VoIP: Spending and Trends
eMarketer, June 2005, Pages: 23
With leading telecom carriers and cable companies unveiling major VoIP initiatives, American consumers and businesses will be hearing a great deal more about VoIP during the coming months. As a result, VoIP subscriber growth will accelerate in 2005, but 2006 will be the year when IP telephony truly enters the mainstream.
Be ready to take advantage of all the opportunities this new market offers, read VoIP: Spending and Trends today.
Attention: Telecom Carriers, Cable Companies, Large and Small Businesses, Advertisers and Marketers and Financial Analysts and Investors.
VoIP: Spending and Trends, a new report from eMarketer, examines the rapidly developing IP telephony market and the impact its growth will have on businesses, consumers and the entire communications industry.
According to the most current data from the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC), at the end of 2003 there were 181.4 million wireline telephone access lines in use by businesses and consumers across the country. Not far behind them, the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) counted 173.7 million wireless subscribers in the United States as of the end of 2004.
Alongside these two markets, the number of US VoIP subscribers is small, with industry observers' comparative estimates predicting that there will be between 2.8 million and 6.7 million residential VoIP lines in use by the end of 2005. In five years' time, even the most optimistic forecast predicts just 27.0 million residential VoIP subscribers, accounting for 19.6% of the 137.4 million US consumer and small business wireline subscribers at the end of 2003.
Despite the long road ahead, consumer and business migration to VoIP is on the verge of moving out of the early adoption phase and into the mainstream, and the next two years will mark the turning point when widespread VoIP use finally takes off.
Key questions the 'VoIP' report addresses:
- How many US consumers are using VoIP today?
- How many will begin using it over the next five years?
- What kind of VoIP service providers are consumers most likely to choose?
- How many US companies are using VoIP today?
- How many plan to begin adopting it over the next two years?
- How much do businesses expect to spend on VoIP equipment over the next several years?
- What are the greatest barriers to business and consumer adoption of VoIP services?
- How will Vonage, Skype and wildcard providers affect the market?
- And many more…
VoIP: Spending and Trends aggregates the latest data from leading market researchers—Forrester, Gartner, Halpern Capital, Harris Interactive, IDC, Infonetics Research, Ipsos-Insight, Merrill Lynch, TIA and many others—with eMarketer's objective, unbiased analysis to give you the information you need to make intelligent, ahead-of-the-curve business decisions.
