Owing to such risks, some businesses might decide not to use application management services. This is especially true for SMEs, which might not have the funds to withstand revenue losses. In the end, each business must evaluate the potential advantages and disadvantages of using application management services to decide if it is the best option given their unique requirements and situation. As a result, the longer implementation process may negatively affect the opportunity for application management service providers to generate revenue and restrain the market's expansion during the forecast period.
