Windows to remain the most preferred operating system for enterprise email applications

Over the years, email applications have moved through various operating systems. From mainframe, Unix, and Linux, enterprise systems across the globe have adopted Microsoft’s Windows operating environment seamlessly. Having said that, the other operating environments continue to support certain business applications including email applications. These other operating systems hold a meagre share of the global email application market in terms of adoptability and revenue growth.

The Windows operating environment is estimated to grow from an estimated market valuation of US$ 677.3 Mn in 2017 to US$ 1076.9 Mn by the end of the forecast period (2025).
