The analysts forecast the Global Managed Print Services (MPS) market to grow at a CAGR of 10.75 percent over the period 2012-2016. One of the key factors contributing to this market growth is the need for significant cost reduction. The Global Managed Print Services (MPS) market has also been witnessing the increase in demand for cloud service offerings. However, the lack of transparency of service level agreements could pose a challenge to the growth of this market.

The report, Global Managed Print Services (MPS) market Report, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the Americas, and the EMEA and APAC regions; it also covers the Global Managed Print Services (MPS) market landscape and its growth prospects in the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.

Currently, the acceptance of the cloud-based MPS model is increasing at a tremendous pace and is expected to continue during the forecast period. There appears to be a decent market for managed cloud services for printing in SMEs in the near future. Given the advantages of cloud services, many end-users prefer cloud-based solutions.

Further, with advantages such as reduced costs and ease of installation and operations, SMEs identify cloud services as more useful than other traditional-based service offerings. Thus, with the increasing demand and popularity of cloud-based offerings, many vendors in the MPS market are offering cloud-based services.

According to the report, one of the main drivers is the significant reduction in cost. Currently, there is an increasing demand for automated business processes that permit flexibility in response to changing business conditions.

Certain peripheral and core factors, such as changing demands and market environment, have put incredible pressure on the infrastructure resources of many organizations. Hence, it is important for these organizations to keep adopting newer technologies. To respond to this constantly changing technological environment, several firms are increasingly adopting MPS and solutions.

Further, the report states that one of the key challenges in the market is the lack of transparency of SLAs. SLAs are extremely important to customers as well as managed service providers. Customers are often clueless about the type of services to include in the SLA. At the same time, MSP providers are often not consistent and fail to comply with the agreements made in the SLAs.
