In a release, Research and Markets noted that report highlights include:

This Frost & Sullivan research service titled Asia Pacific Managed and Hosted Communications Services Market - 2007 provides insights on the market trends, forecasts, competitive landscape and demand analysis, as well as strategic recommendations to the telecom operators. In this research, Frost & Sullivan's analysts thoroughly examine the following markets: managed and hosted communications services that include managed and hosted telephony, messaging, and conferencing.

The burgeoning penetration and availability of Internet protocol (IP) telephony, corporate e-mail, calendaring systems, multimedia conferencing, and mobility solutions have transformed the enterprise communications landscape in the last few years. Enterprises are seeking communications to support their growing businesses in the Asia Pacific region. On one hand, the growing variety of communications channels is facilitating better collaboration, and on the other hand, there are potential challenges in the management of the entire complex communications infrastructure and rise in bandwidth requirements. Several global as well as regional telecom operators have gradually built a portfolio of enterprise communications services, beyond simple telephony and are migrating to IP multimedia applications.

In the near future, growth is likely to be driven by enterprise communications requirements from organizations with multiple office locations and a significant number of mobile workers. Eventually, with the advent of UC, enterprises are expected to have a much more potentially complex communications infrastructure. Most companies would require expertise from service providers to help them plan, implement, and manage the infrastructure to ensure real-time UC. Telecom service providers have traditionally focused on providing carriage services with limited traction in the provision of additional IP applications and managed services for their enterprise customers. Although some of the regional and global telecom service providers have attempted to offer communications services, such as managed telephony, hosted e-mail, and enterprise mobility applications, most have experienced limited success due to an incomprehensive portfolio and strategy to target the market.
