Hosted Voice: State of the Market

Large players are deployed–E.g., Verizon, MCI, BellSouth, SBC, Telstra, Singtel, T-Systems

CLECs expand–E.g., US LEC, McLeod, XO, CBeyond, BroadWing 100+ others

Residential distracts enterprise deployments (temporarily)

–The Vonage effect

Hosted voice follows IP PBX deployment path

–Trials, branch offices, HQ

Big names deploying–E.g., US EPA, State of Minn., U Kentucky, GMAC, Coca Cola, Texas A&M

Hosted PBX Follows Software Trends

30 years of PBX domination– Centrex fought back with

limited success– IP PBX same evolutionary

model

IP Telephony changing market– From hardware to software

Enterprise software apps migrating to data center– E.g., CRM, ERP, Web hosting,

directory services, email, etc.

Is voice just another data center

application?

Attribute Hosted PBX IP PBX

Scale • Millions of users • 1-10K users• Lower numbers of IP phones

Networking • Centralized mgmt. and MACs• Uniform dialing plans• Uniform service set

• Hard-to-manage dialing plans• Service islands

Total Cost of Ownership

• Lower cost with outsource • Higher when total costs factored in

Openness & standards

• SIP-based• Open CPE

• Proprietary• Closed CPE

Convergence • LAN AND WAN • LAN only

Survivability • Robust, IP + geographic • Multiple points of failure

Reliability • 5 9’s for system• Solaris-based

• 4 9’s for system• Windows-based?

Technology Risk • Borne by service provider • Borne by enterprise

Management • Centralized system mgmt. • Mgmt. based on each system

2005 VoiceCon RFP: TCO Comparison

Hosted 31% less TCO than 9 system average–34% less than Avaya, 32% less than Cisco

Additional benefits–Carrier grade reliability and survivability–More flexibility to support change, i.e, adding/removing users, sites–Less risk: no technology lock-in, stranded assets

TCO only improves with the addition of sites and users

Case Studies

Page 16: Hosted PBX:  A Viable IP PBX Alternative?

16

State of Minnesota

Background–Large-scale multi-office deployment, 62K users–Offices interconnected by private network

Problems Addressed–Multi-layer administration –Manage call traffic across public and private networks

Key Drivers–Future-proofing to next decade–Open, standard CPE–Substantial TCO savings (voicemail)–Customized interface and services for different agency requirements

“This will further help the state meet current and future telephony needs.”“We will be able to increase the eligibility of state agencies to take advantage of the benefits of IP telephony, which will result in toll savings, circuit consolidation and lower administration costs."

Keith Payden, State of Minnesota Chief Information Officer

University of Kentucky

Background–18K students –Unsatisfied with Cisco Call Manager deployment

Problems Addressed–Networking existing equipment, IP PBXs, hosted users –IP PBX scalability

Deployment–Reloading Cisco phones with SIP for BroadWorks –Delivered by Lucent & Alltel

Key Drivers–Reuse of existing Cisco IP phones, switches, routers–Able to meet scalability needs• E.g., Solaris vs. Windows

–Carrier-grade service offering

Hosted and IP PBX: Coexistence

SIP Trunking– Provide connectivity to IP PBXs

– Save on capex: no need for PRI gateway

Virtual Services for Existing PBXs and IP PBXs– E.g., Click-to-dial, auto attendant, attendant console,

Enterprise-wide voice mail, ACD/call center, voice VPN

Hosted vs. IP PBX: Avaya “Sell” Report

Hosted: Steal ~15% of IP PBX market in next 4 years– Reasons:

• Broadband = more hosted competition (vs. Centrex monopoly)• IP = hosted parity with premises offers• Avaya poorly positioned for hosted

Future: Mobile Hosted PBX

Same Hosted PBX Application–Mobile handset looks like IP phone

–For existing and 3G networks

Extend Existing Services–Group mobile subscribers into an “enterprise”

Support for Dual Mode Handsets
