Nokia Topped VoLTE Market in 2017, Ericsson and Huawei Follow, According to Dell'Oro GroupVoLTE Market Expected to Experience Double-Digit Growth in 2018 REDWOOD CITY, Calif., March 29, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- According to a recently published report from Dell’Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the telecommunications, networks, and data center IT industries, Nokia topped the VoLTE market in 2017 with Ericsson and Huawei following in second and third. The VoLTE market is expected to experience double-digit growth in 2018. “2017 was a tough year for VoLTE,” said David Bolan, Senior Analyst at Dell’Oro Group. “This was due to overcapacity in the network and delayed spending by service providers that were evaluating NFV strategies for the coming years. In 2018, leading service providers around the world have started to implement their digital transformation and we believe this will increase VoLTE demand by a double-digit percentage rate. Also, another factor contributing to the growth in VoLTE infrastructure this year is the continuing demand in markets like India among other countries where VoLTE is becoming a standard service – as opposed to a premium service – that is activated in new handset sales going forward,” Bolan continued.
