Workspace as a Service

Education and Healthcare Sectors to Create Promising Growth Opportunities for WaaS Solutions

WaaS solutions are finding an increasing level of adoption across industries such as banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI), travel and hospitality, healthcare, IT and telecommunication, manufacturing, retail, education, and a number of government sectors. Of these, BFSI is presently the dominant end-use industry. The sector contributed US$2.25 bn to the overall revenues of the global WaaS market in 2014.

However, the education and healthcare sectors are expected to lead to the most promising growth opportunities for WaaS solutions and applications in the next few years. Over the period between 2015 and 2024, the WaaS market in the education and healthcare industries is expected to expand at CAGRs of 13.0% and 12.9%, respectively. The rising use of industry-specific virtualized applications in these industries will drive the demand for WaaS solutions.

North America to Retain Dominance but MEA to Offer Prime Opportunities for Future Growth

In terms of geography, North America is presently the most prominent region for the WaaS market. In 2014, North America emerged as the largest revenue contributor to the global market, holding a valuation of US$3.01 bn. The region is expected to exhibit excellent growth and retain its dominance over the next few years as well. Europe followed North America in terms of revenue contribution to the global market in the said year.

These regions are, however, expected to lose prominence to emerging economies across Asia Pacific and Middle East and Africa over the period between 2015 and 2024. The rising number of small- and medium-sized enterprises in these regions will be the key force triggering the increased adoption of WaaS solutions. According to a recent study undertaken by Parallels SMB Cloud Insights (U.S.) in 2014, the demand for WaaS services such as virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) for small- and medium-sized businesses (with employee strength of 20-99 employees and 100-999 employees) was 19% and 33%, respectively, in 2014. By 2017, these numbers are expected to rise to 24% and 47%.
