Assessing the Impact of Fixed-Mobile Convergence on the SMB SectorProduct Type: Market Research ReportPublished by: IDC Published: January 2007 Product Code: R104-35670 Description
This study defines and analyzes the emergence of fixed-mobile convergence (FMC) services in the Western European market and their current and future impact on the SMB sector. It focuses on what FMC is, why it is attractive to providers and SMB customers, what services are already available, and the current and future plans of SMBs with regard to FMC service adoption. "The real benefits of FMC need to become apparent to the SMB community in Europe before we see significant takeup of services," said Eric Owen, VP EMEA Telecoms Research. "Most small companies don't really understand what true FMC is at this point in time." Table of Contents
