While the market share of leader RingCentral has held steady at around 20%, it is the rapid growth of Microsoft and Zoom that have driven the increased growth rate. Their market shares were almost negligible in 2019, but in 2020 the Microsoft subscriber base quickly grew to over a million with Zoom about to achieve the same milestone. As the market jumped by 41%, Microsoft and Zoom share of that growing market increased by almost ten percentage points during 2020. The other leading UCaaS vendors – 8x8, Mitel and Cisco – all saw strong double-digit subscriber growth in the year, but each lost market share as their increase in scale lagged overall market growth. Expanding subscriber bases at Fuze and LogMeIn were broadly in line with the overall market. While RingCentral is the leader in all segments from SMB through to large enterprise, Microsoft strength is primarily in the mid-market and Zoom is doing well in large enterprises.<br></p>]]></description> <pubDate>Wed, 05 May 2021 14:40 GMT</pubDate> <dc:identifier>2223635</dc:identifier> <dc:language>en</dc:language> <dc:publisher>GlobeNewswire Inc.</dc:publisher> <dc:contributor>Synergy Research Group</dc:contributor> <dc:modified>Wed, 05 May 2021 14:41 GMT</dc:modified> <media:content medium="image" type="image/jpeg" width="600" url="https://ml.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/f99c31a8-4595-4fba-ba16-49b3c626180c"> <media:text type="html"><![CDATA[<p> <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2021/05/05/2223635/0/en/UCaaS-Growth-Rate-Jumps-as-Microsoft-and-Zoom-Each-Quickly-Add-a-Million-Subscribers.html"> <img src="https://ml.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/f99c31a8-4595-4fba-ba16-49b3c626180c" width="600" align="left" border="0" alt="UCaaS 2020[1]" title="UCaaS Growth" /> </a> </p><br clear="all" />]]></media:text> <media:credit role="publishing company">GlobeNewswire Inc.</media:credit> </media:content> <dc:subject>Market Research Reports</dc:subject> <dc:keyword>#zoom</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#microsoft</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#RingCentral</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#8x8</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#Cisco</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#Mitel</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#Fuze</dc:keyword> </item> <item> <guid isPermaLink="true">https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2021/04/30/2220324/0/en/Amazon-and-Microsoft-Maintain-their-Grip-on-the-Market-but-Others-are-also-Growing-Rapidly.html</guid> <link>https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2021/04/30/2220324/0/en/Amazon-and-Microsoft-Maintain-their-Grip-on-the-Market-but-Others-are-also-Growing-Rapidly.html</link> <title>Amazon and Microsoft Maintain their Grip on the Market but Others are also Growing Rapidly</title> <description><![CDATA[<p align="left">RENO, Nev., April 29, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- New data from Synergy Research Group shows that Q1 enterprise spending on cloud infrastructure services was in excess of $39 billion, having increased by well over $2 billion from the previous quarter and up 37% from the first quarter of 2020. Notably, for the third successive quarter, the year-on-year growth rate increased, which is unusual for such a large, high-growth market. Microsoft has been slowly gaining ground on Amazon and the gap between their market shares has narrowed by two percentage points over the last year. Together these two market leaders continue to account for over half of worldwide cloud revenues. Beyond Amazon and Microsoft, top twelve players whose growth rates surpassed overall market growth are Alibaba, Google, Tencent and Baidu. The top twelve ranking is rounded out by IBM, Salesforce, Oracle, NTT, SAP and Fujitsu. All can be considered to have somewhat specialized, niche positions in the market compared to the biggest cloud providers.<br></p>]]></description> <pubDate>Fri, 30 Apr 2021 00:51 GMT</pubDate> <dc:identifier>2220324</dc:identifier> <dc:language>en</dc:language> <dc:publisher>GlobeNewswire Inc.</dc:publisher> <dc:contributor>Synergy Research Group</dc:contributor> <dc:modified>Fri, 30 Apr 2021 00:51 GMT</dc:modified> <media:content medium="image" type="image/jpeg" width="600" url="https://ml.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/5dda247c-2e92-412b-91af-9f27f03d88d8"> <media:text type="html"><![CDATA[<p> <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2021/04/30/2220324/0/en/Amazon-and-Microsoft-Maintain-their-Grip-on-the-Market-but-Others-are-also-Growing-Rapidly.html"> <img src="https://ml.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/5dda247c-2e92-412b-91af-9f27f03d88d8" width="600" align="left" border="0" alt="Cloud Services Q1 2021" title="Cloud Infrastructure Services Growth" /> </a> </p><br clear="all" />]]></media:text> <media:credit role="publishing company">GlobeNewswire Inc.</media:credit> </media:content> <dc:subject>Research Analysis and Reports</dc:subject> <dc:keyword>#amazon</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#microsoft</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#google</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#Alibaba</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#ibm</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#sap</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#Fujitsu</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#salesforce</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#NTT</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#Baidu</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#tencent</dc:keyword> </item> <item> <guid isPermaLink="true">https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/12/16/2146382/0/en/Microsoft-and-Zoom-Help-to-Drive-Increased-UCaaS-Market-Growth-Rate.html</guid> <link>https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/12/16/2146382/0/en/Microsoft-and-Zoom-Help-to-Drive-Increased-UCaaS-Market-Growth-Rate.html</link> <title>Microsoft and Zoom Help to Drive Increased UCaaS Market Growth Rate</title> <description><![CDATA[<p>RENO, Nev., Dec. 16, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- New data from Synergy Research Group shows that worldwide UCaaS revenues grew by 30% in the third quarter, marking the fourth consecutive quarter in which the year-on-year growth rate has increased.

Amazon is the frontrunner in four of the five APAC sub-regions, while Alibaba has a strong lead in China and is also well placed in the rest of East Asia, South & Southeast Asia and Oceania. Microsoft is ranked second in three of the sub-regions, has a strong position in Japan and is placed third in the overall APAC region. The rest of the top-ranked cloud providers are either global players with a position in multiple markets - Google and IBM - or companies with a strong position in their home markets. Beyond Alibaba the next five cloud providers in China are all local companies, while Fujitsu and NTT are well placed in Japan, Naver and KT feature heavily in South Korea, and Telstra is a challenger in the Australian market. China is by far the largest market in the region, helping Tencent and Baidu to feature among the region’s leaders. While all sub-regions are growing strongly, it is South & Southeast Asia that has the highest growth rate, thanks in large part to India.</p>]]></description> <pubDate>Thu, 17 Sep 2020 01:28 GMT</pubDate> <dc:identifier>2094911</dc:identifier> <dc:language>en</dc:language> <dc:publisher>GlobeNewswire Inc.</dc:publisher> <dc:contributor>Synergy Research Group</dc:contributor> <dc:modified>Thu, 17 Sep 2020 01:27 GMT</dc:modified> <media:content medium="image" type="image/jpeg" width="600" url="https://ml.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/33946525-046c-4f3e-9abb-40e875428c18"> <media:text type="html"><![CDATA[<p> <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/09/17/2094911/0/en/AWS-and-Alibaba-Lead-the-APAC-Cloud-Market-Microsoft-Tencent-and-Google-in-the-Chasing-Pack.html"> <img src="https://ml.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/33946525-046c-4f3e-9abb-40e875428c18" width="600" align="left" border="0" alt="APAC CIS Q220 #2[1]" title="Cloud Services in APAC" /> </a> </p><br clear="all" />]]></media:text> <media:credit role="publishing company">GlobeNewswire Inc.</media:credit> </media:content> <dc:subject>Research Analysis and Reports</dc:subject> <dc:keyword>#Baidu</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#amazon</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#tencent</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#Fujitsu</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#microsoft</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#Alibaba</dc:keyword> </item> <item> <guid isPermaLink="true">https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/09/10/2091379/0/en/Cloud-Providers-Rescue-an-Otherwise-Soft-Data-Center-Market-in-Q2.html</guid> <link>https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/09/10/2091379/0/en/Cloud-Providers-Rescue-an-Otherwise-Soft-Data-Center-Market-in-Q2.html</link> <title>Cloud Providers Rescue an Otherwise Soft Data Center Market in Q2</title> <description><![CDATA[<p align="left">RENO, Nev., Sept. 09, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- New Q2 data from Synergy Research Group shows that worldwide spend on data center hardware and software increased by 7% from the second quarter of 2019, thanks to a 25% jump in spending on public cloud infrastructure, which pushed it to an all-time high.

In Q1 USB video conferencing systems accounted for 36% of the video conferencing market revenues, up from 21% a year ago. Meanwhile the USB share of video rooms jumped to 41%, up from 35% a year ago. USB technology is cheaper than the more traditional video codec systems and the ability to plug into VaaS services is an added boon. Cisco and Poly continue to lead the market for traditional video conferencing systems, while Logitech is a clear market leader in USB, with a 65% market share in Q1. Leadership of the high-growth USB market has enabled Logitech to now claim second place in the overall video conferencing market, second only to Cisco.<br></p>]]></description> <pubDate>Mon, 22 Jun 2020 15:42 GMT</pubDate> <dc:identifier>2051433</dc:identifier> <dc:language>en</dc:language> <dc:publisher>GlobeNewswire Inc.</dc:publisher> <dc:contributor>Synergy Research Group</dc:contributor> <dc:modified>Mon, 22 Jun 2020 15:42 GMT</dc:modified> <media:content medium="image" type="image/jpeg" width="600" url="https://ml.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/45f12015-2a98-4219-9c94-8307bf02dbfb"> <media:text type="html"><![CDATA[<p> <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/06/22/2051433/0/en/USB-is-Gaining-Ground-in-the-Video-Conferencing-Market-Logitech-Rides-the-Wave.html"> <img src="https://ml.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/45f12015-2a98-4219-9c94-8307bf02dbfb" width="600" align="left" border="0" alt="VC Q120[3]" title="Video Conferencing Trends" /> </a> </p><br clear="all" />]]></media:text> <media:credit role="publishing company">GlobeNewswire Inc.</media:credit> </media:content> <dc:subject>Product / Services Announcement</dc:subject> <dc:keyword>#COVID-19</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#USB</dc:keyword> </item> <item> <guid isPermaLink="true">https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/06/16/2048896/0/en/Q1-Conferencing-SaaS-Data-Shows-VaaS-Growing-and-Zoom-Zooming.html</guid> <link>https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/06/16/2048896/0/en/Q1-Conferencing-SaaS-Data-Shows-VaaS-Growing-and-Zoom-Zooming.html</link> <title>Q1 Conferencing SaaS Data Shows VaaS Growing and Zoom Zooming</title> <description><![CDATA[<p align="left">RENO, Nev., June 16, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- New data from Synergy Research shows the Q1 market for conferencing SaaS growing by 17% year on year to reach over $800 million, with all of the growth being down to a single vendor – Zoom. While other major vendors saw their revenues flat or somewhat reduced, Zoom grew by 148% from the first quarter of 2019. This is mostly due to the structure of the market, which consists of two main segments. The larger segment is the more traditional web/video conferencing, which is led by Cisco, LogMeIn and Microsoft. Revenues from this segment were almost flat, declining by 1% from last year. The smaller VaaS (Video as a Service) segment, on the other hand, jumped by 80% and is dominated by Zoom, whose Q1 market share was almost ten times the size of its nearest competitor. Overall, Cisco does still maintain its number one ranking in conferencing SaaS. </p>]]></description> <pubDate>Tue, 16 Jun 2020 13:47 GMT</pubDate> <dc:identifier>2048896</dc:identifier> <dc:language>en</dc:language> <dc:publisher>GlobeNewswire Inc.</dc:publisher> <dc:contributor>Synergy Research Group</dc:contributor> <dc:modified>Tue, 16 Jun 2020 13:47 GMT</dc:modified> <media:content medium="image" type="image/jpeg" width="600" url="https://ml.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/76303f7c-df1f-4cb3-a38d-b8217e0c4347"> <media:text type="html"><![CDATA[<p> <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/06/16/2048896/0/en/Q1-Conferencing-SaaS-Data-Shows-VaaS-Growing-and-Zoom-Zooming.html"> <img src="https://ml.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/76303f7c-df1f-4cb3-a38d-b8217e0c4347" width="600" align="left" border="0" alt="VaaS Q120" title="Conferencing SaaS Q1 2020" /> </a> </p><br clear="all" />]]></media:text> <media:credit role="publishing company">GlobeNewswire Inc.</media:credit> </media:content> <dc:subject>Research Analysis and Reports</dc:subject> <dc:keyword>#zoom</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#Cisco</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#logmein</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#SaaS</dc:keyword> </item> <item> <guid isPermaLink="true">https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/06/12/2047510/0/en/Q1-Spending-on-Public-Cloud-Hardware-Software-Up-Spending-on-Enterprise-Infrastructure-Down.html</guid> <link>https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/06/12/2047510/0/en/Q1-Spending-on-Public-Cloud-Hardware-Software-Up-Spending-on-Enterprise-Infrastructure-Down.html</link> <title>Q1 Spending on Public Cloud Hardware & Software Up; Spending on Enterprise Infrastructure Down</title> <description><![CDATA[<p align="left">RENO, Nev., June 12, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- New Q1 data from Synergy Research Group shows that worldwide spend on data center hardware and software declined by 2% from the first quarter of 2019, bucking a steady growth trend as the market was adversely impacted by COVID-19.

The first quarter always drops substantially relative to a seasonal peak in Q4, but the sequential decline of 23% was unusually sharp. Q1 revenues of $9.1 billion were down 14% from the first quarter of 2019 and were the lowest seen since the first quarter of 2013. Ethernet switches, enterprise routers and service provider routers all saw double digit declines in Q1 relative to 2019. Cisco’s market share in switches and routers was 51% in Q1, meaning that for eight of the last twelve quarters it has been over the 50% mark. Across the three main markets, Cisco’s Q1 share was 57% for Ethernet switches, 65% for enterprise routers and 35% for service provider routers. Behind Cisco the ranking of vendors was different in each of the three markets, but in aggregate Cisco is followed by Huawei, Nokia, Juniper, Arista Networks and HPE. Beyond this leading group, other active vendors include Ericsson, Extreme, H3C and ZTE. </p>]]></description> <pubDate>Thu, 28 May 2020 21:36 GMT</pubDate> <dc:identifier>2040614</dc:identifier> <dc:language>en</dc:language> <dc:publisher>GlobeNewswire Inc.</dc:publisher> <dc:contributor>Synergy Research Group</dc:contributor> <dc:modified>Thu, 28 May 2020 21:36 GMT</dc:modified> <media:content medium="image" type="image/jpeg" width="600" url="https://ml.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/c07c9e40-6b70-4431-b032-f307de437ae7"> <media:text type="html"><![CDATA[<p> <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/05/28/2040614/0/en/Switch-Router-Revenues-Take-a-Billion-Dollar-COVID-19-Hit-Cisco-Market-Share-Remains-Stable.html"> <img src="https://ml.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/c07c9e40-6b70-4431-b032-f307de437ae7" width="600" align="left" border="0" alt="S&R Q120" title="Switch and Router Market Sizing" /> </a> </p><br clear="all" />]]></media:text> <media:credit role="publishing company">GlobeNewswire Inc.</media:credit> </media:content> <dc:subject>Company Announcement</dc:subject> <dc:keyword>#COVID-19</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#Cisco</dc:keyword> </item> <item> <guid isPermaLink="true">https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/05/07/2029605/0/en/Amazon-Microsoft-Lead-the-Cloud-Market-in-all-Major-European-Countries.html</guid> <link>https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/05/07/2029605/0/en/Amazon-Microsoft-Lead-the-Cloud-Market-in-all-Major-European-Countries.html</link> <title>Amazon & Microsoft Lead the Cloud Market in all Major European Countries</title> <description><![CDATA[<p align="justify">RENO, Nev., May 07, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- New Q1 data from Synergy Research Group shows that Amazon is the leading cloud provider in Europe and is also the leading company in all of the major individual country markets, based on cloud infrastructure service revenues. Microsoft is the second ranked cloud provider across the board. Beyond the top two, the rankings vary. The third ranked cloud provider in Europe is Google. It is also the third ranked cloud provider in many major countries, though in France, for example, it lines up behind both OVH and Orange. IBM is the fourth ranked provider in Europe as a whole and almost inevitably features somewhere in the top six in each individual country. Salesforce, Rackspace and Oracle are global providers that feature further down the country rankings, with Salesforce placing fifth across all of Europe. Telcos are often heavily featured in their local markets and Deutsche Telekom, Orange and KPN all rank fourth in their home countries. Among European telcos, Deutsche Telekom is the largest cloud provider thanks to a strong position in Germany and smaller operations in multiple other countries, which help it to place sixth overall across all of Europe.<br></p>]]></description> <pubDate>Thu, 07 May 2020 14:32 GMT</pubDate> <dc:identifier>2029605</dc:identifier> <dc:language>en</dc:language> <dc:publisher>GlobeNewswire Inc.</dc:publisher> <dc:contributor>Synergy Research Group</dc:contributor> <dc:modified>Thu, 07 May 2020 14:32 GMT</dc:modified> <media:content medium="image" type="image/jpeg" width="600" url="https://ml.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/5d1edd1e-dc3c-4847-9fc0-23a5e0eb20d5"> <media:text type="html"><![CDATA[<p> <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/05/07/2029605/0/en/Amazon-Microsoft-Lead-the-Cloud-Market-in-all-Major-European-Countries.html"> <img src="https://ml.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/5d1edd1e-dc3c-4847-9fc0-23a5e0eb20d5" width="600" align="left" border="0" alt="EUR CIS Q120" title="European Cloud Services" /> </a> </p><br clear="all" />]]></media:text> <media:credit role="publishing company">GlobeNewswire Inc.</media:credit> </media:content> <dc:subject>Company Announcement</dc:subject> <dc:keyword>#amazon</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#microsoft</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#google</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#cloud</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#ibm</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#salesforce</dc:keyword> </item> <item> <guid isPermaLink="true">https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/04/30/2025920/0/en/COVID-19-Fails-to-Dent-Aggressive-Growth-in-Cloud-Spending-Half-of-the-Q1-Market-Belongs-to-Amazon-Microsoft.html</guid> <link>https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/04/30/2025920/0/en/COVID-19-Fails-to-Dent-Aggressive-Growth-in-Cloud-Spending-Half-of-the-Q1-Market-Belongs-to-Amazon-Microsoft.html</link> <title>COVID-19 Fails to Dent Aggressive Growth in Cloud Spending; Half of the Q1 Market Belongs to Amazon & Microsoft</title> <description><![CDATA[<p align="left">RENO, Nev., April 30, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- New data from Synergy Research Group shows that Q1 spend on cloud infrastructure services reached $29 billion, up 37% from the first quarter of 2019. This was in line with the expected market growth rate and showed no meaningful negative impact as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Indeed, anecdotal evidence points to some COVID-19-related market tailwinds as additional enterprise workloads are pushed onto public clouds. Meanwhile Amazon growth continued to largely mirror overall market growth and its worldwide market share was 32% in the quarter. Growth at second-ranked Microsoft once again outpaced the overall market by over twenty percentage points and its market share has increased by almost three percentage points in the last four quarters, reaching 18%. Behind these two market leaders, Google, Alibaba and Tencent are substantially outpacing overall market growth and are gaining market share. All three saw revenues increase by 45% or more year on year. Four other cloud providers have substantial market share but are somewhat niche players and typically have lower growth rates – IBM, Salesforce, Oracle and Rackspace. There is then a long tail of cloud providers, each with a small market share.<br></p>]]></description> <pubDate>Thu, 30 Apr 2020 23:59 GMT</pubDate> <dc:identifier>2025920</dc:identifier> <dc:language>en</dc:language> <dc:publisher>GlobeNewswire Inc.</dc:publisher> <dc:contributor>Synergy Research Group</dc:contributor> <dc:modified>Thu, 30 Apr 2020 23:59 GMT</dc:modified> <media:content medium="image" type="image/jpeg" width="600" url="https://ml.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/39393340-e06d-4f77-83cb-59fda082ae2b"> <media:text type="html"><![CDATA[<p> <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/04/30/2025920/0/en/COVID-19-Fails-to-Dent-Aggressive-Growth-in-Cloud-Spending-Half-of-the-Q1-Market-Belongs-to-Amazon-Microsoft.html"> <img src="https://ml.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/39393340-e06d-4f77-83cb-59fda082ae2b" width="600" align="left" border="0" alt="CIS Q1 2020[2]" title="Q1 2020 Cloud Services" /> </a> </p><br clear="all" />]]></media:text> <media:credit role="publishing company">GlobeNewswire Inc.</media:credit> </media:content> <dc:subject>Company Announcement</dc:subject> <dc:keyword>#coronavirus</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#COVID-19</dc:keyword> <dc:keyword>#cloud</dc:keyword> </item> </channel> </rss>
