A set of protocols and enhanced messaging standards called rich communication services (RCS) are intended to improve the usefulness of the messaging software that comes pre-installed in mobile devices. RCS is anticipated to entirely replace SMS and MMS communications thanks to its sophisticated capabilities including group chats, media sharing, video calling, and location sharing. As a result, it is projected that a key element driving market growth over the projection period will be the growing adoption of mobile service subscribers.
A2P and P2P messaging domains now provide a higher level of interactivity thanks to RCS. When engaging with customers, it helps businesses to visually mark their messaging, preserving their corporate branding and identity. RCS marketing would allow firms to send messages that keep the look and feel of their applications, websites, and other digital offerings by enabling brands to give some level of personalization, such as the ability to utilize unique colors, logos, and company brand names as sender IDs. Companies have benefited from end users' attention and increased involvement thanks to the RCS platform. RCS will likely change digital marketing and advertising tactics. Traditional SMS is no longer the primary medium of communication for brands and organizations. These firms require more interactive methods of client communication. RCS is playing a bigger and bigger part in marketing and advertising campaigns to deliver more genuine and individualized engagement chances with the fast expanding hyper-connected customer base.
RCS is gaining popularity as a replacement for the current SMS protocol because it makes it possible to produce messages that are interesting, immersive, and engaging. Despite its advantages, RCS cannot provide end-to-end communication encryption, making it challenging to persuade customers to utilize it.Since RCS providers can see what customers are saying, sensitive information cannot be transferred using RCS. RCS is therefore not considered to be an end-to-end encrypted messaging channel, which puts it at a disadvantage when compared to rival chat applications like iMessage, WhatsApp, and Signal that have robust message encryption features.
The large enterprises segment dominated the market for rich communication services globally in 2019, and it is anticipated that this trend will continue throughout the forecast period as the implementation of rich communication services is further assisting large enterprises' IT & telecommunication teams in changing the way of communicating with messaging that can deliver rich content. The traditional method of messaging does not work effectively in large corporations or college settings since the messaging and communicating needs are changing. As a result, the adoption of rich communication services is expanding quickly among large businesses, offering a flexible and dynamic approach.
Manufacturers of mobile devices, telecom providers, and independent application developers have all contributed equally to the market for rich communication services. Because of the backing of all the concerned parties, interoperability is a key factor in the adoption of rich communication services. The GSM Association (GSMA) has published the universal profile definition to help all operators across the world adopt rich communication services. By enabling operator service interoperability, the installation of universal profile helps to provide a consistent messaging experience. Rich communication services would therefore have comparable fundamental features when implemented on any mobile phone across any operator network, resulting in uniformity and an improved user experience.
A developing trend is the combination of RCS platforms and AI technologies like chatbots and virtual assistants. Businesses may automate client interactions, offer quick assistance, and provide individualized recommendations with the help of chatbots powered by AI. The total client experience is improved by this integration, which also increases operational effectiveness. RCS communications is increasingly including rich media content like films, photos, and interactive components. A more interesting and immersive communication experience is made possible by the capacity to transmit and receive rich media communications in real-time. Businesses now have more options to promote their goods and services through aesthetically appealing material thanks to this trend.
The COVID-19 epidemic has significantly altered how individuals live their daily lives, go about their jobs, and interact with their surroundings. Pre-COVID-19 estimations are expected to be much lower than the present forecast for 2027. By the end of 2020, the market is anticipated to stabilize; however, in the years to follow, it is anticipated to expand significantly at a higher CAGR due to working from home (WFH), social isolation, and company digital transformation. These elements have emerged as crucial elements in the development of company messaging as the optimum medium for customer communication. However, the demand for RCS solutions drastically reduced during lockdown, showing that businesses had little to no interest in using these channels at that time. Additionally, in a post-lockdown scenario, SMS messaging is predicted to become less popular as consumers want richer communications options, with RCS finally being the dominant channel due to its size.
