Unified IT Monitoring Software Industry

Unified Monitoring Market Analysis

The Unified Monitoring Market is expected to register a CAGR of 19.56% during the forecast period.

• Growing demand for Digital Age Networking that enables enterprises to move toward digital transformation and generate new business outcomes by leveraging new digital age technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), cloud, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) is expected to drive the market.
• According to the report, 70% of companies either have a digital transformation strategy or are working on it, and 21% of companies perceive that they have already completed the digital transformation. Around 40% of all technology spending in 2021 is expected to go toward digital transformation.
• Moreover, increasing emphasis on customer experience by the enterprise to grow the business is also compelling the market. The unified monitoring tools help companies to deliver an optimal customer experience by monitoring the availability and performance of all their services, applications, and technologies. It was also found that companies that earn USD 1 billion annually can expect to earn, on average, an additional USD 700 million within three years of investing in customer experience. Additionally, companies using SaaS apps, in particular, can expect to increase revenue by USD 1 billion.
• With the spread of COVID-19 across the globe, industries and their IT infrastructure has been tested for new challenges. The new work-from-home norm has exposed the end-user to new challenges where a single solution is not the efficient solution and has resulted in a silo-based approach for monitoring being no longer sufficient to use, in which each technology tier was monitored independently by a different tool. The market is expected to experience new capabilities being integrated into existing solutions to address emerging needs. They indicate the preparedness of vendors to meet evolving needs.
• Furthermore, during the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, most consumers relied on digital banking, and cyberattacks targeting the financial services sector increased dramatically. According to the VMware Carbon Black Threat Analysis Unit, cyberattacks rose by 38% between February and March 2020. Attackers use COVID-19 to launch phishing attacks, trojans, backdoors, crypto miners, botnets, and ransomware. As a result, increased vigilance and visibility into enterprise-wide endpoint activity are more important than ever. Financial institutions are investing heavily to update their networking solutions, which will drive the market.

Unified Monitoring Market Trends

BFSI Sector Will Experience Significant Growth and Drive the Market

• The banking, financial services, and insurance companies (BFSI) demand an IT infrastructure that is available 24X7x365 days and meets rigorous internal and external service level requirements. As the segment majorly deals with end customers, who contribute to companies' revenue, an enterprise needs to ensure that the end-user applications and business services are monitored with a robust IT infrastructure management tool that supports business-critical availability and performance, thus posing a huge dependency on unified monitoring tools.
• Additionally, the BFSI sector faces major cyberattacks. According to the report, financial firms are 300 times more likely than other institutions to experience cyberattacks and thus require a hypervigilant security system and continuous monitoring. In 2021, Mastercard reported over 38,000 intrusion attempts each day, which increased by 60% compared to the previous year.
• Further, during the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic, most users rely on digital banking, and there has been a sudden increase in cyberattacks targeting the financial services sector. According to the VMware Carbon Black Threat Analysis Unit, cyberattacks spiked by 47% between 2021-2022. Attackers are using phishing attacks, trojans, backdoors, crypto miners, botnets, and ransomware, so increased vigilance and visibility into enterprise-wide endpoint activity are more paramount than ever; financial institutions are investing heavily to update their networking solutions which are expected to drive the market.
• Moreover, these organizations are geographically distributed and deal with different technologies, from legacy systems to hybrid cloud-based solutions. Hence, there is tremendous pressure on such financial organizations to monitor all the components with real-time data, simultaneously maintaining security.
• In significant companies, automated remediation of non-compliant endpoints could include patching the system, enabling an antivirus tool and making sure it is up to date on patterns, emailing IT about unauthorized access, and much more solutions to meet consumer demand and reinforcing their position. In August 2022, Syxsense, a global leader in Unified Security and Endpoint Management solutions, today announced Syxsense Zero Trust, a new module within Syxsense Enterprise that enables endpoint compliance with Zero Trust Network Access policies (ZTNA). Zero Trust initiatives require a hyper-focus on endpoint protection, but traditional authentication solutions lack the ability to evaluate device health, ensure granular policy compliance, and automate risk remediation.

North America is Expected to Experience Significant Growth

• North America is expected to dominate the market throughout the forecast period due to rapid technological advancements and its penetration in various sectors such as education, healthcare, telecom, etc., development of data centers to meet the growing demand for servers and storage space, increasing cost of resources and rising investment in smart cities projects which are expected to drive the growth in North America.
• Most of enterprises with IT landscapes are featuring numerous software layers from multiple vendors, and thus there are rising support expectations from the users' side which is fueling the dependency on unified monitoring capabilities for automatically discovering all of the active software resources in the environment including end-user client applications, and application servers with business logic.
