Australian SMB VoIP market will touch 6 million by 2011
According to a report titled "The Australian VoIP Services Market" from research and consulting firm Market Clarity, the combined consumer and SMB VoIP market in the country will touch the 6 million mark by 2011. There is a catch. Market Clarity says that free services will make up the bulk of VoIP connections. Only 2.8 million connections out of the projected 6 million will be paid-for VoIP offerings.
Moreover, in dollar terms, by 2011, VoIP market in Australia will amount to $680 million out of a telecommunications market already worth more than $30 billion.
So, where do you see the money coming from? Market Clarity says that the IP Centrex market holds promise. It will grow from its current numbers of just $59.49 million to about 520,000 business handsets and revenues of more than $993 million a year by 2011.
