A large percentage of IT budget managers do not delineate many recent technologies and IT trends in their budgets, making it more difficult for vendors and providers to sell newer services such as IP convergence and VoIP, reports In-Stat. Despite the complexity and the rate of change business is undergoing, budget managers have yet to make wholesale corresponding changes to how they budget for and categorize network products and services, the high-tech market research firm says.
“Despite the buzz around convergence and its growing importance to companies, this absence of budgeting precision creates a challenge for vendors and service providers selling into a company that coordinates through a budgeting decision-maker,” says Jeff Jernigan, In-Stat analyst.
Recent research by In-Stat found the following:
* Across all sizes of business, implementing IP convergence/VoIP is among the highest telecom priorities in 2007.
* The drive in demand for IP solutions will drive the need for managed and hosted services - especially in small and mid-sized businesses.
* The drive in demand for IP solutions will also drive the need for VoIP security solutions across all sizes of business.
