While Workplace-as-a-Service (WaaS) models were already gaining traction before the pandemic, the rise of cloud-based workplaces during the pandemic have further fueled their growth. The pandemic has necessitated the move toward cloud-based workspaces delivered in as-a-service models, as businesses adjust to the next normal of limited CAPEX investment and sustained Work From Home (WFH).

But the pandemic has made WaaS models a business necessity to operate and compete in the next normal.
