Aberdeen's November 2007 benchmark report
Many enterprises are faced with complex wireless environments riddled with disparate mobile devices and incompatible carrier plans. Aberdeen's November 2007 benchmark report, The Real Return on Investment of Total Telecom Cost Management, reveals that nearly 80% of companies have formal telecom spend management programs in place to combat this very complexity. Leveraging these programs, Best-in-Class organizations were found to reduce their wireless costs by up to 40%. This is particularly relevant to enterprise mobile adoption, as 77% of Best-in-Class organizations have smart phones in their organizations that incur both voice and data charges.
