"CSPs' spending via the hybrid SaaS model will increase at a projected CAGR of 18.7% during the forecast period."
Analysys Mason forecasts that communications service provider (CSP) spending on telecoms software solutions and services via non-traditional pricing models is projected to increase to USD13.6 billion by 2029, up from USD6 billion in 2023. This growth will be driven by CSPs’ need for pricing models that require less upfront capital than traditional models. The reduced investment will help to de-risk the adoption of software solutions, and will increase the viability of SaaS and hybrid SaaS deployments.
