Abstract
This IDC study, specifically IDC Asia/Pacific Telecommunications and WAN Usage Study, 2007 looks at the requirements of enterprise telecommunications managers in the Asia/Pacific (excluding Japan) or APEJ region. This study analyzes usage preference and adoption behavior of these enterprises across a range of industries. Some of the primary issues covered include current and future adoption behavior, technology, and SP selection criteria.
"A majority of enterprises are now more concerned with price. Our respondents cited cost as the key factor in selecting a telecommunications SP and the services that they subscribe to. This trend is the result of diminishing differentiation factor on connectivity services as most SPs provide similar services," says Kenneth Liew, senior market analyst, Communications Research, IDC Asia/' Pacific.
