Introduction

Abstract

This IDC Study uses results from IDC Asia/Pacific' s Communication Study, Telecommunications and WAN Study, Networking and Hosting Study, and Unified Communications Study 2009. This document identifies trends in corporate data and Internet access service uptake, network expenditure, and outsourcing by the Thailand small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). It also examines budgeting and service provider (SP) preference of companies on this segment.

According to Worajate Charoennish, communications research analyst, IDC Asia/Pacific "SMEs' behavior is changing. SPs will have to take a moment to respond to this change. Besides competition among telecommunications SPs, challenges from IT SPs that started to focus on the SME market is a factor that telecommunications SPs have to keep an eye on.".
