It was initially the research community's rule of thumb that large
enterprise would elect to keep control over their networks when it came
to implementing VoIP but it turns out that might not be the case.
According to a research report just released by In-Stat, "Global
Enterprises" are getting set to adoption a Managed Services approach to
telephony.
The report, entitled "Global Managed Services Trends" In-Stat says
Managed Network Services adoption will increase over the next two
years. Surveying IT and network managers of large, globally-focused
businesses with more than 1,000 employees, the research uncovered a
trend toward toward out-tasking because of the increased network
complexity involved in convergence.
"In two years, nearly 40% of survey respondents in the areas of
PBX/Phone System Management and Telecom Expense Management indicate
that these functions will be out-tasked," says Jeff Jernigan, In-Stat
analyst.
"Within two years, MNS adoption rates will roughly double for security,
storage and hosting, with nearly one-third of respondents indicating
these functions will be out-tasked."
