interaction software delivered as a service over a cloud-based platform; this includes Automatic Call Distributors (ACDs), Interactive Voice Response (IVR), predictive dialer, artificial intelligence (AI), channel integration, etc. CCaaS solutions are typically multi-tenant, with today’s platforms developed by service providers to run in the cloud using microservices architecture.
The global market for CCaaS was $5.6 billion in 2022, up 30% year-over-year. Metrigy forecasts the market to grow at a 12% CAGR from 2022 to 2027, reaching $9.7 billion by 2027. The CCaaS market is highly competitive, with providers of varying sizes, capabilities, and reach—some are global, and others are regional. Some providers are large and have broad portfolios, and others are smaller, with niche offerings.
In determining companies in the CCaaS MetriRank, market share is important to overall leadership, but financial strength and customer sentiment are significant at setting providers apart in the rankings. Having the right mix of features and capabilities is critical, although most of the top-tier providers share common capabilities today. However, 2023 is shaping up to be an important year of enhanced product development, particularly around AI, which will become a significant factor moving forward.
