New TMNG Global Report Redefines the Voice Communications Marketplace and its
Evolution from Telephony to High Value Applications

ADVISORY, 2011-08-01 13:00 CEST (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —

WHAT: TMNG Global, a leading provider of professional services to the global
communications, digital media, technology, and financial services
industries, today released a new whitepaper entitled, –The Renaissance
of Voice: From Telephony to High Value Applications.– TMNG–s report
defines how the next generation of –voice as an application– has
potential to transform the basic functions of the enterprise, leading to
significant gains in productivity, efficiency, and quality of outcome.

WHY: New players are redefining the voice communications marketplace with
disruptive technologies and new business models, and yesterday–s battles
over pricing and service bundles are disappearing. Today, the real
economic driver is innovation. Just as voice has evolved from basic
telephony over copper wires to voice over IP, it is now evolving towards
voice applications that can run over multiple platforms and networks.
Consequently, the battles will increasingly be fought over features and
benefits of the applications; valued added services and accessibility;
and strategic partnerships. Within this roiling ecosystem, a
revolutionary business transformation is taking shape and voice has the
potential to rise from the ashes of commoditization to ignite a growth
market in new products and services for both consumers and enterprises.

One of the most significant implications is the opportunity to transform
the enterprise with communication-enabled business processes. New
applications offer companies the ability to integrate voice into
specific business functions as well as provide deep analytical insights
into business operations, offering companies a level of information they
have not had in the past. As some applications become game changers, the
most successful innovators will become acquisition targets. While no one
player will be able to navigate this new territory alone, the most
successful companies will be those who strike the right partnerships at
the right time. But the revolutionary nature of this business
transformation means that the stakes are high and the challenges
enormous.

WHO: Janet Hall, Sr. Consultant, TMNG Global and author of –The Renaissance of
Voice: From Telephony to High Value Applications– is available to share
her perspective on the re-invention of the new voice communications
category and theimplications for players that are positioning
themselves to reap the opportunities in this new ecosystem.
