(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/5aab37/asia_pacific_enter)
has announced the addition of Frost & Sullivan's new report "Asia
Pacific Enterprise Telephony Markets 2007" to their offering.
This Frost & Sullivan research service titled Asia Pacific
Enterprise Telephony Markets 2007 provides an insight into enterprise
telephony, market engineering, revenue forecasts, competitive
landscape, and profiles of leading market participants in the Asia
Pacific region. In this research, Frost & Sullivan's expert analysts
thoroughly examine the following markets: KTS, PBX, WPBX, and IP PBX.
Market Overview
High demand from developed nations such as Japan, Australia, New
Zealand, and Singapore has triggered a growth spurt in the enterprise
telephony market in the Asia Pacific region. Although time division
multiplexing (TDM) still holds sway in the developing economies,
Internet protocol (IP) telephony is making considerable headway and
penetrating a range of key verticals and horizontals. The high
installation cost of wireless private branch exchange (WPBX) has
restricted its uptake in these regions but the key telephony system
(KTS) market has remained stable, witnessing only a slight decline.
Japan has ensconced itself in a dominant position in the market,
accounting for the lion's share of the market revenue. This was
achieved by its pioneering efforts toward the adoption of both TDM and
IP telephony solutions and the highly conducive domestic business
environment. Australia closely follows with a major portion of the
accrued revenues coming from IP telephony sales. In this region,
intensive marketing efforts, faster acceptance of evolving
technologies, and geographical challenges galvanized attempts to seek
newer ways to remain competitive.
"Intensifying market conditions, geographical challenges, and
communication cost have become some of the major drivers of IP
telephony deployment within Asia Pacific," notes the analyst of this
study. "Both small and medium businesses (SMB) and large businesses
(LB) across verticals are resorting to the deployment of IP telephony
to reduce communication cost and increase their workforce production."
This has thrown open new avenues for IP telephony vendors who are
actively spreading product awareness in the market to drive the
migration of legacy system to IP-enabled or Pure IP solution.
Rapid IP Telephony Adoption Creating Limitless Potential across
Various Verticals
The successful adoption of IP in the Asia Pacific region can be
attributed to the multifarious benefits it offers. "Businesses have
now started to view the technology not only in terms of cost saving in
communication, but also from the standpoint of the strategic value it
delivers to their operations," observes the analyst. "IP telephony is
not confined within the realm of communication alone but offers scope
for integration with other software applications and hardware to
achieve productive outcomes." The largest deployments are in the
banking and finance sectors, where advantages such as multi-level
client interaction and good return on investment can be leveraged.
Accounting firms and insurance companies across the region have also
benefited by the integration of IP telephony into business operations.
The healthcare sector in Australia has seen solid adoption of the
solution and new network infrastructure applications have been
designed for the close monitoring of patients.
The offering of managed services has helped push penetration
levels. As hardware technology used in IP systems begins to mature, it
enables low-cost proprietary system elements and enhances
manufacturing processes. Thanks to recent innovations, companies are
now offering higher processing power on lower priced chips.
Technologies such as peer-to-peer telephony and other solutions are
tailor-made for the underserved SMB segments. High productivity gains,
coupled with increased end-user convenience due to unified messaging
solutions and presence offered by IP telephony systems, can accelerate
the migration to IP.
