Global Services ranked as number one in the strategy category and also in
market presence category by Forrester Research. It also concluded that BT
Global Services is a "good choice for large multi-national corporations that
have a high proportion of their corporate sites in Europe and in larger cities
in the United States and Asia."
Forrester
Research has found that BT Global Services has become one of the world leaders
in the global wide area network (GWAN) services market. The report, ‘The
Forrester Wave: Global WAN Services, Q2 2007', ranked BT Global Services as
number one in the strategy category and number one in the market presence
category. Since 2005, BT has invested
heavily - both in its own global network and in acquisitions - to help it meet
the networked IT services requirements of multi-site organisations around the
world. Acquisitions have included 2005's £500m purchase of Infonet, a provider
of global managed voice and data network services in the Americas and Asia
Pacific, and the £175 million acquisition of Radianz, a leading extranet
provider, to significantly boost the reach of BT's network services. In April
2007, BT began integrating Comsat, a leading provider of data communication
services for corporations and public sector organisations in Latin America.
The
report looked at nine providers - only those that could offer global WAN
services in at least 25 countries and across three or more geographical regions
- and went on to say that BT Global Services had "the most ambitious plans for
new and enhanced global WAN and international internet protocol services in
2007-08." It also concluded that BT Global Services is a "good choice for large
multi-national corporations that have a high proportion of their corporate
sites in Europe and in larger cities in the United States and Asia."
