Follow us on LinkedIn - Although there has been a lot of clamor over the potential of enterprise videoconferencing in the past few years, only recently did the technology wield an impact on the corporate world with businesses integrating the technology into the very fabric of business communications and processes. With the introduction of Apples FaceTime, YouTube, and Skype video call, video conferencing has taken on a sophisticated note and the trend is only accelerating with vendors actively collaborating on the technological and research front. Factors driving adoption and usage of the technology are productivity, quality, and level of engagement per interaction over video, all of which have increased in the past few years epitomized by high-end telepresence systems.


Long-term trends poised to influence the video conferencing market include increasing use of telepresence, and the anticipated increased interoperability between different network and video products. Clients are becoming more aware of the impact that telepresence can have on performance and enterprise communication infrastructure, and are looking for a greater return on their video investments. With the advancement of enterprise communications, end users have increased the expectations from telepresence solutions to not only provide seamless operations with their existing enterprise communications and video systems, but also interlace with other visual solutions much beyond the corporate boundaries.


Following the decline in sales during 2008 & 2009, primarily due to the economic recession, the global video conferencing market staged an encouraging comeback in the year 2010.

Resurgence in business activity, renewed focus on cost savings exerted by post recession cost wary companies, growing mobility of businesses, increasing number of mobile workforce and greenfield deployments among small-and medium-sized businesses (SMBs), are all factors, which will drive growth in the market over the next few years. The managed video conferencing services offering from vendors is also likely to enhance penetration levels as underserved SMB sector moves towards adopting this particular technology. Additionally, the market will also be boosted by fast-paced technology developments and innovations that are helping achieve improved video and audio quality. For instance, high definition video conferencing addresses, which are capable of addressing issues such as poor quality of sound and image resolution will encourage utilization and adoption rate of video conferencing among end-users. The market will also be driven by emergence of new application areas for video conferencing such as recruitments, and use in home office segment.
