PALO ALTO, CA, Dec 17, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
The latest study by The Radicati Group, Inc., "Instant Messaging
Market, 2012-2016," offers an in-depth analysis of the Instant
Messaging market. Instant Messaging (IM) solutions provide real-time
communication between two or more users on a network. These solutions
are increasingly blurring the line between IM and Unified
Communications platforms by adding more robust voice and video chat
capabilities, as well as greater mobile device functionality and
social networking integration.
The study categorizes the market into four segments: Public IM
Networks, Enterprise IM, IM Management and Security, and Mobile IM.
The study also provides detailed user installed base and revenue
market share by vendor, four-year forecasts, breakouts by region and
business size, and an in-depth analysis of business use of Public IM.
This study provides an analysis of leading market players: Actiance,
Apple, Bloomberg, Cisco, Facebook, Global Relay, Good Technology,
Google, IBM, Microsoft, Research In Motion, Skype, Symantec, Tencent,
Yahoo!, and others.
According to the study, there are over 3.1 billion Instant Messaging
accounts worldwide in 2012, growing to over 3.8 billion by 2016.
