    • Network Cost Management Strategies

    Chip Wagner, CEO at Alsbridge says, "The high level of network costs coupled with the anticipated increase makes controlling total network spend a top-level imperative for all IT leaders, requiring them to scrutinize telecom costs and seek out every option for savings."

    With network services pricing continuing to decline and utilization continuing to increase, IT leaders have to consider and implement sourcing and benchmarking strategies that will help them control network costs and ensure effective service.
