MUMBAI, India and SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Gupshup.io, the leading Conversation Cloud Platform announced that it has been positioned as an Established Leader in Juniper Research’s OTT Business Messaging Competitor Leaderboard. The Competitor Leaderboard assesses 20 global OTT Business Messaging vendors, scoring them on market presence, size of operations, the extent of market partnerships, the sophistication of their Business Messaging Services and Juniper research’s view on each company’s innovation and future business prospects.
In recognizing Gupshup.io as an Established Leader, the report took note of its strength in customer deployments, experience, variety of product offerings, value added services and innovation.
“With high usage and engagement rates, OTT messaging apps are a great way for enterprises looking to enhance customer experience and turn communications into conversations.

A large number of brands on our platform have reaped the benefits of Conversational advertising, marketing, commerce and support, growing their revenues while driving operational efficiency. This recognition by Juniper reaffirms our deep understanding and commitment to the space”, said Gaurav Kachhawa, Chief Product Officer at Gupshup.
Gupshup has all the major OTT channels among its umbrella of rich messaging channels. Out of these, WhatsApp, Instagram and Google GBM have witnessed the maximum traction, given WhatsApp’s large 2 billion user base globally. Additionally, Google RCS Business Messaging which has over 1 billion users at a global level is a hit amongst B2C brands, given its high read rates (40%) and response rates (6-11%)
