Highlights
Datamonitor views the MNS market as extremely competitive, particularly among large telecommunications providers and conglomerate systems integrators. The most successful providers are those with a combination of excellent portfolio capacity, quality of services, customer relationship management and global reach, and solid financial stability.
While the vast majority of MNS revenue is driven by large enterprise customers, small to mid-sized enterprises are increasingly seeking out MNS as their networks also become more complex and difficult to manage. However, mid-market user sentiment varies to that of large enterprises.
Managed network services will continue to align with business objectives, although providers must adopt a more focused go-to-market approach and improve their execution capabilities for future success.
