3. What are some major challenges faced by the company?
Ans. - The biggest challenge we have encountered as a cloud-based brand is lack of awareness about the services and opportunities. Now that cloud services and cloud telephony are a commonplace, everyone is aware of their advantages and the same can help increase the employee productivity.
However, in 2018, when we first started, the majority of our target audience were either unaware of it or had very less knowledge and were not very receptive to expanding their corporate infrastructure. The pandemic has made a huge impact by this catalysed transition from old systems to the cloud. People became aware of the necessity or significance of cloud systems during the epidemic when the work model shifted to remote working/work from home. As the leaders in the industry, we are still working to raise awareness of the cloud-based business model and are hopeful that the sector will see rise in investment opportunities and invite new ventures contributing significantly to the economic growth.
4. How will 5G impact the Cloud Services Sector?
Ans.- 5G is one the most sort after technological advancement in the sector. The internet speed is expected to grow by 10–20 times with 5G technology coming on the market, and additional devices, including IoT, will be made possible by increased network capacity and low latency.
Additionally, businesses and governmental agencies all over the world will benefit from the switch to 5G as the technology will generate enormous amounts of data that must be processed quickly. Mobile devices will be also be able to transfer massive amounts of data with ease thanks to the fast internet speed. In light of the same, the purpose of the cloud must be renewed as the deployment of independent 5G networks picks up steam in coming years. With announcement of the spectrum auction, the opportunities for investment and growth will also see a sharp rise in the country.
