And they’re doing it with Bandwidth. We strongly believe our rare global footprint, powerful cloud platform and scalable offerings have become the most compelling route to the cloud.”
The IDC MarketScape report identified leading providers in the CPaaS market that vary in scale and scope but have been innovators over the years and helped to establish the segment. The IDC MarketScape considered the diversity of portfolios, the size and growth of revenues, and the ability to provide a platform for developers, ISVs, and corporations (MNCs). The primary focus of this study is platforms’ ability to facilitate the rapid development of real-time communications services that are both easy to create and are scalable. These platforms facilitate programmable, application programming interface- (API-) based voice and messaging to enable the creation of personalized and cost-effective agile enterprise cloud applications.
