US : A new report from Unstrung Insider looks at the progress made in the field of Mobile Voice Over IP ( VoIP ) which is rapidly becoming a key solution amongst the leading mobile operators around the world. However, the company also advises that progress to an “all IP technology / solution” will become an ever increasing step in the evolution of Mobile VoIP.
Mobile VoIP is not just about cheap telephone calls. Currently a major advantage of VoiP is the opportunity to integrate it into other systems. The report “Mobile VoIP: A Disruptive Service Goes Mainstream” looks at what's driving mobile VoIP services and applications.
The report also focuses on the fundamental technological issues which new mobile VoIP companies may encounter and the required corrective actions.
Finally, this report profiles 12 mobile VoIP providers, exploring their strategies for tapping into the young and promising market for IP-enabled voice offerings.
"Although many mobile operators continue to block VoIP calls to protect their voice revenues, that strategy will not be sustainable," he says. "Sooner or later, mobile operators will be forced to deploy their own VoIP services, since next-generation networks such as Long Term Evolution (LTE) and WiMax are all-IP and do not support circuit voice."
-- Many mobile VoIP players are broadening into other applications, integrating with other systems, and stimulating further adoption.
-- New services such as voice-enhanced IM, voice mashups, and voice plugins are being used to build communities.
-- Operator resistance to mobile VoIP is gradually softening worldwide, as major incumbents such as T-Mobile drop their bans.
-- New Flash technology enabling peer-to-peer voice capability without requiring plugins or soft clients could be a game-changer.
-- Venture capitalists remain interested in disruptive mobile VoIP technology, which they view as still in its early days of development.
-- Security is an ever-present issue in wireless markets, but the WPA2
standard provides robust security.
