The general macro-economic environment has a significant impact on the cloud-based Unified Communications services market. Companies have limited capital available for investment, but at the same time consider Unified Communications deployment as they look for ways to cut the costs and increase productivity. Small businesses as well as large enterprises are interested in communications delivered as a service.

"While PBX vendors see a significant revenue decline, economic recession generates strong interest in alternative delivery methods," notes Dorota Oviedo, Research Analyst for Frost & Sullivan Unified Communications & Collaboration group. "Down economy favouring OPEX-based solutions coupled with market's need for flexibility and focus on core competencies, all boost cloud-based Unified Communications services adoption."
