Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "The Business of Mobile VoIP: IP Voice Communications in the Enterprise" report to their offering.

Over the past several years, Voice over IP has become a cornerstone of business communications systems. The benefits that IP-based communications delivers is being extended to mobile devices through mobile VoIP, a solution which enables VoIP calls to be placed over a cellular data or Wi-Fi network from a mobile device. Business implementation of mobile VoIP is varied and is both, enterprise and individual driven. This report focuses on top-down enterprise-driven mobile VoIP, which In-Stat defines to be associated with an IP or hosted PBX solution.

VoIP is spreading from the fixed-line world to the mobile world. Usage is on the rise creating significant opportunity for mobile VoIP gateway equipment suppliers as expenditures in this space are expected to soar beyond the $6 billion mark in 2015, says In-Stat.

"Mobile VoIP has only recently begun being implemented in the business environment," says Amy Cravens, Market Analyst. "One of the key benefits of mobile VoIP for enterprises is extending desk phone functionality to mobile devices. Business-oriented solutions will essentially enable the users' cellphones to become an extension of their desk phones and will deliver, in addition to voice, a unified communications experience, including email, IM, and collaboration."

Business has been ranked at the top of a new Hosted VoIP and Unified Communications Provider Matrix released by ABI Research. New Global Telecom and Smoothstone IP Communications Corporation claimed the second and third spots.
