Review Software Channel Benchmarks: IDC's 2005 Software Margins Study / IDC Research:

This IDC study presents the results of a survey of 303 partners conducted in early 2005. It includes the gross margins that partners report they earn for reselling various types of software. The data is also segmented by partner type, size, and customer focus. "The latest IDC software margin benchmarks indicated that partners are still earning reasonable returns in most software application categories. However, software margins have generally declined over the last year for the VAR community. These partners may be shifting some of the margin from products to services to be more competitive and meet customer demand for a full solution.

Review U.S. Private Line 2004-2008 Forecast and Analysis / IDC Research:

This IDC study forecasts the U. S. private line market and its two major components, the local and long distance segments. IDC forecasts continued declines in both sectors. The long distance market will decline faster because of price competition and the adoption of flat rate pricing. The ILECs will lose share slowly as competitors continue to build up their local facilities. "The private line market is still an important segment for service providers. However, alternative technologies such as Ethernet, VPNs, and end-user expectations for lower prices will ensure this segment remains risky and unpredictable over the forecast period. Service providers must be flexible and innovative in providing creative solutions and customer care features to retain market share. " — Courtney Munroe, vice president, Telecom and IP Services.
