SMEs in Australia: A Mobility Perspective
Ovum, March 2009, Pages: 14
Introduction
SMEs in Australia see investment in communications as essential to support their business. They will continue to invest in telecoms but are keen to move to more opex-based models and seek greater efficiencies in mobilising staff.
Highlights
One common theme among telcos is clear - they are all looking to provide an efficient next-generation network on which they can offer high-quality value-added services (VASs) to their customers. Telecoms operators are faced with a string of challenges from defending their core fixed revenues to generating growth from new wave services and international operations.
