Supply chains mostly stabilized in 2024–2025, yet a single supplier disruption can cut Sangoma’s output by an estimated 20–30% for 2–6 months.

raises Sangoma’s migration risk and vendor lock-in.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003cp\u003eAs a result, Sangoma must generally accept hyperscalers’ pricing, SLAs, and data egress fees, squeezing margins—cloud
