Wireless enterprise spend will triple by 2008, says latest visiongain report
San Francisco, CA and London, UK; -/December 17, 2005 - Wi-Fi Technology News/- Worldwide wireless enterprise spending is set to rise from $50 billion in 2005, as operators, handset manufacturers, enterprises and other companies begin to adopt more coherent strategies. That is the finding from a new study, "Wireless Enterprise 2005-2010: Successfully generating revenue in the enterprise market", published by industry research company, visiongain.
The study also found that enterprises of varying size and location are embracing wireless services in multiple ways and spending is set to increase to more than $130 billion in 2008 for enterprise wireless hardware, software and services.
"While some of the issues that have prevented widespread deployment of data services have been resolved, most enterprises remain organised around separate IT and telecoms functions," comments report author Nancee Ruzicka. "This corporate lack of organisational and operational convergence makes enterprise wireless implementations risky, expensive, and less likely to succeed," she adds.
The enterprise market remains one of huge untapped revenue potential for mobile operators as they struggle with saturated penetration rates and slow consumer uptake of mobile data services. As wireless service providers look beyond consumer and voice services towards more lucrative enterprise and extended data services, however, there are infrastructure, application, security, and operational issues that must also be addressed. In addition, standards are still emerging, continuous mobile connectivity remains a mystery, and enterprises require greater capability, reliability and availability to truly embrace mobility.
Based on extensive primary research, including a detailed survey of the enterprise sector, this report analyses the current and future state of the wireless enterprise market, outlining the key issues, challenges and opportunities that exist in this segment, as well as forecasts up to 2010.
