Market Report Description

The Global Cloud Managed Services Market size is expected to reach $153.5 billion by 2027, rising at a market growth of 10.3% CAGR during the forecast period.

Cloud Managed Services is the outsourcing of everyday IT management for cloud-based services and technical assistance to a third-party organization that automates and improves business operations. Internal IT staff of a company doesn’t always have the expertise needed to adequately track and manage a cloud system. Companies frequently involve a third-party cloud managed services provider to oversee cloud security, computing, storage, network operations, application stacks, vendors, and other aspects of the cloud. Managed network operations, cloud management, managed security activities, IT life cycle management, and application and mobility management are some of the services included in cloud managed services.

The market for cloud managed services is expected to grow as firms seek to reduce operational and infrastructure expenses associated with business processes. Outsourcing cloud services to a third-party allows firms to concentrate on their core capabilities, increasing overall productivity. The growing use of big data has resulted in the increased demand for managed analytical services and cloud storage. Furthermore, the growing demand for dependability and scalability may drive the demand for these services. These services allow businesses to scale up and down their activities by giving custom-made offers to the available services.

The need for cloud-based managed security services is projected to increase as companies such as the American Red Cross, Netflix, and Rovio progressively use a wide range of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications and other cloud-based services. Increased mobile device adoption and the trend of BYOD in numerous enterprises are also expected to fuel demand for this industry, which will control these devices for usage and security.

Due to important breakthroughs in big data, mobility services, and other areas, the market has seen rapid expansion in recent years. The growing trend of digitalization and mobility among businesses around the world will provide enormous chances for market players to increase their profits.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The COVID-19 has had a variety of consequences on the worldwide managed business services sector, including direct effects on production and demand, supply chain and marketplace disruptions, and financial impacts on enterprises and financial markets. The usage of cloud, AI, and big data has grown as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Many businesses have created and adopted new policies and regulations regarding remote work. The implications of SARS-CoV-2 virus are different on different age groups, thus different sectors of the technology industry are affected in a variety of ways. Companies which used to offer technological solutions to highly affected sectors during Covid-19 such as travel, retail, entertainment and hospitality were adversely affected during the pandemic, whereas, companies which provided remote-working solutions experienced growth even during the pandemic.

Market Growth Factors:

Rise in the inclination towards management along with the emergence of latest technologies

Business owners have very little time to ponder about the IT infrastructure and its functionalities. But the management of IT systems is essential for business continuity. This problem is solved by Managed Service Providers (MSPs). They can proactively fix any issues present in IT systems. Majority of the MSPs promise 24*7 monitoring to attract customers. Security solutions keep a check on IT systems to find any potential danger or disturbances. Bugs and other issues are troubleshot and removed before they can cause any damage to the business. This helps the business owners in focusing on their core functionalities without any stress regarding the IT systems and maintenance.

Increase in awareness among end-users

Managed cloud services will be ahead of all technologies as organizations create plans and adopt new approaches to meet their IT and network needs. Various organizations already use cloud servers to run their IT applications such as accounting, finance customer relationship management, and many more. The high adoption of cloud solutions for the purpose of setting up and managing business operations is changing the state of cloud adoption around the world. For example, Betabrand, a clothing company based in the US, transferred its operations Google Cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, when Black Friday was on the horizon in 2017. This helped them manage peak loads on the day without any issues. The market for cloud-managed services is supposed to grow with widespread adoption among businesses. Along with that, the rise in the awareness among companies regarding the benefits of adopting cloud managed services would escalate the growth of the market over the forecast period.

Marketing Restraining Factor:

Privacy and Data security

The biggest drawback of involving several third parties to implement cloud managed services is the security and confidentiality concerns. This includes infrastructures in mobility, networks, endpoints, databases, cloud, web applications, and virtualization. As a result, critical business details are at the risk of exposure. Thus, for many companies, their apprehension regarding security and privacy is the topmost constraint for adopting cloud managed services. However, MSPs have tackled this issue by ensuring proper privacy and security measures are in place to safeguard the data which has to be deployed over cloud. End-to-end network protection and encryption are few of the methods employed to give customers added security.
