The study found that 23 percent of those types of companies are already using VoIP.
What's even more interesting than those numbers is Info-Tech analyst George Goodall's assertion that rather than be an exclusive fertile ground for entrenched VoIP solution providers such as Nortel and Avaya, this ramp-up will serve as an incubator for nimble companies specializing in specialty VoIP management solutions.
"These products aren't just scaled down version(s) of large-enterprise systems," EE Times quotes Goodall as saying. "Potentially, they're category killers."
