Understand an End-User’s Perspective • Customers fully understand the advantages of digital communications (cost reductions, better collaboration, mobility, etc.) • Traditionally, telecom services are hosted. Customers have only terminals (phones), so the resistance is low to telecom SaaS. • VoIP is not enough, the integration of all communication media is provided with Unified Communications. • Business customers use free communication tools to increase their availability, sacrificing security, services, and reliability. • Web/Email are dominant communication channels, phones must integrate with this Internet ecosystem. • Legacy communication tools (e.g. faxes) are still used by business partners - they must be integrated in the new communication channels. 3 VoipNow Platform Presentation
UC Opportunity for Service Providers • Huge market, more than US $15 billion* only for communications products, ten times larger for telecom services! • Crisis accelerates migration to VoIP (lower costs and increased productivity) • Convert SMBs from the old, legacy PBX to SaaS Unified Communications • Get a share from telecom business without massive investments (in fact, the most profitable share) • Integrate Unified Communications services with Business Class Email and Groupware, CRM, E-commerce • Immediately up-sell to hosting customers* Source: Wainhouse Research 10/2008 15billions 15 12.5 10 7.5 5 Value(billions USD) 8billions Traditional Hosting Market UC Market 4 VoipNow Platform Presentation
High ARPU for Service Providers • A Small Business can pay US $15/month for website hosting • Same SMB can spend US $6/month per business mailbox with groupware • Basic PBX only services start around US $15/month per extension! * • More advanced services like call queues (call center modules) are usually charged extra. • * Source: Packet8 (8x8, Inc. Nasdaq: EGHT) Small Business PBX plans start at US $25/extension (and this is not Unified Communications!) 5 VoipNow Platform Presentation
Hosted UC Market Overview • Market is maturing and growing fast. • Market started to be educated by large vendors (yes, they seized the opportunity). • Main target for hosted UC services – SMBs with up to 200 employees • It’s hard for large telecom operators to address the opportunity (not their core business). • High-bandwidth connections speed up deployments (we deal with real-time services) According to Radicati Group Report 6 VoipNow Platform Presentation
