Abstract

This IDC study identifies and quantifies the SMB managed Wi-Fi services market opportunity in the United States, including an assessment of the drivers and inhibitors influencing the deployment, marketing, and pricing of these services and the adoption of managed Wi-Fi services across the small and medium-sized business segments. The study also presents forecast projections for the revenue opportunity for managed Wi-Fi services.

"Managed Wi-Fi services will play an important role for small and medium-sized businesses who need to connect employees with communications and collaboration services within the workplace. MSOs and telcos have an opportunity to provide these Wi-Fi services as an additional element in the bundle, helping their customers deliver a better experience to employees, as well as shoppers, hotel guests, and attendees at large-scale events," says Jason Blackwell, research director, SMB Communications Services at IDC.
