New Report By Wainhouse Research Describes Next Phase
in Video Network Management Software
in Video Network Management Software
Predicts Ten-Fold Growth from 2001 to 2006
September 4 2002, Brookline MA - Wainhouse Research today announced availability of a new market research report, "Video Communications Management Systems: Industry Analysis and Market Forecast," an in-depth study of the network management, call processing, and scheduling software products that comprise a whole new software space for the videoconferencing industry. The report, authored in collaboration with Austin, Texas-based analyst Alan Greenberg, details the growth of this new industry by major market segment through 2006. The report also includes an in-depth analysis of the market and technology trends affecting video management systems, as well as a discussion of both the major and emerging vendors.
The predicted growth will be fueled by increased adoption of "whole-network" management and monitoring, scheduling, and call processing software that deliver improved user experience, enhanced quality of service, and support for IP and mixed-IP/ISDN video deployments. "Video communications management is a very hot topic right now and a totally new market segment," states Andrew W. Davis, managing partner at Wainhouse Research. "We're hearing repeatedly from end users that they'd like a better understanding of the vendors, product capabilities, and potential return on investment. The growth of this software space for managing endpoints, bridges, gateways, gatekeepers, bandwidth, and other video-related products will make the end user experiences more positive, reliable, and cost-effective. As a result these products will help overcome past barriers to adoption and drive the growth of other segments of the industry."
Call processing is a relatively recent category development in the videoconferencing industry, enabling users to improve the likelihood of call connections and at the same time leverage bandwidth availability and overall network resources. Call processing provides an extra layer of directory services as well as features that emulate voice PBX's (call forward, transfer, hold, etc) and is the fastest growing application.
Video Communications Management Systems is over 200 pages in length and includes over 25 figures and tables plus detailed product matrices. Vendors profiled in depth include Applied Global Technologies, Avaya, Forgent Networks/Global Scheduling Solutions, Magicsoft, MVC, Polycom, RADVISION, TANDBERG, TODD Video Networks, VCON, Video Bureau, and VisionNex.
Video Communications Management Systems is available in two formats. The full report, which includes an Industry Analysis and Market Forecast, is $1,995, including hardcopy and electronic versions for unlimited internal distribution. The shorter version is an Industry Overview only, and is $995 in hardcopy.
Details, including a free executive summary and table of contents, are available on the company's web site, www.wainhouse.com.
