The market for global mass notification software is anticipated to expand at a significant CAGR of 17.3% during the forecast period 2022-2028. The increasing adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and cloud-based components for notification systems are anticipated to increase the demand for software that ensures the compatibility of devices and operating systems across a variety of applications.
The software utilized in mass notification systems necessitates an efficient communication infrastructure and the necessary bandwidth to simultaneously transmit multiple notifications. The public safety division collaborates with bureaus, first responders, crime labs, and commercial carriers in order to ensure the safety of the population, as a result of the government’s heightened awareness of the need to do so.
Factors propelling the growth of the market include the increasing implementation of Internet Protocol (IP)-based notification devices and the high adoption of mass notification solutions across hospitals and medical facilities. Moreover, the soaring adoption of advanced technologies such as IoT, cloud computing, and data analytics across various industry verticals is accelerating the demand for mass notification software.
These innovative technologies offer numerous options and capabilities beyond conventional applications by enabling user interaction and strengthening safety measures. Additionally, emergency notification software allows government agencies, city administrations, and enterprises to send one-way messages to people and alert them in case of any emergency, upcoming event, or natural calamities.
However, growing digitalization, security system decentralization, and interconnected devices have given hackers new entry points for stealing real-time information. To combat the increasing number of cyber-attacks, the use of mass notification channels such as mail is expected to remain a challenge in the near future. Moreover, the recent COVID-19 outbreak has offered significant opportunities to the mass notification solution providers to grow. For instance, amid the COVID-19 outbreak in 2020, Regroup Mass Notification partnered with CivicPlus to offer several cities and states across the nation risk-free access to its platform.
The scalability of cloud-based mass notification is gaining traction
Easy deployment and minimal capital requirements facilitate cloud-based deployment. The growing demand for scalable, easy-to-use, and cost-effective mass notification systems is expected to fuel the cloud segment’s growth. Cloud-based mass notification solutions also help businesses save money and increase employee productivity. In the coming years, cloud-based deployment will gain popularity across large enterprises and small and medium enterprises. Large companies need complex, scalable security systems, and services.
These organizations have multiple locations in various geographies and thus require a solution that can seamlessly integrate security operations on a large scale. Moreover, demand for mass notification solutions in SMEs is expected to grow faster due to increased demand for automated voice, text, and email communications to help authorities communicate with people in an emergency. Government & Defense is expected to dominate the market due to the adoption of mass notification system technology for public safety and population protection.
The Asia Pacific is witnessing soaring demand for mass notification solutions
The Asia Pacific region is expected to observe an increase in the demand for mass notification software as a result of massive government investments in the development of public safety and security solutions. Moreover, a large number of enterprises are based in major economies of the region such as China, India, Japan, South Korea, and Australia which are further augmenting the regional demand for mass notification solutions.
In Europe, it is anticipated that the mass notification market will hold a considerable position on account of the growing interest in the provision of mobile-based mass notification applications to offer individuals effective safety and security. Furthermore, the North America market is being driven by an increase in the demand for notifications and alerts to be delivered more quickly and the prioritization of alert messages in an emergency situation. Adequate availability of Wi-Fi, IP Ethernet, radiofrequency, GPS, and mobile phones are driving the market growth in North America.
