Autonomous Agents Market by Deployment Type (Cloud and On-premises), Organization Size (SMEs and Large Enterprises), Vertical (BFSI, IT and Telecom, Manufacturing, Healthcare, Transportation and Mobility), and Region - Global Forecast to 2024
[95 Pages Report] The global Autonomous Agents Market size was valued at $345 million in 2019 and is projected to reach $2,992 million by 2024, at a CAGR of 54% during the forecast period. Increased automation and agility, need for delivering enhanced customer experience, and increased cost savings and return on investment are some of the major growth factors for the autonomous agents industry.
By deployment type, the on-premises segment is expected to be a larger contributor to the autonomous agents market growth during the forecast period
On-premises deployment of autonomous agents solutions requires initial high investment by organizations, though it does not require incremental costs throughout the ownership, as in the case of cloud deployment type. Moreover, security concern associated with private data of customers is a major reason for the adoption of on-premises deployment over the cloud. These types of deployments are popular across large-sized enterprises.
IT and telecom vertical accounts for the largest size in Autonomous Agents Market during the forecast period
The IT and telecom industry is characterized with increased complexity of communication networks to support advanced technologies, such as software defined - wide area network, and network function virtualization. The vertical has an increased demand for intelligent and optimized network operations to cater to the demand of communication service providers. The vertical is integrating autonomous agents, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning to automate their network operations and enhance the consumer experience. Autonomous agents are able to optimize the network operations and enable autonomous network operations. However, though the majority of AI in these applications are restricted to statistical analysis and big data tools, autonomous agents are expected to have high demand over the forecast period.
Asia Pacific to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The companies operating in the APAC region would benefit from the flexible economic conditions, industrialization and globalization policies of the governments, and the expanding digitalization, which is expected to have a huge impact on the business community in the region. The other emerging economies, such as India, Singapore, and Malaysia are looking forward to integrating new technologies into their businesses. These developments show that the APAC region is well-versed in adopting autonomous agents across various verticals, with a major focus on BFSI, and IT and telecom verticals. The companies in this region practicing strategy of increasing its customer base through acquisitions and partnerships with the significant players in the autonomous agents market.
