For instance, NetScout acquired Accanto Systems to expand its nGenius Service Assurance Solution to support next-generation network voice services. Additionally, Cisco Systems acquired Cariden Technologies. These acquisitions help the vendors provide advanced network software and applications to the end-users. This will encourage end-users to adopt and implement network applications and software, and hence this will help the market grow.''

According to the report, the increased need for the exchange of data and information across organizations is increasing the need for efficient networks. This network efficiency leads to increased access, and hence an increase in network traffic. It is difficult for organizations to manage this increase in network traffic. Network applications and software help in managing networks more efficiently and allow network administrators to monitor the data flow and traffic through a network. Thus, the increase in network traffic is propelling the growth of the Global Network Applications and Software market.
