Telecom Service Assurance Market by Software (Probe Monitoring, Fault & Event Management, Quality & Service Management, Network Performance Monitoring, and Workforce Management), Service, Organization Size, Deployment Type - Global Forecast to 2021
[151 Pages Report] The telecom service assurance market size is estimated to grow from USD 4.30 Billion in 2016 to USD 7.01 Billion by 2021, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 10.3%. The need for high optimization & increased cost savings, voluminous increase in the number of subscribers, and ability to measure the performance of a service & Quality of Service (QoS) are some of the factors fueling the growth of the market across the globe. The network performance monitoring segment in software is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period, while the probe monitoring segment is estimated to have the largest market size in 2016 in the market. The base year considered for this study is 2015 and the forecast period considered is 20162021. The voluminous increase in the number of subscribers, need for high optimization & increased cost savings, and ability to measure the performance of a service & Quality of Service (QoS) have led to the increased demand for telecom service assurance solutions.
Market Dynamics
Voluminous increase in the number of subscribers
The biggest driver in the telecom service assurance market is the explosion in the number of smart devices, which is contributing to a voluminous increase in the number of subscribers. The need to stay constantly connected for personal and business purposes has led to increase in connectivity devices such as mobile phones, laptops, and tablets, which continue to be developed. Moreover, the increasing trends of bring your own device (BYOD) policy and faster internet connection speed are majorly contributing to the increasing subscriber base. With every new device launched in the market, CSPs will have to deal with the incremental numbers of new subscribers on their networks. Those new numbers mean more traffic requiring monitoring for service assurance. According to a GSMA survey report, The Mobile Economy 2016, there are approximately 7.3 billion mobile connections present across the globe, whereas the actual unique subscriber base was 4.7 billion in 2015. The number of mobile subscriptions is expected to exceed the population in many countries by 2021. In emerging regions of MEA, Latin America, and APAC, CSPs are still experiencing strong mobile subscriber growth rates. To meet the needs of the increased number of subscribers, telecom companies have been investing heavily in telecom service assurance solutions.
Resistance to adoption of new technologies
Many telecom companies still use the old back-office systems that are incapable of handling the new network requirements. To cater to the growing network requirements, new and advanced service assurance solutions are needed. However, the switching cost involved in adopting new systems is relatively very high. The reason is that such an adoption might involve high recurring investment over the years, which makes many telecom companies reluctant about this transformation. Hence, performance is hampered, which causes a big hurdle in growth of the telecom service assurance market. In some countries, labor laws limit the actions executives can take to redistribute labor resource, which could involve workforce reductions in some business units. However, more often, managers are unwilling to take tough decisions to reshape the organization. Thus, the unwillingness to restructure existing departments to efficiently support next-generation services is a significant barrier to the adoption of telecom service assurance solutions.
Objectives of the Study
- To define, describe, and forecast the global telecom service assurance market on the basis of solutions (software and service), deployment types, organization size, and regions
- To provide a detailed information regarding the major factors influencing the growth of the market (drivers, restraints, opportunities, and challenges)
- To forecast the market size and growth rate of market segments with respect to five main regions: North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific (APAC), Middle East & Africa (MEA), and Latin America
- To analyze the opportunities in the market for stakeholders and provide company profiles of the key players in the market to comprehensively analyze the core competencies and draw competitive landscape for the market
- To track and analyze competitive developments, such as Mergers & Acquisitions (M&A), new product developments, and Research & Development (R&D) activities in the market
The research methodology used to estimate and forecast the telecom service assurance market begins with capturing data on key vendor revenues through secondary sources, such as annual reports, press releases, associations such as Groupe Special Mobile Association (GSMA), and databases such as Factiva, BusinessWeek, company websites, and news articles. The vendor offerings are also taken into consideration to determine the market segmentation. The bottom-up procedure is employed to arrive at the overall market size of the global market from the revenue of the key players in the market. After arriving at the overall market size, the total market is split into several segments and subsegments, which are then verified through primary research by conducting extensive interviews with key people, such as Chief Executive Officers (CEOs), Vice Presidents (VPs), directors, and executives. The data triangulation and market breakdown procedures are employed to complete the overall market engineering process and arrive at the exact statistics for all segments. The breakdown of primary profiles is depicted in the figure below:

The managed services segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period in the service segment. The professional services segment is estimated to have the largest market size in 2016. Due to the increasing number of subscribers globally, Communication Service Providers (CSPs) are innovating new services, which need to be compatible with the current configuration of the existing system. Thus, among professional services, the system integration services segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period and is also estimated to have the largest market size in 2016.
The Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR in the telecom service assurance market during the forecast period. The medium-sized companies are significantly growing in this market by shifting from traditional service assurance solutions to next-generation service assurance platform. They are more inclined towards cloud-based solutions for enhancing their end-user experience, QoS, and service performance with the optimal utilization of resources.
The cloud deployment type is expected to grow at the highest rate in the telecom service assurance market during the forecast period. This type of deployment requires less capital investment, offers high scalability, and could be offered through subscription-based pricing models, thus having the fastest growth rate.
North America is estimated to have the largest market share in 2016, whereas the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region is expected to grow at the highest CAGR from 2016 to 2021 in the telecom service assurance market. The growth in the market size of North America is driven by the expansion of Long-Term Evolution (LTE) networks in the region due to which CSPs are looking for new innovative solutions to standardize their new 4G/LTE business models, provide better customer service, and measure the service quality & performance. The key reason for the high growth rate in APAC is the enormous population of this region, which has led to an extensive pool of subscriber base for the telecom companies.
The adoption of telecom service assurance market is increasing in the market owing to the exponential rise in the number of subscribers and the need to measure the QoS. However, resistance to modify organization and adopt new technologies & data privacy issues are acting as barriers in the adoption of telecom service assurance solutions.
