Our take
Self-dubbed as Silicon Valley’s phone company for phone numbers and messaging, Bandwidth is a leading company that offers communications platforms as a service. The company was founded in 1999 and has managed to grow with the rise of Internet and mobile communications.
Bandwidth’s services are crucial to the operations of many communications enterprises. It provides APIs and solutions platforms to enable voice and mobile communications across big names like Google, Zoom, and Microsoft. Its services are endless and are built on robust technology that offers its customers the ability to customise. This has set it ahead of both traditional telecommunications companies and new-age API providers. With its impressive customer base, the company's cash flow continues to impress inside and outside investors.
Bandwidth has continued to strategically expand over the years with acquisitions across Europe and North America, making the company a global workforce. Despite this, Bandwidth still has its eyes set on further market disruptions in areas like enterprise communications, 5G, and Web real-time communications. And the company is poised to keep up its success as long as mobile communications are standing strong.
