European SMB Market Becomes the Next Battleground for the Unified Communications Vendors, Says Frost & Sullivan

Frost & Sullivan's Analyst Briefing on Unified Communications in SMB sector on Thursday, 1 July 2010, at 15.00 BST

LONDON, June 22, 2010 - The small and medium businesses (SMB) sector, looking up to big
enterprises, is eager to benefit from advanced communication features and
therefore presents a great market opportunity for unified communications (UC)
vendors and service providers. The communications capabilities that were once
reserved for larger enterprises have now permeated the world of small to
medium businesses. Typically lacking the IT and financial resources that
larger enterprises enjoy, small businesses require solutions that are
inexpensive, as well as easy to deploy and manage.

These market trends will be discussed during Frost & Sullivan's next
Analyst Briefing on Unified Communications adoption in the SMB sector on
Thursday, 1 July 2010, at 15.00 BST.

Dorota Oviedo, Industry Analyst for Unified Communications and
Collaboration group, will analyse trends in premises-based and hosted unified
communications targeted at the SMB sector, key challenges in the European SMB
sector, and also present vendor strategies for success.

"After decades of being rather neglected by the enterprise communications
vendors, the small and medium business (SMB) sector has recently become the
target for a wave of products catered to its needs," comments Ms Oviedo.
"From small start-up to large organisation, just about every company can
benefit from productivity gains that unified communications solutions can
provide."

The briefing will benefit unified communications and collaboration
vendors, distributors, VARs, SIs, service providers and other market
participants.
