What Are The VoIP Trends in 2009
|
Robert Poe has another of his well thought out "lists" over at VoIP-News where he identifies some of the trends in VoIP for the new year. I think there will be a few more trends. 1) Consolidation of companies-instead of features being companies, smart money will "roll up" the VoIP features and put them into one business and offer them as service. 2) Voice SaaS-more and more of the VoIP plays will become Software as a Service, with a greater emphasis of real time communication built into web sites. Think about companies like Jaduka and ifByPhone. 3) More micropayments for...

Scouting Report: The Players to Pick To Build & Grow A 2.0 Telco/Carrier/Service Provider
|
If you're a company like AT&T or BT, Telstra or DT you start to look around and say, "in times like these...... what can we do to be better tomorrow." That means you look inside, assess who's on First, and What's on Second, then look outside and say, who should I hire to make my company better and stronger and ready for 2.0. Given my history in pro sports, and having actually run a draft in my early days and staged some draft day events, I figured it would be fun to look at the players and figure out what's...

Now Colleges and More Businesses Are Cutting The Cord-Where's the Mobile PBX?
|
A few days ago, USA Today ran a story that describes how more and more universities, and companies, as well as local governments are cutting the cord, ditching the land line and going mobile. The trend is nothing unexpected, as cellular calling rates, bundle plans, rollover minutes and newer handsets every few years outweigh outmoded the PBX and desk phone approach of the landline. With more and more telework also occurring, this also means the so called "off premise extension" has been eliminated, as well as the FXO (foreign exchange) two big money makers for the landline telco that with...

Quest Cuts Services in New Mexico, Then Is Ordered To Restore The Service
|
This video news report tells a very tragic story of how shortsighted companies have gotten in an era of staying connected. While Quest and SkyWi may have a dispute over money, the customers of SkyWi likely paid their bills. To leave them stranded, without an option was shortsighted, and the New Mexico regulators had to step in. Thankfully.

Mediocre At Its Finest
|
Om call 2008 the year of Mediocrity. Ted points to for whom the Bell tolls. Let's start with the source of money closest to the hearts of the start ups. The VCs. Over the past 60 days I'm hearing the following "the VC's don't really have the money in the funds they represent. They have to go to the LP's (Limited Partners) to do a cash call. Some are having problems getting the money from their LPs so the deals aren't closing." Translation-Dear Mr. Startup CEO. Yes we agreed and gave you a term sheet but we don't have the...

Putting VoIP In It's Place
|
Many of the pundits are all basically saying the same thing about VoIP. Some are calling it dead. Others are saying it's changing. I'm saying that things like VoIP, SIP, etc. are terms for what has become the foundation level building blocks for the 21st century communication. Some call the notion of a discussion a rehash of things we've all be saying. I say, we're entering the era where communications as we know it begins to change and is also a needed change. We're wel beyond the era of POTS based mentality. For example, how many people use phone company...

Another Accolade for Fonolo
|
For a company still at the angel round, Fonolo continues to garner the kind of attention that consumer brands crave to be awarded. This time it was from trendspotting Springwise, an 8,000+ person early "things to watch, things to know about" organization.

iPod Touch Sales Drives App Store Downloads
|
With applications like Palringo, Truphone, Nimbuzz, Fring all available in the iPhone/iPod App Store seeing that the sales of iPod Touch devices being so strong, makes my heart a flutter. I too bought two of these in the last few weeks, one for myself and one as a gift for my wife. I see the 2nd Generation iPod Touch as being the sleeper product of the year. It's capabilities rival the iphone, and since you can use almost all the apps (minus the GPS other than Palringo which works with WiFi locations too) the market for iPhone app sales just...

Korea Sets Voice over WiBro Standard, KT To Deploy VoMax
|
Over in Korea where WiMax has been up and running under the WiBro monicker, we read that a standard for voice services has been set up, and that KT (Korea Telecom) is gearing up to deploy it. This news is excellent news for the Voice Service provider industry as it gives them a standard to follow and to work with. It also shows just how quickly WiMax is moving compared to WiFi which only this year has adopted and ratified a real VoIP protocol, something that slowed down the adoption of muni-WiFi. By having a standard, and a giant in...

Cisco Gearing Up for 2009
|
You can tell a lot by the way a company behaves in the media. Cisco, is one of those companies which knows how to sing a tune. It's no coincidence that Cisco has two very interesting stories appear in different parts of the media today. It was planned. What's more if you look closely at both stories you can see that the story angles are not that different. That's called positioning, and when you read the words you see that the Cisco message for 2009 is really more about pulling more of their switches through the service providers by getting...
