US Professional Services Market: Managed Services Adoption Trends and Spending

In-Stat/MDR, September 2007, Pages: 28

We predict steadily increasing managed services spending growth in the professional services market with a 10% CAGR through 2011-slightly higher than average managed services spending percentage growth in the overall US market.
This report covers managed services adoption trends in the US professional services market. There are three main sections of this report.

The first section focuses on demand for managed services, including managed services adoption trends for multiple business network functions. Also covered is demand for fully-managed IP telephony and fully-managed desktop solutions.

The second section focuses on adoption of utility computing, or "on-demand" services in the professional services market. Covered is demand for on-demand network/bandwidth capacity, computer storage capacity, and server/CPU capacity.

The third section focuses on managed services spending. Survey data tables that detail current and future demand for all surveyed business network functions are broken down comparing the professional services market to the total US business market.

The report is based upon primary research obtained in a recent survey that included 220 US professional services market business network decision makers.
