Details

AudioCodes (NASDAQ: AUDC), a leading vendor of advanced communications software, products and productivity solutions for the digital workplace, today announced that it has been ranked as the top vendor for enterprise session border controller (SBC) revenue for 4Q20 by market research firm, Omdia. In its Enterprise SBCs and VoIP Gateways Market Tracker – 4Q20 Analysis report, Omdia reported that AudioCodes had attained the highest worldwide revenue share with 21.4% for the quarter. Overall, for the calendar year 2020 Omdia ranked AudioCodes in second place with 17.9% revenue share.

2020 saw AudioCodes experience unprecedented success in many areas of its business, especially session border controllers. It increased its overall SBC customer base by over 30% in 2020 compared with 2019 and more than doubled the number of SBC deals over $400,000. The growth in SBC sales was largely attributable to the rapid growth in demand for Microsoft Teams Direct Routing support and organizations' need to support remote and work-from-home employees, including contact center agents, in the wake of the Covid-19 crisis.

Ideal for deployment in use cases such as bring-your-own-carrier (BYOC), work-from-home and cloud real-time communications, AudioCodes' Mediant SBCs are available as virtualized and cloud-native platforms (suitable for deployment in public and private clouds), as well as appliances for customers looking for fully integrated network elements.
